Good half from us and played some good stuff at times. Pleased with that, but we all know Villa can't be that poor again in the second half.

That looked a decent tackle? Got the ball no?

Well tracked back by Gordon. Joelinton won the ball but it was Gordon who forced it.

Schar is so damn good at that ball.

Not sure why people are so down on Elanga so far He's been dangerous up to now and it's not like Villa are leaving a huge amount of space for him. Digne should be on yellow as well.

Don't worry he'll get one at 88 minutes when it's meaningless.

Decent ball in. Tripps delivery a little better than last season so far.

Tino is so hesitant on second balls. It does my nut in. That's twice now.

First time we've let them really counter us. Need to stop that because they seemingly don't have anything else.

If he did, he's got no right to quite frankly. He knows what Pope is like and he still picks him.

Hope we're not going into the last 20 minutes needing anything because the attacking options on the bench are poor. Defensively the subs are top quality though.

Actually would've preferred Martinez in goal for Villa. This guy looks solid and composed.

Gordon doing really well so far.

15 minutes in and out set pieces are much better already.

Another chance for Elanga. Difficult, but a poor shot still

Very good cross and a good run by Gordon, should be on target.

If only you could bet on it.

Tino still asleep so far.

He has to score, that's an almost perfect position. No one is squaring it there.

Fuck fuck fuck. Elanga has to score that.

Just don't concede early on FFS!!

Would incur some serious bed wetting from the media (his contract is due to be paid up by his current Saudi team). But I'd take him on a 1 year contract.

Didn't get DCL, so now people are suggesting Beto? 😂 I'd take him over DCL, but come on, he's not remotely good enough. As our third choice striker on a free I'd be alright with it but nothing more than that.

I wasn't a couple of weeks ago. But now I'm thinking this is the best time to play them at their place. They've had a below average window so far, Rogers looks like he might be out for this and obviously Ramsey leaving will make them slightly weaker overall. I would still take a draw without a doubt though.

Seeing as Romano broke this in the first place, you'd imagine he'd be on it if it were actually done. I'm certainly not going to believe "givemesport.com".
