Portsmouth V Stoke in the final, aye, i'd love to watch 90 minutes of that.

Fucking hell, 2-0.

Villa have this unique talent of making bad teams look OK; Palace away in the cup, the first half against Burnley 2 weeks ago.

Kadar's a very good prospect but I don't like the idea of players running at him.

Depends on how you look at it I suppose. I don't think taking us to eight points clear with a game in hand at the top of the table was particularly easy either considering the shambles we were in pre-season. Forgive me if I'm wrong but weren't you one of the people saying that we could be facing consecutive relegations? And I wasn't saying that Hughton was a better caretaker, just that both were so horrible that there's really no point in comparing. Once september 1st arrived I predicted we'd go up as champions.

Look at Leicester's squad man, just look at the state of it. They were about to start a season in League 1 when Pearson took over, they're now on the verge of the premier league via the playoffs. As for Hughton having a better record as caretaker.

I expected it and was over the moon that it didn't happen. If you expected Hughton to play Butt instead of Guthrie in the centre, nuff said, basically.

Do I? Well yes, I think he's a better manager. You're having a laugh with the part in bold though aren't you?

He kept Butt out yesterday when it would have been easy to put Guthrie on the wing. For a complete idiot it would have been.

He still relies on players getting injured to pick the best team.

Him and Paul Ince.

Aye, one of the reasons I was really looking forward to this season.

He looks a different player with another natural winger on the pitch, whoever it is.

York put a bit too much though into that one. Never mentioned myself at any point, just that it was funny someone said Pancrate lacked pace, everyone who's seen him play know's he fast as fuck.

Not to mention passes like the one against Coventry that have ultimately ended with us putting the ball in the back of the net.

Been our best midfielder all season.

Aye. Even without the goal, he was fantastic. Always looked to drive us forward.

His best game last season was away from home.

Yeah, he was a different player back then though. There's a reason Bolton got rid of their club captain for £3.5m and we discovered it last season.

He was poor at times yesterday I thought, easily the weak link in midfield. Took his goal well though and battled in the first half.

He's absolutely fast as fuck, like. Makes me laugh that someone on here said he lacked pace a couple of weeks back.

Rushed back.

Picked my choices for the starting Xl, well impressed.
