This happening to newcastle is funny. I see they arent wasting time or picking up knocks in this game.

fecking hell Villa are in sixth? I just assumed they were fighting relegation all season 
Absolutely this. I don’t know how these people survive day to day with such pessimism.
It must be a bloody miserable life to lead.
I wasn't bashing anyone, just said that Watkins vs Maguire is nightmarish.
I didn't say that Maguire was slow across the grass, slow at releasing the ball, slow in a turn or that he can't play in a high line (IMO).
Hard to say but I think I'd lean draw > Newcastle win >>>>> Spurs win. Newcastle will probably get top 4 anyway, but draw gives us better chance at 3rd... Spurs win throws it open and would be huge for Spurs.
Well that was enjoyable
Playing home vs away is very different.
Looking forward to the Chelsea vs Brighton game.
If we don’t beat Forest to take advantage, I think we can all agree that we don’t deserve Top 4, any more so than some of the teams below us hoping to pounce
he's shown loyalty to his boyhood club for as long as possible without the threat of relegation. that's why he hasn't moved, in my opinion - along with west ham routinely refusing to talk about selling him
Massive result for us
Win tomorrow and then a draw between those 2 will be ideal given we've the cup semi next weekend
Great result, Villa look really good at times under Emery.
Newcastle don’t have the easiest set of remaining fixtures.

Surprised with that Newcastle result, I suppose the result would be the other way round if Steven Gerrard was still manager of Villa instead of Unai Emery. Hopefully Brighton and Spurs drop points this afternoon but i don't trust Lampard's Chelsea or Bournemouth to get anything.
Liverpool 6 points off 6th now
Just came home from work, saw the result! Niiice. What happened?
Would be better if we are not having all those injuries. I guess you can't have everything...

Watkins running today was very good, we can't play a high line if he's playing in this form (IMO).
Brighton? We don’t need to worry about them other than in the cup.
Is Moreno the guy that was having a blast at Liverpool and looks like a fat Gerrard?

Villa were about 17th when The Count took over.
Chelsea were 4th.
Liverpool were 7th.
Emery has worked wonders at Villa. They were really, really impressive. Would love to see them get a European spot
No the Liverpool player was Alberto Moreno
Villa's player is Álex Moreno
Mad. I actually didn’t realise just how well he was doing. He’s a top manager.
90 more minutes to randomly shoehorn Maguire into the thread. I'm not surprised you're excited.
Maybe it's just me, but it's gotten way worse on here recently. When I first started reading the caf (many years ago) it was a good place to get a bit of perspective and optimism after a bad result, but now it's one of the most pessimistic, doom-mongering places on the internet!
8 days until that Brighton game, actually looking forward to seeing Wan Bissaka vs Mitoma - If they play.
He's such an idiot!
does he play basketball?!
Maybe, but he's in the process of running his contract down so he can leave for free because his current club have priced him out of a move in previous summers. His boyhood club is also Chelsea, not West Ham, him and Mount are best mates and he got released and ended up at West Ham.
West Ham have repeatedly said they'll play ball for north of £100m, which Rice is definitely not worth in any way.
Newcastle should have spent all week preparing for Villa instead of celebrating beating us
If Spurs don't win today, and we beat Forest tomorrow, top 4 should be a formality.
Come on Bournemouth.
Come on Bournemouth.
You would hope so but anything can happen from here. Newcastle play Spurs next also
We don't have much of a team right now
Lampard beta-testing random formations for the next manager. Mudryk hat-trick incoming
If Spurs also lose or draw to Newcastle next weekend it's done. No way we are bottling a 4 or 5 point lead with 2 games in hand to this Spurs team, even with our injuries and lack of stability.
We'll win against Forest. Tails are up after the disappointment of Sevilla, everyone will be focused on bouncing back and getting a result in the league to stop the rot.
It's next week we should be worried about, the second string don't have the required mentality to maintain focus week in, week out.
Yeah you would hope the distance between us psyche's them out more than anything, which is totally a Spurs thing.
Thanks for the clarification. Alberto was awful and brought me many moments of joy
No way Spurs lose to Bournemouth. They are sooo bad
What is career ending?
