My complaint - VAR and we didn't win by more.

What did VAR get wrong?

Watkins OUT !

 

[Lord Ron Saunders]

Only word for it brilliant.
Watkins MOM

Douglas Luiz appreciation post. Unsung hero, he’s like the ECU of the motor, makes everything tick.

There was a time at 1-0 he covered the defence who were AWOL to stop a clear cut chance, little things like that which don’t get much credit but give such a boost to the players watching it can make or break the game.

I haven’t seen many players who can read the game and danger like Luiz.

That's not like you mate. You're one of the optimistic ones usually!

Might try being pessimistic more often, seems to work out well!

 

[DeanoVilla]

Jack Grealish was 10/10 tonight. Just sublime.

 

[Chieftoast]

Im starting to really enjoy these Sunday night games! Puts me in great form for the week.! You beauts

Our old friend, Mark Lawrenson had us down for a 2-0 defeat. I'm not sure he's forecast us to win at all this season.
Anyway, up to 6th - with a game in hand!

I personally couldn’t care, as I’ve done the same in the prediction league. Keep going Lawro!

That was his best game of the season.

 

[Villa 4 Ever]

Not sure if i'm the only one, but I'll happily predict a loss all season if we get a reaction like that!

 

[Thomas Holte]

Absolutely nothing to complain about that!

Well done Dean & Co.

I hate these international breaks but at least we have the comfort of going into yet another with a good win.

Sorry mate but I can't show your response but yeah, they did fuck all down our left and Cash was just fine

For you Eltoro

 

[AV Dave]

Watkins, not just his goals but his hold up play is brilliant.

 

[Melon Donkey]

We need to wrap this starting 11 up in cotton wool .

He still gets too much wrong for me but I concede that he also got a lot right tonight too - super pass to Barkley for Ollie's first goal too.

 

[Pride of Lions]

Doff my cap to Dean Smith tonight, he’s got it spot on.

Why oh bloody why can't he do it consistently?

Was Shakie at the Emirates tonight?

 

[Bonker]

Jack Grealish was 10/10 tonight. Just sublime.

Outclassed the entire team of Arsenal "big name" players - not that it's particularly difficult to do that IMO, I'm actually a bit shocked at how bad they look tbh.

Yeah I'm a big fan mate. Our new Petrov

Out of interest, what does he get wrong for you? I do think he struggles more in fast games at times and his early decision making wasn’t great but he’s worked on that and eliminated giving silly balls away.

 

[sirdennis]

I could watch that again and again.
