Mattoon

He wasn't good today and I wouldn't single him out for one poor performance in a poor side, I just don't think he's shown any glimpses yet to make me think there's a player in there since we bought him. Let's see what Howe can do with him, but I'm not so sure.

Most of us didn't want us to sign him, but were willing to give Howe the benefit of doubt as he must see something in him, I'm still failing to see what that is, what does he actually bring to the table?

you're one of the good ones, thoroughly deserved the win today, Villa looked quality we were absolutely shocking, nothing for you to hide from.

absolutely worst performance of the season, hands down, we just weren't at the races today at all, Emery had our number and Villa executed the game to perfection. We really need to put this behind us before next Sunday, it is imperative we get a result at home to Spurs.

Bruno stumbling over the ball at his feet is indicative of the game today

Right, that's enough football for one day

I'd be tempted to bring on Wilson for Gordon and switch Isak to the left.

Tough first half but we've been poor and contained them to a single goal, regroup and start again in the 2nd half. Eddie will make the required changes, would like to see Targett get a chance to claim that LB spot as Burn has been a liability and is clearly getting wound up. They'll tire before us, we just need to keep the game close and keep going to the final whistle, we can still get something from this.

That was mad, Chelsea aren't playing that bad, they just need these guys

Yup, just Chelsea that can stop us now

Still are but now they have backup guesses too

Yassssss

Like a different team this half, great subs by Howe

Something decidedly dodge about this ref today, he's been awful

We were due to give someone a hammering with the way we've been playing, should have been Sunday tbh. Ironic that it happens when we don't play anywhere near our best. Also first time we've scored 5 away from home since 1998!

Turns out Joelinton is a £40m Brazilian striker

Finally! Targett

Dear, oh dear, oh dear

It's that change of pace that throws defenders off that I love, slow, fast, slow

How the feck is he still on the pitch??

Keeper keeping this from being an embarrassment

Deserved a goal that

Looks like he's pulling that explosive pace, saw it in the first half, had an opportunity to drive forward and didn't put his foot down.

Got to be game over now
