Aston Villa vs Brentford Post-Match Thread

[AlexAlexCropley]

Rogers my motm. Imperious.

[Risso]

Got a bit nervy in the second half but I don’t think their goal should have stood.

Why? Didn't seem anything wrong with it

Foul in the build up, not sure they even looked at it.

What's this thing called a "win"?

[eye digress]

To be honest, it looked to me like a performance not hugely dissimilar from some on our recent run (Bournemouth, Palace), but with the rub of the green (penalty given, sneaks in, favourable VAR decision for the third, etc.).

So still some way to go, but better, despite the second half jitters.

Not a foul for me. Certainly less controversial than our third goal so, for once, don't think we have too much to moan about. I didn't even find myself getting too worked up by Brentford today, and they're usually snide little bastards. Imagine it might have been different if they were trying to hang on for a win or draw.

Great result thought we played really well for the most part - you could see the players relaxed into it - even the second half subs.

Thought Mings and Rogers were both excellent - thought Watkins, McGinn, cash and Bailey were also all very good.

For the first 55 best we played all season - and we looked like scoring most times we went forward.

2 more wins in the next 2 and we’ll be in a strong place again.

Loved it tonight especially abandoning all the mucking around at the back!

Mings and Digne were superb. Digne has probably been our best player this season. Surprised at the criticism for McGinn. He played well.

And of course Rogers is back with a bang just as I transferred him out of my team.

Yes, felt a lot like the Bournemouth game actually.  We should have been easily two up at halftime in that game.

The McGinn / out of play call goes against us in one and the Watkins / offside goes for us in the other.

Did we?

Crisis over we are still class Unai is still a managerial God no need to panic we are back up there and going to finish in the top 4 again and qualify for the CL as well as winning the CL this season everybody relax

On McGinn? Never a foul for me. Brentford player won the ball cleanly

I’m not getting too hung up about their ‘spell’ in the second half.  They had the goal on target and that was it.  I always felt we had more goals in us.

Oh yes! So refreshing!

[Scovilla]

I could not watch the game. Happy about the result but also happy to read all the good things about Tyrone. So glad he is back.
Let’s beat southampton now.
