Why is it that Villa Park has the same capacity as SB yet acoustically it is so much louder. Is it that the fans are more vocal than ours or is it due to placement of the speakers and sound equipment around the ground.

This weekends results are showing just how important that comeback against West Ham was.

United just had to go sack Amorim didn’t they, ffs. If Villa with a man advantage can turn things around, at least a gap starts to form between the top 6.

What a finish lol !

We should try and sign that Kevin

c**ts got it back lol

Lol Villa lost

Probably something like the latter. SB is more enclosed, isn't it? Sound should be trapped.

Exactly. That's what I can't work out. You w9uld think that our ground would be louder and more atmospheric. Certainly doesn't come across like that on TV

Unlucky with the goal ruled out for the ball out of play. Regardless, injuries have screwed them.

Looking like top 5 will be between us, Villa, United and Liverpool. Hard to see Villa dropping out with their 6 point advantage but they look abit wobbly. United have new manager bounce and Liverpool are very inconsistent. Hopefully we have enough to secure top 5.

Gallagher looks so wrong in a Tottenham shirt. He looks diminished, enfeebled.

Not signing Guehi last summer just looking more and more silly with every passing week.

Spurs as so sh*t.

Tottenham getting booed off the pitch after a dismal showing is a symphony I will never tire of.

Tourists, I really think it's as simple as that. We are a famous and successfull club in London, pretty much known worldwide now and the owners are more than happy to attract and encourage the day trippers and tourists to spend their money on the 'match day experience'. It does absolutely nothing for atmosphere but it's all about the dough.

No disrespect to that grim, gloomy stain of a city in the Midlands but it's hardly a tourist magnet hence a more local and vocal crowd likely to attend games at Villa Park. To be fair it is a proper old skool stadium and has always had a loud atmosphere.

My match going days are sadly long behind me now due to age and health but kudos to our away supporters who always show up and make themselves heard.

I don't think United are having a new manager bounce, they just have no football other than Premier League until the end of the season.

Offsides and a foul

That's a foul on Guehi. If that was the other way around, it would be a penalty.

Hope so.

He’s genuinely kicked him 😂

Come on city step up now.

Spurs player kicks the City player. . Dunno why VAR didn't look at it instead of just the offside?

That Spurs goal was so clearly from an offside position and a foul that I can’t see how VAR validated it other than corruption.

Come on Citeh FFS, if they f**k this up it's all over.
