Arsenal v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

We’re going to lose and still be 9 points clear of 6th spot. We have just gone through the worst part of our schedule. We will come back from this.

Yeah this.

Title still on I think.

It was never about the title as nice as it is to dream. We are 3rd because we deserve to be. A CL spot and a cup would be delightful this year. That is very much still on. One defeat doesn’t change that at all.

Still not going long.It's cost us this half

[Smithy]

On the plus side, if the results stay the same for the last 5 mins elsewhere, we've had an absolutely atrocious night ourselves, but we've only lost one point to both Chelsea and Man Utd, who were both playing at home to teams they were expected to beat.  It could have been a lot worse.

Not much of a silver lining, but I'll take it!

[Crown Hill]

Concentrating on Saturday now!!

6 points from Man U at home, Chelsea and Arsenal away is superb. Tonight is one defeat. Proud of the lads for what we have achieved so far.

Indeed.
Even the fixture computer has been a ****** to us this December.

That drop from Martinez was the turning point. He has cost us dearly a few times this season but this was the most pivotal.

If Man U win now, this is your fault.

This. The "told you so" noise from the likes of Jonathan Wilson and the xG tossers will be deafening no doubt, but we've just won 11 out of 12 games. 11 out of fucking 12.

I am the only person who thought it was a foul, aren't I? Like I don't think it was great keeping, but he had an elbow in his face.

[Ian.]

Think we know why we haven’t seen much of Garcia.

[PeterWithesShin]

Is Nass there to rage sack in London again?

Totally agree with you

I agree, VAR would have chalked it off at the other end

I’m pretty sure if Konsa had an elbow in Reya’s face and we’d have scored it would have been a foul.

[Rigadon]

Garcia isn’t good enough then.
