Aston Villa 3-3 Liverpool Post Match breather

[Neil Hawkes]

Unai was already planning for the next game by taking off Luiz & Tielemans, incase we need the win.

What a game and in the end unlucky not to win - if the other team pips us to 4th, then no regrets and still a step up to the next level of European football (although I'll be hugely disappointed).

[taylorsworkrate]

Yeah. I suspect if you look at match threads from the forums of basically any club that has forums, they'll be very similar to ours. With any fanbase you'll have a mixture of the over positive, over negative and those in the middle. It's just human nature

[Scovilla]

Shame it’s not all 3 but could spurs still do us if they draw tomorrow?

No they have to win.

That is why this point is massive.

Bat shit crazy match.

We must be the closest you can get to getting 4th without actually getting there yet.

Given that we couldn't get two points tonight then yes, you're right. What a draw means is that Spurs have to win both of their last two games regardless.

I hate having to cheer on Wankchester City, but...

[AlexAlexCropley]

And a word for Bailey who was brilliant again. His maturity is there for all to see when Duran equalized. Went to the kid, tapped his chest to say well done but get up we have a job still to do. Really impressed with him all round.

Agreed, I thought he was the best player on the pitch

[Dave]

So proud of them tonight.

No you weren't. Earlier they were a "disgrace" apparently.

That Alison save from Diaby at the end was trop draw - Diaby was unlucky there and deserved a goal for his effort.

[pauliewalnuts]

Now thats whats im talking about!!!

Fucking passion and desire thats what winners look like and thats the villa we know exist!

So proud of them tonight.

Well done diaby for sticking to it he was terrible 1st half but  absolutely sensational  2nd.

Duran fucking love you 😍😍😍😍😍

Ha ha ha, Jesus Fucking Christ.

[Bad English]

Fucking massive point! Lots of energy relatively speaking. Spurs are going to lose anyway.

Edit. Diaby needs to bed-in, have a pre-season, a pair of glasses....

It is but I think we deserved all 3 there, I honestly think that was our best performance for a while, created loads and looked dynamic and energetic after being 'leggy' for a while.

Durans 2nd was the goal we desperately needed, one that was a bit of luck going our way.

Yes, we did deserve the win. We can go and beat Palace instead just for fun as we will already be in the Champions League by then.

Aston Villa captain John McGinn to Sky Sports: "It's a brilliant effort towards the end. We got a bit of luck. It's been a tough few weeks with lads coming back and playing through the pain barrier. This place got us going.

"Big Jhon [Duran] is a bit nuts at times, he's a nightmare to play against. I don't think it's been difficult for us as players.

"There's some of us that have never been close to the Champions League in our life. The manager has a no-excuse mentality. People have written us off and we've floated under the radar. We'll have our Man City tops on tomorrow."

I couldn’t believe he kept it out

I completely misheard McGinn then.

One for the xG fans.....

We had the second highest xG of any team this season tonight with 3.53

[PaulWinch again]

Yep it was top class.
