Aston villa v Manchester United - 11/02/24 4:30pm KO - Official Match Thread

We need to start going after teams. We let these £#%&!s back in with our dawdling.

Hojlund 😁

He bloody loves it the lad

Back to that dribbling mong Merson in the studio who was telling us how wonderful Villa are going to brush shitty United aside.

So, so satisfying. Villa fans are among the most irritating in the country. Absolute #@&%!s.
Love it when players get angry at an opposition player who’s getting subbed for not hurrying . What do they expect him to do, sprint as fast as he can?

Still should nick it in a game that’s pretty much normal for the season , a bit shit and enough for pundits and others alike to call for ETHs head.

Called it almost perfectly

Thought Onana was mom

Onana's best game for us so far.

Villa were in a title race? Shut the £#%&! up

So much to admire about Ollie Watkins today.....

Now to crank up that goal difference

Ten Hag needs to get back to what he was doing last season, changes to affect games. He waited to long today, we scored and just sat on it. Makes the change and we settle down.

He did ok but wasn’t MOM IMO. Mainoo and Casemiro were decent. Hojlund rashford and Garnacho pressed when needed.

Think dalot for the individual ply on his cross for the goal . Almost made it harder to not score when you put it on a plate for the attacker

Goal difference 0

How can people get so upset by wimmin commentators when people like him, Redknapp and Owen are still regulars

Shades of the legend Welbeck about him alright

Agree.

Looked quite good tbf.

Thought the same tbh.

Made much more of an effort to dominate his area instead of retreating to his line.

Couple of really good saves too.

Huge huge win
A defeat would probably have ended top 4 but now it’s back on

As with most of our wins this season the performance wasn’t that good and we can’t control a game when leading to save our lives but this was a result above all else game

More injuries in defence is certainly not ideal

£#%&!ing hell, just when you thought that had managed to go 10 minutes without seeing Micah Richards
