Aston villa on fire with just 10 men, they look like they are nailed on to be a top 10 side this season
Premier League Festive Season

Damn, can't believe Villa are 3-0 up and Grealish hasn't even got an assist to his name. And their only other player I have in my FF is of course Mings.
Hard to see anything other than a Chelsea win with those lineups. Aside from Saka and maybe Tierney/Leno that Arsenal team is a mixture of both poor and too many young but learning players.
Also anyone think 9 subs on the bench should be made permanent in the PL? A lot of good players miss out elsewise. Serie A has something like 14 subs on the bench.

It is remarkable how good they have become with largely unchanged personell. These results are not a fluke. Only Chelsea, City and Liverpool post better stats. Dean Smith wasn't really known as a great defensive coach but their improvements in that regard in particular (since returning from the lockdown really) are astonishing. I think it'll level out somewhat and they are not suddenly the fourth best team in the league but still you have to acknowledge the development.
Aston Villa absolutely flying this season. Unreal turnaround from last term. 2 really tough games coming up for us. Wolves have always given us problems even at their worst.
I hope Arsenal do one thing right in their lives and stop Chelsea.
Elneny-Xhaxa-Rowe is a Championship calibre midfield.
Walcott scores, but VAR takes it away.
Stuck £20 on Chelsea should be easy money
Wouldn’t be so sure. Just like Arsenal to turn up against Chelsea before Brighton roll them over.
Target on beast mode today
Xhaka back in the first XI? Shocking.
Happy to see Martinez do well for Villa always rated him as a keeper and comes across as a decent bloke.
Not going by that lineup it looks like a sack me now lineup..
Could be a laugh though.
I like Lookman, decent player
That score line against Liverpool was no fluke.
feck sake Watkins 
Watkins should of scored there unbelievable pass from Grealish.
What a ball that was by Grealish
Arteta's last stand with that team
Iniesta would of been proud of that pass Grealish just made.
Looks like it
Palace concede 2 WITH an extra man
That was just sublime from Grealish. Unbelievable vision for that pass. Deserved a goal
We need to sign him in the summer

They should've pulled the trigger weeks ago. Not that I'm complaining.
Fulham/Southampton finishes 0-0. Could be a vital point for Fulham.
Yep s**t or bust that line up...
Thought something wasn’t right with that lineup, it’s like I don’t trust my players kinda lineup. Can’t be good in the dressing room..
Credit to Villa great win for them they have a better GD then us what the feck
Lesser of two evils
C'mon Arsenal. Have some fecking pride and get something from Chelsea.
Bellerin, Holding, Elneny, Xhaka... Tapas Pulis is something else.
Doesn't DT hate Bellerin? Any mistake and he will be going apoplectic on ArseTV.Bellerin, Holding, Elneny, Xhaka... Tapas Pulis is something else.
They have Tuchel available now.Tweet

He'd be a mug to go there.
That is the weakest premier League eleven sided by Arsenal.
This isn't a Europa League away day dead rubber.
