I was only listening, the one before hit the bar?

Yeah but that was daft too. Chipped it on to the bar.

Brutal last pen for them. However everyone in the pub audibly groaned when Longstaff stepped up for us.

What’s the hate I don’t get it

Oh I back him as a player, maybe not to start but definitely a squad player. However I wouldn’t have him down for a pen like! Especially the last one but to be fair it was a good pen!

Champions League draw at 5pm. Feel like i’m going to explode and or cry when Villa’s name comes out the hat! Can’t wait. Inject etc

Got tickets for my son and I for the Wolves game next month too.

i’m not gonna say ā€œwe’re not going to win it so who cares who we getā€ but to me it’s all a stepping stone to being a bigger club - more money, better players etc. etc.

little bit concerned that we don’t have a big enough squad for the bigger competition this year but whatever happens it’s going to be a wild ride!

Didn’t realise the change in format is this year, bit of a damp squib for Villa to get to the Champions League and not experience the classic format.

Taken from the Arsenal website

Fucking dumb ass change of format. So fucking stupid.

Keep it as it was and bring back the away goals rule.

Yeah, not a massive fan. I hope with no home/away legs it will bring more of a 1 off match feel and teams paying more attacking football.

Munich, Juventus, Celtic and Bologna at Villa Park. Buzzing my tits of over here!!

I don’t mind the new format tbh. 8 finals basically to qualify rather than Home/Away legs

Why are Chelsea going for Sancho? :joy:

Toney finally fucking off but only Ā£40 mill? bad luck for Brentford. assume he’s near the end of a contract or something. surely a player trying to stay in the England squad is going to know that Saudi is a death sentence (lul) for international hopes

Arsenal have signed Sterling on loan without paying Chelsea a fee and paying him £100k a week while Chelsea still pay him £175k a week. Madness.

Phew, I thought United might be interested for a second there. He can have a few good days then be pretty poor for long periods of the season and United already have Rashford for that now.

Sancho off to Chelsea too.

Not much you can do with Haaland in this kind of form, it feels like a procession already.

We. Are. Terrible. :joy:
