Jesper Olsen is probably better in nets than our Olsen, tbh.
-
Our bench tonight: Olsen, Disasi, Mings, Maatsen, Garcia, Asensio, Onana, Malen, Watkins. I don't think we've ever had a stronger bench, and after a season of injury decimation, we've got almost everyone fit at just the right time. And having said that, we'll put in a shit performance against Brighton, because, well, Villa.

Guys, it's HAPPENING.

We're playing some bunch of no-hoper middle east club in a friendly. Asensio has scored a belter. It makes me laugh. Arteta: "It's impossible to sign a striker, especially in January" Emery: *signs Asensio, who scores 7 goals in 5 competitive games* (NB not including goal against no-hopers tonight). Asensio is from a different planet, the guy is on a whole different level.

Easily the better side on the day, from start to finish. Congratulations. And as a bonus, Slot can stick that right up his arse, the smarmy cunt.

Got to have a go. Everyone is a good side at this point. You'd probably look at Bayern over two legs against Leverkusen and think, shit no, but we beat them. Fuck it, quarter finals, I'd much rather play a comparatively unknown quantity than Liverpool against whom there would be an inbuilt and media-fuelled cringe. Obviously, I'd rather have Oldham and Walsall between us and the final, but that's not happening. It's all relative.

If Atletico win this, I will start to believe the stars may be aligned for us. Also, what a fucking loan signing Asensio is, what a great, great move.

They'll be crying in the streets of Cork, Oslo and Stockholm!
-
If Liverpool go out, the stars are fucking aligned. We're winning the big cup* * again

One minute: "Sorry Mrs Dinner Lady, we'll be bust by Christmas if we don't get your £13 an hour off the wage bill" Next day: "OMG WE ARE BUILDING A BILLION CAPACITY STADIUM ON THE MOON!111!!11"

Was great seeing you up the back of the Holte again for the Cardiff match, hopefully you can get down for another match soon, Toony x

We are finally starting to find some league form. Mings has been imperious of late, that's a big big plus for us after a season of chaotic defence. Torres almost back from injury as well and Kamara seems to be approaching his best after his ACL. Hopefully some starts aligning shit going down.
-
To be fair, we didn't have much luck when, on this ground in an early round, we got dumped because the ref spotted Mings doing something he'd prob have gotten away with most of the time. However, I will admit, things have gone our way tonight. After a season of abysmal injury luck, though, fuck that, who cares. Also, bringing in players like Asensio and Rashford in January when we needed to strengthen quickly for the remainder, good work, that.

Anything can happen in a one off game. I remember us facing Liverpool at Wembley under - clears throat - Tim Sherwood in the FAC semi final. We were absolutely wretched that season, well into building the team towards a sub 20 points comedy relegation the next year. We had zero chance. But we beat them* Sherwood tactically owned *checks notes* Brendan Rodgers that day. Tim Sherwood. *obviously the final was also a one off game in which anything can happen, but that was so bad, I stopped watching after an hour.
