I’ve been doing it wrong all these years?!

He can certainly play there and do it well, but I wouldn’t want him at RB for Villa. He’s our best and most consistent CB. We are weaker when he isn’t in the centre of defence.

ASTON VILLA beating Wales 2-0 after 11 minutes!

WATKINS!!!

ROGERS!!

Tielemans has had a set back with his calf injury apparently. Could be out for another five weeks. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We’ve had the Ninja Dual Zone Foodi Max for years and it’s still brilliant. It’s used every day and had no problems at all with it. Bought one for my Mum and my wife’s parents too and they use all the time and love it! Can’t go wrong! 👍🏻

There are good guys and then there is Lewis Moody – MND has cruelly singled out the bravest of men | Robert Kitson Moody’s diagnosis with motor neurone disease at the age of 47 is desperate news for all those who know and love him

Beginning of the end. Hope this never happens to English football. More business than sport now.

Made hard work of it in the end, but always looked like winning! Another step in the right direction! Well done, Villa!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜💙

Martinez getting himself involved when there’s no need. Picking up a booking. He’s so easily drawn into things that don’t matter. Concentrate on the game and maybe it’d still be 2-0.

Ridiculous refereeing.

Buendia wins a header and gets booked. Their player elbows Buendia in the face and not even a foul?! Typical refereeing in this league.

Weird subs today. Just inviting pressure onto ourselves.

Barkley coming on?!

I don’t know why we took Ollie off. He was making so many runs creating loads of space for Malen. Now that’s gone and Malen can’t get on the ball.

Marco Bizot.

Come on, Villa! Don’t fuck it up!

Martinez absolutely shit there. Too busy pushing players. Prick.

What a finish that is!! BOOM!!

MALEN!!!! ASSIST FROM ROGERS!!

Another big chance! Good save from keeper though. Would be lovely for Rogers to get that goal!

That little ball inside from Digne that he always plays when he’s closed down, really does my head in! Always loses it and it’s never on!

Solid first 45. If some of those final balls are better and we keep a bit of composure in front of goal, we could be 3/4-0 up already. That all comes with confidence though, which is building! We’re getting there! Bogarde and Malen really impressing! Need to get job done 2nd half!

He’s getting there. Just lacking bit of confidence. Played a big part in the goal and couple of good link ups later on. Still young and learning. Even though he’s not at his best, he drags 2 players with him so creates space for others. Teams know him more now, so needs to learn how to get free!

We’ve made a couple of really good chances. Got to start finishing them! Could (maybe should) be 3-0 up at HT!

Rogers needs to drive on and shoot there. Use the run as a decoy. Lacking a bit of confidence still! Getting there though!

How was that not a pen!? Ridiculous!

That’s a joke! Definite pull back!
