Aston Villa away to Chelsea Match Thread (28/12)

[eltoro]

What is it with us and throwings aarrgghhh

 

[Xchurch Villa]

Irrespective of the result today I would say this is the toughest game weve played yet. Quality opposition

 

[The Fear]

McGinn really is growing in the PL now. Great to see.

 

[danvilla2]

Get Traore off for Elmo, 4-5-1, when we get the back Jack to counter attack with Ollie

 

[sirdennis]

Oh so close.

 

[muscat jag]

Aaaaggghh so unlucky John

 

[Pangloss]

Chelsea bringing on two players worth a combined £150m or so lol

 

[JNB90]

Even if Martinez doesn't catch it - he kills the sting out of every shot. No parry

 

[AV Dave]

Frank shit himself then

And for large parts, have held our own. (Same as you, irrespective of the end result).

 

[Villa 4 Ever]

Unlucky McGinn what a strike!

 

[Pangloss]

Handbags at 10 paces.

I'm expecting a late winner for them, but we more than deserve a point here.

Hause has had a really good game. His confidence on the ball too is so much better than least season, he used to scare the life out of me. 20 mins of concentration from him now though, very different opponent has come on

 

[Wurzel]

Are these commentators on drugs? We are not hanging on.

We definitely haven't missed Mings.

 

[Pangloss]

McGinn has been excellent.

 

[JNB90]

We definitely haven't missed Mings.

Refreshing squad depth. All developed well.

Also playing well with JG not really being too instrumental.

 

[Wurzel]

We definitely haven't missed Mings.

Distribution out of defence we have.
