Who was it that said Mings has been living off his left foot and height? you were right 😆

All the mistakes we made and Villa couldn't score, Villa make one mistake and....

Kova has gone full Kante. f**king everywhere.

Played the backpass with his left foot though so pending prophet status for me I'm afraid...

Anyone got a stream link please? Having a nightmare today

He’s just won the ball back from our own player now 

Would love some Timo action in about 10 mins or so

Top positional work there from Jorginho to drop in to allow Rüdiger to wander off and start yelling at (I think) Watkins.

This is why TT is paid the big bucks. Great adjustments of personnel and setup

The best thing you can say about that finish from Kovacic is that it was "Lampardesque" 🙂

Since our 2nd goal Villa have reverted to mainly fouling us again.

what a start of the season for Alonso. love the gezzer hope he continues

Are those Villa towels positioned at every ball boy/girl? Sheez.

I don't think Ziyech has tried a simple piece of football all day, every single time he is on the ball, he has tried something fancy. I don't mind the fancy stuff, but there are times when it's best to keep things simple.

That is the stuff that frustrates the f**king life out of me with Kovacic. He plays a world class, Fabregas-esque through ball to Lukaku for the goal and then plays a pass like that attempt to Alonso.

No kante, no midfield. 

Cheap yellow on Alonso there

f**king hell, Bailey has just sent Alonso for a hot dog 😂 that was class

Looked like a tired pass. He’s worked his socks off today.

I'm sure his form will drop eventually, it always does, but this is why I really didn't want us to sell him. Over a full season, we get a lot more of the good Alonso than the bad.

Not even the players can afford a hot dog at The Bridge!

Hopefully Azpi comes on for Ziyech and CHO moves into the front 3

cmon bring Timo on ffs

CHO just doesn't do enough for me....a lot of hype; I've never seen him really have a really good game.  Whether or not he just can't play as a wing back as opposed to an out and out winger I don't know; but even when he does get the chance to run at defenders he ain't that great..IMO
