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

Great point and a really pleasing second half in particular. Said to my lad as we went into the last ten that rather than looking to hold on like we were seemingly always doing in the 6 years before relegation how great it was to believe at that point that we’d got a really good chance of going onto win it....says in itself how far we’ve come and how unbelievably well we’re doing this season going toe to toe with the better teams. Great to see SJM back to his best as well today. Chuffed to bloody bits! Roll on 2021!
 
Someone mentioned early on that they thought SJM had bulked up somewhat, in a good way, and just glimpsing his shoulders in that interview I think you're right, he's obviously been busy in the gym as has everyone I think, apart from targett of course.

That was me, and yes he looks both stronger and fitter to me which is a double bonus.
