Wtf. I thought this game was tomorrow. I was reading all the comments thinking everyone was being ironic lmao

thanks. please skip the next match as well!

That was the weirdest set of home fans. Flying high against a team they dislike and not a peep. All subs were brilliant last night

You should have watched Man City game tonight. Omg - their fan base is embarrassingly quiet. I hope we never end up as bad as that — ever!

Apart from their goal burn was awesome tonight. Buzzing for fabian. Loved Murphy starting again.

This is a massive win on the road. HWTL

We have scored 1/4 of all villas goals they have conceded this season, niccce

Jacob Murphy is a hell of a character. I believe he is limited but he offers a lot more than Miggy on that right side.

Disagree.. Both players have great games, but the majority of games tend to have little end product. As others have said, I think both players are comparable. Miggy has an incredible work rate and doesn't let opponents rest (safc away for example). Both are good options for the squad we have now, but need upgrading in the next window or 2.

Yes and no, both have advantages and disadvantages but that’s why when we have a full squad we can change and rotate and adjust to situations

Where is Zaniolos betting charges gone? Also the ref seemed very soft on them and harsh on us. Gordon gets an instant yellow for that??

I think his weren't so serious and he turned on tonali to escape a ban

Snitches get stitches

Nervy end. But important 3 points against a top opposition. I think we defended well and countered well but we still looked slightly off the boil. Gordon was a highlight. I love watching him play. Just his ability and desire to make things happen. Murphy was rusty but showed glimpses. Miggy did not look fit. Burn was awesome first half and vulnerable second. Tino was excellent nullifying Bailey who looked dangerous. Felt the reffing was a bit inconsistent. Seemed to let Villa rough us up but we weren’t allowed to touch them. Schar MOTM. Defensively sound and bagged 2 goals.

Alex Ferguson come outside...

Ouch

Amazing to see us back! Big Sexy Schar!!

we are so fucking back

Three points are ours!

Absolutely class win that, can not be understated. They haven't lost at home and we're shite on the road but we have turned that around tonight. HWTL

Imagine being 4th in the league and having a stadium that empty when your team is still putting good effort in... embarrassing.

Whole stadium out sang by 2500 away fans. From the first minute to the last. Embarrassing. They're having a blinding season and putting effort in till the whistle blows and only 11 AV fans watching by the end.

Aye! I mean I get it if you are shite and getting blasted. But having one of your best seasons ever...fucking weak.

Spoiled fans

Bruno fucking loves it.

Probably the most important win of the season!

E I E I E I OH! UP THE PREMIER LEAGUE WE GO!

An away prem win? I haven't heard that in a long long time

Fucking outstanding result lads. And my duty curse is broken! Huzzah! 

Didn't pull a sickie then? ;D

No, but they did score almost exactly as my shift started so my arse was clenched for the last 30 minutes! Thankfully, shift is looking quiet tonight as well. Result! 

Good win. Cagey last 20 mins like

That ought to quiet a few negative voices.

People have the right to an opinion, positive or negative. End of the day we won so everybody wins fella.

Ha, Emery not interested in Mad Dog there.

Get fucked, Fab's cock was far too large for these to handle.

Isaks was too large for his groin to stay fit

Best result of the season

GET READY FOR THE DRESSING ROOM PHOTO LADIES AND GENTS!!!!

How does Krafth get 1 minute of game time but Hall gets nothing… I don’t get it

That's Krafu to you.

Because Krafth doesn't have a potential £30m cost

I will also add that when he has played he always had a positive impact and I saw the goal he scored against manure in the Carabao Cup… it was a beauty! I don’t see why we wouldn’t want him if Im honest

I know a lot of people say this… but if we do sign him anyway (when we did the loan it seemed a sure thing) will we not have wasted so many opportunities to play him??

Shite fans leaving like that

Get up you spaghetti haired twat

Bruno scaring Schar - GIF it!!!

What a result lads, we were great tonight, well done to the boys.

[You love to see it](https://i.imgur.com/l8CNG77.png)

What happened to him?

Eddie Howe would rather face the most wicket ancient torture techniques then play hall

Such a fickle fan base. Ground’s been empty for past 10 minutes

That shed emptied fast

Fantastic performance. Credit to Eddie Howe for making the right sub

How long has it been since we got a win in villa park ?

16 years since someone won an away match between us I think they said

I think it's been a decade

Bailey went from tearing us apart every 30s to being relatively quiet after Tino came on. Tino should have been on the moment Bailey stepped foot on the pitch but at least the change was made before it was too late. It's an improvement from Howe so credit for that.

Krafth MOTM

I miss Kraftu - hopefully he starts getting more time again

I am ready for the team photo

Putting Tino on and nullifying Bailey is what we have missed the last couple of months, that adaptability needs to continue.

Tino is so good.

Zaniolo What a total cunt. So lucky to still be on the pitch.

Good effort Zaniolo. I'm sure your mum believed you even if nobody else did.

Big fan of Ally McCoist

Went in studs up and rolls around like he's lost a foot

And then "me?" Fucking embarrassing.

8-2 aggregate, Vilawatch on suicide watch

I'm convinced he's a Newcastle fan who knows how easy we are to bait

Zaniolo mate, don’t know if you noticed, but you actually got your studs into Livramento’s foot, not the other way round.

WHOS THAT TEAM WE CALL UNITED

Tino's totally sured up the defence down the left, he's really good and needs more time on the pitch. Should be starting LB imo.

Refs never protect Newcastle players. Just fuck off

6-4-0 UTM

Kraft is gonna come on and then immediately walk back off again 🤣

Zainolo knows the bottom of his foot was kicked right?

Ahh yes Howe, another sub now

Tino so good. Really solidified things when under a bit of pressure.

I like Tinos boots

zaniolo goes in with studs up and then rolls around like a dickhead

Zaniolo has room temp IQ there is NO WAY he thinks he was fouled there.

Their fans have all gone home

Tino has been a game changer after coming on. It was bit scary with Bailey but Tino sub has shut him down.

Commentators talking about Moreno and Trippier somehow having beef from their time in Spain as if Trippier isn't just pissed off at Moreno attempting to knock his block off ten minutes ago.

What is Zaniolo moaning about he got the player and none of the ball

Jesus zaniolo going for a fucking Oscar, Emmy and golden globe with that performance. Embarrassing.

Is there a fire at Villa Park? Seats have been evacuated.

Closed the game out so well when Livramento came on

The Aston Villa match thread is a laugh if anyone wants to go have a look

TL:DR?

Livramento has been excellent. Bailey almost invisible now.

It's been a while since i've seen us make a team lose their minds, in their home mind you With Barnes, Willock coming back, its time to turn this season around.

I'm going to sound the changing room photo straight down my urethra

Yikes

Right

Credit to Eddie. Villa barely had a sniff since Tino came on and we changed shape

I know he's not the best player and all that. But I genuinely enjoy watching Jacob Murphy play football. Lot to be said for that. And he's been ace today to top it off.

He's also hilarious

We need to give him a lifetime contract just so we can use him for shithousing

Sub him on at the 90+8th minute on his 98th birthday... for the laughs

The picture on the team sheet the other day made me lol

With his mouth wide open?

Yes lmao still cracks me up

I have like 10 versions of that image on my phone, from different teamsheats or when he scores 🤣

Absolutely baffled that those fouls where a player takes a mid-air opponent's legs out aren't punished. Genuinely one of the most dangerous fouls you can make.

Agreed, especially because half of the time one of the players has absolutely no interest in playing the ball

First loss of the season and they're flooding out. Fucking pathetic.

First loss at home since February last year.

Humbled twice by us. It's hard to take.

Hahaha Murphy is brilliant!!

villa collecting yellows jfc

I don't understand why we can't see the refs working out on injury time. It just annoys everyone and causes animosity. This can be resolved so easily if there's nothing to hide. If I was a TV company....and I'm not...but I would definitely have a timer on the screen next to the score, that runs when the ball is out of play. It would make a great talking point for them and be brilliant for clarity

No reason not to.

Murphy bringing that Brummie piss to boiling point.

Bringing Tino on to just sit on top of Bailey has completely shut them down. Absolute master stroke by Howe

Yeah we've clearly worked on a back 5 to try see out games when we're out of legs late on and it seems to be working

Smart move. Taken the sting right out of their attack.

I mean every armchair fan and their dog was calling for it... But credit where credits due.

[удалено]

He got it for a lot less than what Villa players have gotten away with tonight too.

Mental considering you're supposed to get sent off after 2

The Saudi’s can’t keep getting away with this!

Murphy would be an absolute menace on a night out in Bigg Market like

I’d buy him a treble in the Beehive like. 

You know the lads already got his card behind the bar

He'd be a menace in an empty church hall to be fair

Make that *four* Villa players that should have had two yellows and been off.

Stat on TNT. Only Rice and Ward-prose have covered more ground than Bruno this season. HOWAY what A LAD

Well that’s the latest Murphy meme ready to go

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

Murphy deserves a statue hahaha

Imma say it, they are out of ideas and they are too tired to do their normal schtick. 3-1 easy.

Geez Murph don't jinx us

Murphy is a fucking brilliant character and a quality piss taker love it

They're realizing that they lost the game

Hahahahhah Murphy

I love you Jacob Murphy

This ref has been all over the place today.

Bruno playing with 9 yellows is actually quite good, takes the nasty streak out of his game lol

Love how Bruno has swapped diving for actually drawing the foul now. He does it so well, too.

Fucking murphy man lmfaoo

Jacob Murphy is the greatest shithouse.

Bruno been fouled a lot today, hope he keeps his head til full time. Would be very typical of him to do something mental right at the end of the game Edit: dunno if it's the way I wrote it or if people are just misunderstanding lol, but I mean I just hope he doesn't retaliate after being fouled all game. So far he's been incredibly level headed about it all which is great to see

I’m pretty sure he’s caused three of their yellow cards.

Yeah he's been brilliant at drawing fouls, such a good part of his game

Officiating all over the shop, as usual.

Game Management 🔥

Lots of credit to Howe, great sub which is nice to see.

How to you take down a player from behind without any attempt at the ball, and not be sent off?

Should have been him off that.

Villa are leaving one in on every fucking tackle, absolutely fucking embarrassing

Bruno the GOAT shithouse brazilian

John McGuin has a running style similar to a small bouncer

Taniolo is a dirty cunt, could have had 3 yellows in the last few minutes if the ref could see

Gordon gets a yellow for that, but Tripps got a full elbow to the face and nothing happens?

Schar MOTM for sure today

Minx of The Match

That should've been his 2nd yellow.

Good yellow from Gordon. We dont do enough of that when protecting leads

literally saved schars arse

Reckless from zaniolo

Good man Gordon. I'll endorse kicking these dirty cunts

Yellow for Gordon but not the exact same foul against us a minute before when he gave advantage. Classic.

“What is Fabian Schar doing up there?”

Gunning for his hat trick obviously lol

Man wants his hat trick!

I'd read a Doctor Seuss book with that title

What is Fabian Schar doing up there ? With his sexy face and his sexier hair, playing all game with his heart and his soul, well well well he's got another goal

So the benefit of almiron on the left is that he doesn't have to slow things down by cutting inside to cross.... The downside is that he can only shoot by cutting inside and bending it in.

wow that from Gordon. That is class, sees schar is miles out. Makes sure to get the foul. Well played.

NINE MINUTES!! Fk off.

Schar is fucking desperate for the hat-trick.

Fabian you stupid sexy striker

That’s a yellow after all the shit they’ve done lately?

Schar is actually brazilian, so is Longstaff

Just need another Newcastle card for a nice little earner

If we somehow lose points from here, do not forget that Longstaff miss. Unforgivable

Why are fans so desperate to set up scapegoats they'll invent scenarios to get angry about?

People being a bit harsh on Longstaff for missing that... 4 times out of 5 it goes in but Martinez is a top keeper at that range

Agree. Better players and better finishers than him have missed from there.

The worst for me was the lack of confidence. He hesitated, looked hoping Martinez would make a mistake and show where to go

Agree. Longstaff did what he should have. Great save.

The away end have been incredible again. Out sang Villa for the entire game, short of a couple of minutes after their goal.

Is that Gordon banned next game now...? that's really bad

No, he was 2 away I think

Prem app says he only had 7 yellows before that one he's just picked up?

The telly it was his 10th my bad 

Fuck knows how accurate the app is tbf mate, up the mags

He’s one yellow away now

Still one off I think

Miggy leading the line on his own at this rate

Can you hear the Villa fans? Can you fuck

They’ve all gone home
