They might have had the better xG today.

But Villa had the X Factor - Morgan Rogers.

Hilarious. As the game ends the lass on Sky Sports just said “we have to keep talking about them until they drop off”. Seriously love, do fuck right off.

Maybe but Arsenal and Citeh control games. We don't, that could be/surely must be intentional to agree but I'm not sure how sustainable it is to keep winning by the odd goal. Rogers can't play out of his skin in every game.
Let me check last two Aresenal results? Oh yes single goal wins against Wolves and Everton.

Neither did in their defeats to us.

Yep, Yanited played far better than those teams did at VP. This run is incredible but our margin for error does seem a lot less than those two.

Also, it's like people weren't paying attention when Man U and before them Liverpool built empires that lasted years on finding a way to win, no matter what it took, different ways to win. How many times did Man United look at best average and then still win in the Ferguson era (especially against us)?

We never do well over the Christmas period. Never beat Manure. Who gives a fuck how we played. This is highly unusual and most certainly a fabulous result. Whodoos, who fucking cares. Woohoo, enjoying the ride and very very happy/ pissed.

One day we'll learn to enjoy 10 wins in a row and not look for negatives.

Slightly off it passing through midfield today but we seem to have developed a team who just dig in and win by any means.
When you win with 2 world class goals against this lot it just makes it even sweeter.

Might explain why Alan is no longer managing.

I feel in a few games we've applied the least effort to win. This wasn't one of them

He’s surprisingly good on that show.

Reminds me of all those times when we played really well against these ****** but ended up losing the game, usually to a dodgy pen or deflected goal. They can fuck off back to Salford with their better performance wrapped up in their kit bag.

Just watched Emery’s post match interview  there’s not another coach on the planet I’d rather have at Villa. Absolutely brilliant

10 in a row takes some doing at any level but where we are operating it’s incredible. And number ten against that lot? At Christmas time? Sorcery.
