Diably man of the match, played excellent, chased back, tackled and tried to make things happen. He gave us some much needed intensity. With no McGinn or Ramsey we needed someone else with spirit.

If you can't win, don't lose so that's a handy point.

Stupid defensive line up from Emery to start with, we could do with him not making our problems even worse with self inflicted daft decisions. But his subs improved us, and we were the better team second half, and deserved the point.

Well done Villa. They’re really good at home, I think they’ve only lost twice.

If Diaby and Zaniolo find some form that could be the difference for us in the run in

Diaby should've started. Caused them endless issues in the second half and lovely assist.

Zaniolo is so Italian isn't he. Nice finish and then spends the rest of the game trying to get sent off.

Both "goals" were handball. Would've been a travesty to lose it after the second half.

Beat Wolves and this is a very good point. Spurs got West Ham away in two games and they'll certainly struggle with corners and their free kicks if they're whipping them under Vicario's crossbar.

A brilliant point. Thought we’d get an absolute shoeing today. Well down Villa.
Get some players back now for the Dingles.

West Ham really are the footballing equivalent of irritable bowel syndrome.  Horrible club, horrible manager, vile place, crap stadium, entitled fans.  Stay in your lane.

We really only have ourselves to blame for not returning with all 3 points. West Ham were there for the taking but we slept through the first half. Unai's team selections again raise a few questions. Thankfully we didn't get cheated at the end.

So much time with VAR, then they show a clip that removed all doubt - why not start with that

Delighted with that point, because we weren’t great again. Brilliant work from Diaby for the goal.

Could be a vital point, but bloody hell we need to up our performance levels. We spend so long being ponderous and lacking purpose. Hopefully the international break gives us a chance to reset a bit. Both disallowed goals are the right decision, but pretty lucky.
