I'm getting worried now. What if they go back to Sheffield United and allow their goal thereby relegating us and disqualifying us from the CL?
If 115 stick I am sure it will open the doors for ClaimsRUs army.

Other than football Berne is a lovely town. I mooched around for about 3 hours this morning walking along the river “hairpin” and climb up to the bridge, walked across it to the museum and then back into town. Parliament building and architecture around Kornhaus is breathtaking. Had a coffee in the Pyrenees Cafe and thought about a chicken masala in the Everest Balti but decided to have a Turkish doner in the Ararat  Kebab house. Nice day.

I was in Bern and Switzerland for my first time this summer (did some inter-railing - I m too old for that some says but fun anyhow). Sceneries (buildings) a bit fairy tale from the middle ages someplaces aint? Very nice and safe places. A bit expensive but not that bad compared to most of west Europe.
As for the game, defence more solid when konsa at Right back and Carlos in the middle, I like Carlos but yeah prone to a mistake. We are a wonderful team to watch now, long it will/ should continue. Tielemans superb again, Onana to be a handful for any team to come up against us and Duran showing incredible skill again. I still think Watkins should start ahead of Duran as he brings so much to our attacking moves. Durans celebrations, he coudnt care less about a yellow as a consequence, i like that and Emery did kind a support him in that after all i did read somewhere I think  :)

Got back this morning, then a mad dash back up the M40 to work.

Brilliant away trip - Great country, great cities, VERY clean, but also VERY expensive. Also can't believe the innuendo served up by the club itself regarding their club name/stadium name.... Assuming you've seen the photo of a poster/newsletter from the club shop doing the rounds with a very dubious sounding headline?? It can't be accidental surely?!

I also cannot believe that nobody has mentioned the 'deconstructed hotdog' that they were selling in the away concourse. It consisted of a large sausage and a small round bread roll on a plate laid out separately. When the two were put together, it certainly didn't resemble a hotdog!  🍆👀

Great performance all round. I was a little nervy pre-match that the occasion and the pitch might get the better of them, but they're better than that now - Who are we to doubt them!? Comfortable win, which sets us up nicely for the visit of Bayern.

All topped off by bumping into Crouchy on my flight to Zurich yesterday morning! Lovely bloke, and a nice little precursor to a cracking day.

The ref should have clocked Onana's handball straight away. Poor Durán, the lad was blessing himself and pointing to God in the sky. The ref must have been a heathen.

I still can't see conclusive proof that Ollie handled his, but he didn't seem to complain at all when it was ruled out.

This is a stupidity with the play on and let VAR sort it out later rule. It was an obvious handball and the game should have been stopped there. As it was that was another 15 sec or so of wasted effort and injury risk. This is what I think Unai was pissed off about

Ha!
Bumped into Crouchy too!
Jeez, he's taller than I remember!
He was delightful and great for a chat and a photo.
And he was delighted with the Villa performance and result!
Looking forward to "another one"!

Crouchie did a one-liner on the coverage that made me laugh out loud.

I'm not sure it works in this format.

They went over to Rio for a comment and there was silence.

Then they got his mic working.

Crouchie pipes in that he had turned his mic off.

Funny in the moment because it was unexpected.
