Villa really do play some good football. You would never have guessed that they were a man down for the entirety of that second half. Credit where it's needed, the manager and coaching staff have got the players playing some good stuff and they will give any other Premier League team a good game. It's good for that area of the UK to have a team doing well and playing some good stuff.

They have Tuchel available now.
You'd think he will have a break before jumping straight into another job considering the stresses of being a top tier manager. He will bide his team and wait for the right moment before choosing his next team to take charge off.

If he has witnessed ArseTV he should stay well clear.

Arteta going seems like a matter of time. The football that they're playing at the moment isn't great at all. But, perhaps more worrying, they have such an uninspiring squad who have no personality. No spirit in that team. It's going to take more than getting a new manager in to sort that out. It needs a whole re-think. I think they need someone more experienced, almost like Ancelotti.

Credit to Villa great win for them they have a better GD then us what the feck
We've had loads of big ones aside from Liverpool, won 3 nil today, Fulham West Brom and at Arsenal so another 12 goals there.

Does look mad to see Spurs in 7th now considering you were top about 10 days ago but sums up how quickly things can change with a couple of defeats.

We really should be getting all 3 points against this Arsenal lineup. Looks dire as f*ck. Unfortunately we seem to have picked up a habit of giving teamswoefully out of form lifelines (Westbrom and Everton come to mind) so fingers crossed here.

Gabriel misses the next 3 Arsenal games because of what they're calling "covid close contact' so he's now in isolation.

Martinez has been a very good solid buy for Aston Villa.
Tbh compared to last summer, I think Villa have had a better transfer window

You should have them on toast. That is ab absolutely godawful line up from Arse. They really are in a state right now.

I think Tuchel will eventually manage us.

They'll probably go for Allegri.

Does feel like this will be Arteta's last game. Owner probably realised what sh*t they are in and can't afford mass personnel changes.

A relegation quality line up for a relegation dogfight team.

How many decades do you have to go back to find a worse arsenal team than this?

Just had a look at Chelsea team, is Ziyech injured again? Must be frustrating for the Chelsea boys on here they can't get him and Pulisic on the pitch at same time as that is scary counter attack potential with whichever CF they go with.

Should still be too strong for Arsenal anyway.

Not at all impressed with this Chelsea side, so i expect an Arsenal win by couple of goals.

Chelsea dropping points is more important. Arsenal are irrelevant.
Almost two dozen matches to go. Teams will drop points here and there. But arsenal dropping to relegation zone is very amusing.

A striker gets the ball in the box in front of the goal and he kicks it to near corner flag
