That was rather enjoyable. The Holte was absolutely bouncing on the way out.

Arsenal fans represent the pinnacle of undeserved entitlement. Which is why watching this is just delightful. Enjoy.

The way we hunted down and kept the ball in motion for our winning goal was simply magnificent, and I think involved all of our subs. Including Sancho.
We were brilliantly brave in the last 10 mins. Kept Arsenal under pressure and of course absolutely overwhelmed them in that final scramble.

Great victory.

Just think for the first time in ever practically every team on the globe would think 'Villa Away - shit'

A fantastic well-deserved victory! Proud of the whole team on and off the pitch.
Shame for the Arse fans in K2 on their big day out...not!

What a finish to the game!  Thought the chance had gone, but it fell perfectly for Emi and euphoria erupted.  I was fully expecting the VAR official to be combing through the footage for minutes trying to find a way to rule it out, but it was pretty painless in the end.

I think it's been noticeable this season in the games against Manchester City and Arsenal that we have been able to keep the ball as well as they have for decent periods of play.  We couldn't really do that before against those sort of teams and would spend long periods without the ball.

Very true.
