Whilst I don’t think Watkins was player of the match I thought he worked really hard and his hold up play was good. Just need the goals to come as well. Interesting to see people who can’t see what he did. Good barometer of people who don’t get football

So I’ve had fairly deep dive on the history of Argentinian football and from what I can see Emi Buendia is their greatest ever player and there aren’t any other potential candidates #AVFC

Emi ❤️

If you can overlook both their goals then that’s a good away point tonight #avfc

The goals we conceded are all of our own making. I’d give us a chance to get back into this if our centre forward provided any threat whatsoever

What a torrid 2nd half

Lazy from Maatsen for that goal

A trophy every 9 minutes

Ah! Good morning, reality. And welcome. We’ve been expecting you…

Their commitment to delivering the heist within the parameters of a 35 hour working week is commendable

Don’t bother marking him

No Henry, they won’t do the same when Spurs fans come to Villa in May as this move has been done on safety grounds not because they are Jewish 🤦‍♂️

Ref got it right, wasn’t a red card

Hmmm… If I didn’t know better, I’d be suspicious and suggest that PSR is having an impact on the clubs that had the audacity to try and gatecrash the established hierarchy.

I think he needs taking out of the side. Great player and I love him, but his form is off right now

Must be less by now

His face said it all - never looked like scoring that

Anyone got the numbers on Rogers giving the ball away this season?

Moving the ball quicker and it makes so much difference

A lot of assumptions being made about Monchi’s parting with club. We don’t know whose call it was, maybe he even wanted out. None one of the usual journo’s posting a reason yet, which suggests no one really knows right now. #avfc

I feel like I post about this every year, but it would be useful if the media explained that it is not, in fact, easy to immigrate to this country, to get a national insurance number, to get indefinite leave to remain, to get citizenship. It is, in fact, already very difficult.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the two real under performers are the two players who know they start every week- my opinion is that they both need a bit of fear for their place in their game #avfc

Watkins and Rogers are making zero contribution

We will come good

For those that left the other place, someone tagged Damien Vidagany in a post ⬇️ and he actually replied so enjoy his answer #UTV #AVFC

On the same day in the Telegraph:

"You can say what you like, I don’t care, because that’s what free speech is," Nigel Farage has just told the House Judiciary Committee, about three hours after his party banned me from covering its conference this weekend.

Watkins and Rogers have been awful.
