Fenerbahçe v Aston Villa post-match thread

Phenomenal. Especially when you think we managed to rest Pau and Konsa. Victor Lindelof - signing of the season.

Pleased others are seeing it.
I’ve said for weeks how good he has been and his integration into the team has been seamless.

I don’t think anyone thinks ‘oh, no’  when they see his name in the starting 11.

Safe journey home Aldridgeboy and all of the other Villa fans out there tonight

[aj2k77]

That was a performance full of heart and fight.

[PaulTheVillan]

Loved the commitment tonight.

Bizot outstanding.

Mings & Lindelof I thought were excellent.

Sancho needs a bit more aggression.

Guessand needs a new job.

[steamer]

When you can go to one of the most hostile grounds on earth, play one of your first choice back five and with your best midfield decimated by injuries, and pull off a result like that - you belong.

Sancho even paid a couple of weeks of his wages by turning a draw into a win.
100% from me
Brilliant, battling result. Proud of every one of them.

2nd half was a hard watch at times, should have been more comfortable that it was, but the only thing that matters is we're in the last 16. Tyrone was immense, absolutely love the bloke and so was Bizot, joint MOTM to them.

Yep, great result and has confirmed our spot in the top 8 which is all that counts really.  Didn't think it was a great performance as we gave the ball away far too often and we will have to improve when we come across better opposition. 

Under the circumstances that was a very good result and performance. When we come across better opposition we will hopefully have something like a midfield to chose from.

[N'ZMAV]

Sancho did much better tonight playing on the right.

Mings, Bizot were superb.

a scrappy, fighting win and clean sheet in Turkey is not to be sniffed at.

Well done Unai

[Meanwood Villa]

I love everyone in the Villa squad and all of you too. Let's win it all!!

[Holy Trinity]

Great win, that's probably our hardest away gane this season

[Ianu]

Don’t know about anyone else, but I got the feeling if Sancho had had more game time, he would have scored more than one tonight. He’d have been a second quicker which would have made all the difference. Of course, he’s got to earn it.

But Maybe we need to play him into form. I haven’t checked but it feels like we’ve spent more time hoping Guessand makes it.
Maybe we’ve been backing the wrong one..?

[KevinGage]

Ollie wasn't at his best tonight.

But hopefully that agricultural tackle from their plank of a centre half doesn't result in him missing much (any) game time.

If we had Don, Mad Jhon, or Diaby etc we could prob cope.

But we've got less options for that spot than we had two years ago.

[Woody17]

True, but I wouldn’t back Guessand in a one horse race.

[Clampy]

Good win, very good performance and it should have been more than one. Marvellous.

[nordenvillain]

Real back to the walls stuff there in the second half. Can't believe we have to go to Newcastle in less than 72 hours.

We don't, it's 88 hours till we play Newcastle.

[Ducksworthy]

Marco. Bizot.
