Was only able to watch from just after we equalised. The commentator kept saying the ball 'brushed Havertz's arm' and 'his arm got in the way.' Jeez, it was such a deflection he might as well have thrown the ball into the net.

The last few weeks it feels like we’re getting our mojo back from last season.

What a match! Really proud of the squad today.

Matchthread was embarrassing.

We really weren't that bad first half, was a massive overreaction from the usual suspects.

Also Emirates seems to be one of those big away grounds where we don't have endless trauma. Won there in the early years and spectacularly last season. At 2-0 down we'd have never done this sort of comeback at Old Trafford or St James Park so that's where the players kept believing from winning last year.

In the end a deserved point and should be huge as we'll have more confidence in the remaining away games to dig out some hard fought wins.

Not seen what he has stated, but he knows any touch by hand / arm is handball for the scorer has he has had a couple ruled out for it.

Proud of this side.  Some  Villa sides would have been a soft touch and its all over but we were excellent tonight. Delighted and the good run continues.

Disappointed that the cameras chose to focus on him when that's so obviously what he was after, the attention-seeking twat.
