Hopefully they run out of steam, Forest paggered them in the second half.

Could we put Livramento on at RB and Targett on the left?

Agree, we are playing into their hands by pushing up too far. They are bypassing our press by just go long down the middle. I’d rather we defended deeper and challenged them to not lose the ball and allow our counter attacks.

We are struggling with Villa’s forward runs and Watkins movement. Vila getting some joy with the long ball from Martinez too. Our final ball has been poor.

We are treading on thin ice here

We shouldn’t be scared of these, we are more than capable of getting the win. No need to push it with insane pressing. Let them try and work us out and hit them on the counter. One of Murphy’s raking diagonal drives is due to sneak inside the post.

We win this, just read that Villa are unbeaten at Villa Park in 18 games. Apparently they were unbeaten in 17 games the last time we beat them at VP. I love these quirky stats. i knew we’d win the League Cup when the commentator said Alan Gowling, who scored our goal in the ‘76 final was having his 76th birthday on the day of the final.

Lyon

Lyon are so lightweight. They are done here.

What’s his contract situation now? If he’s only got a year left I wouldn’t go higher than £20m. I think we can do much better.

Running out of superlatives for this bloke. He’s a perpetual motion machine. Is he even human?

Playing the Palace song, nice shithousery.

Hope someone sits on the ball a la Kenny Wharton.

I only ever truly relax when we have a 5 goal cushion.

I’m sure he was linked to Liverpool quite heavily.

He’s only 29!!!

Fair play to them, PSG with no thoughts of shutting up shop and playing it safe. They’ve given Villa a sniff and they’ve got back into it.

I’m supporting the clock not Villa, ET please then a soul crushing penalty loss.

Fucking hell!!

Would be 3-4 without that Martinez fuck up….

Like watching the Harlem Globetrotters, PSG are exceptional.

Villa have given up, they can’t get the ball.

PSG making hay down Villa’s right hand side. Tino/Barnes/Gordon should be licking their lips.

Ok bring on the full humiliation then. It seemed to traumatise Liverpool for a couple of games. Get them chasing shadows for the next 85 mins.

Apart from wishing a gruelling 120 mins + I’ll be hoping Villa go out tonight.
