Need to win this. Not even getting a draw out of Fulham and Spurs combined was extremely terrible. Failing to get a win out of those two plus Burnley would be, frankly, unthinkable.

So, here it is. Fucking win Villa.

Indeed we need to win this one.

Do you think any of them would have had a few jars last night? Or do players even drink anymore? Is it all Huel and macrobiotics?

This time a decade ago the Leicester lads drank beetroot shakes and went into cryochambers between games to win them the league. Not exactly steak and chips for dinner, and Phil Collins on the home hifi anymore.

We need more Jack Grealishes.

Blame the sports scientists and their "marginal gains" stats!

After the reaction after the Spurs game I hope we field an even weaker team full of youth players.

Two years ago after we had qualified for the CL and had the after season awards, McGinn was seen at a canalside bar after having a few with some friends.

However we haven't qualified yet and so I hope they are off any buzz juice until after the final.

Just need to win, secure CL, and then Unai can focus on analysing Freiburg's last 40 games.

I hope Fulham beat or at least draw against Bournemouth at home today. You'd think Man City will beat Brentford at home today?

Anthony Taylor will be the referee for this weekend's Premier League fixture between Burnley and Aston Villa.

Villa have won just 𝐎𝐍𝐄 of their last 𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄 PL games with Taylor in charge

He is a horrible ref for us, definitely a closet bluenose.

Just win the fucking game.

Liverpool have dropped points again so 4th is in our sights.

He's already done it.
Let's not forget Man City only won 1-0 at Turf Moor a few weeks back. Expect a tough game, take nothing for granted.
As for Liverpool at home, our last game at Villa Park with all four stands open for the next 15 months, a beautiful home win to  send the lads off with a cheer.

Taking the piss out of Arnie Slob for his fireworks comment just adds to the fun of a Villa win.

Any chance of seeing the lesser spotted Allyson?
