When Marlo said we’d be rattled, I didnt think it would be by his chest.

We've got Brailsford, thats his kinda TUE trick isn't it?

Typical broadcasters completely overexposing the viewers to somebody because they get a few good comments. Same reason Micah Richards was so ubiquitous the past couple of years.

Personally I like him. It’s nice to hear someone who doesn’t feel the need to comment on every tiny detail but still manages to be enthusiastic.

Certainly compares favourably to miseries like Lee Dixon and Beglin, who spend most of the game moaning and cracking on like they’ve got the most unpleasant job in the world.

It’s like watching it with some bloke in the pub.

Same. Nice enough guy, but he’s too £#%&!ing nice.

Jumps in too early too. That Hojlund goal had just hit the back of the net and he was all “you know, life is funny sometimes, it really is”

Alright, Ally. Just give us a second mate. You’ll get your chance

The most surprising thing 25 minutes in is that Villa needed a fluke to score.

Game done and I suspect that’s Ten Hag done too. He’s not turning it round from this point.

We can't play football to any £#%&!ing degree. It's embarrassing. Players are @#%&!s, but we who's picking Dalot at left back every £#%&!ing week?

I can multitask, Pal

Was a mistake that, was catching up with the thread and multi quoted by mistake....

Alt coms is dire content though....

Make no apology for mine. If we hadn’t changed tactics we would have been heavily beaten.

Can you throw up a few quotes from people (or you) saying "Buzzing with this" please?

Maybe a few saying "Wow, that ball just flying past Onana - could've happened to anyone"

Or "Lads, it's Aston Villa - we should be happy being only 2 down at home"

You'll have tonnes to choose from, obviously.

Cheers

It's £#%&!ing amazing what a result like that does. Changed the whole family dynamic, kids (and me) happy as £#%&! from being proper pissed off. Up the reds.

Exactly the same pal. Have tried to minimise the impact united has on my and the fam given how woeful we are but then boom.
