Disgusting that this has happened and this move really is just as bad as Ben Arfa being moved on.

THIS FUCKING CUNT.

We don't either. Come to think of it, we deserve nothing but failure.

Next home game If Ben Arfa does go to Hull, hope he starts and has a MOTM performance and knock us into oblivion.

He'll say no.

That is going to be so good. Though Stade Chaban Delmas will be missed.

Well, I certainly did not see this coming... "Ginger Pirlo" ffs, think Roy needs to be sectioned...is his long term plan to bore the opposition with unspectacular football? Colback is going to add nothing to the international setup.

Just an injury and he's expecting to return soon.

Glorious result. League Cup or not, this was still a side called Manchester United and they were soundly beaten by a League 1 side. Brilliant.

Kudos to Slim and Santoon. You've done us all proud

Get in! Brilliant.

Our record at Villa Park (bar the relegation season) is pretty decent so we'll sneak a win methinks.

All credit to Colback, he did well today and was instrumental in limiting City's attacks and was definitely the main ballwinner for us. Still think he's a right cunt for his antics last season but today was a step in the right direction on the road of forgiveness (sorry).

City fans in the pub singing "Champione" in reaction to their goal. Overreaction much?

This is a good start to my day, haha.

You read my mind.

That's the ref sorted. Anyone other than Catchpole tbh. If it's October time, might actually be back from injury and donning the GK gloves again...otherwise can definitely be a ref, if needed.

Clean Sheet gone. Meh.

Unlucky.

Brilliant finish.

Decent counter attack.

Aarons deserved that based upon his performance today. Very, very promising.

Whey!

Someone's clearly spiked Pardew's water.

This is the first time I've seen Aarons play, very impressed by him so far - I like the directness in his play and looks like he knows how to use his pace (decent delivery on him too). Hope we see a lot of him in the coming season.
