Aston Villa v PSG Post-Match Thread

[steamer]

It's a real shame that our substitutions had the reverse effect intended. Ramsey and Watkins barely touched the ball. As for Asensio's one moment....he telegraphed where he was going to shoot but Donnarumma had already committed to attempting a point-blank save. Easy to say but Asensio has it in his locker to feint on the shot, pull it wide to his right and run through on goal to slot the ball into an empty net.

We just couldn't build-up a head of steam for the last 10 minutes. PSG deserve credit for not allowing that to happen and they continued to look dangerous on the break. But unless Rashford was physically phucked, I would have left him on as he was beginning to purr.

Hard to be too despondent though, we gave our all and showed battle and quality. Just hope the players can pick themselves up for the weekend as if we replicate that, we'll funeral the Toon.

Well, he's an 80's kid (BV). Probably still respects the Toffees from then.

I barely have time with ours any more, let alone others.

You're a busy man, Lee, that'd be why. Not like BV.

I can picture him now, lounging about in his pool (probably naked) sipping a cocktail and nursing a fine Cuban cigar.

I wish. If I'm not watching the game, other supporters can sometimes provide a more balanced view of how the game's going than some of our match threads.

BV only does one youtube video a week so has plenty of spare time.

It's what prompted Rory to upgrade to Premium on YouTube.

Trust you to make a reasonable point. Very mature!

If I've got my trousers round my ankles and the baby oil open, I don't want to sit through adverts!

I think he divides his time between a select handful - SELCO_R_US, Roker-Roar, Red-Cafe and Blue Kipper (Everton).

Close enough, ReadyToGo, FredTissue, FollowFollow (and occasionally FMTTM).

Cash did well enough, as I knew he would.

Were the huns on our side tonight?

Just back from what was the best game of football I've ever seen! We were incredible, and so were all our fans - so much singing all the way through the game. Ref gave some strange decisions - very inconsistent.

[rob_bridge]

Cash played really well. So did Konsa.

Pretty much, and appreciative of our second-half efforts.

When Skies Are Grey was a great Everton forum back in the day (now defunct), but I rarely look at GOT unless they're signing one of our players.

[Hookeysmith]

so anyway, who ballsed up the CL music?

Hookey's new job at Villa Park. Early days, takes a while to get used to.

Lol  I wishing was that important.  What a game and spectacle for the TV watchers. I have never seen a team move the ball from back to frontal quickly as them. And for us to come from 0-2 back to win 3-2 was just astonishing

So proud of them all.

Think I can probably guess why, but fair enough!
