HOW nice it is to totally boss a 2nd half. kudos dean smith... you genius!

[samhubball]

Excellent performance and win what a difference!

I think we got a real steal getting John McGinn.

Unfortunate timing for a pointless international break tho before the scum come to town

[freer]

Ditto those comments Sam & Mondaze

Pleased too for Nyland

Well where did that performance come from, not too bothered about the int break, the ladz would have put a lot into that game! Rest up freshen up and put the blouse to the sword, cant wait. So much attacking football.... its like Christmas.

Its difficult to believe that these are the same players that looked so pedestrian pre Dean what a transformation. Fantastic. 🤩

Great result and performance from the Villa lads. Well done all. Good to see Nyland have a good game, the confidence is coming. Hutton at left back with Elmo on the right looks the best bet at the moment though. New left back in January would be good as Tayls doesn’t seem to be quite up to it.

[bongosdad]

I agree with Picasso regarding Hutton and Elmo.

[TrianonDave]

I think the 'getting the ball forward' as much as what Deano wants means we dont have to worry too much about the defence where as Bruce was too defence minded and brought a lot of pressure on to the back for and the keeper??
We have oodles if quality up front so just use them, its simple.

Very pleased tonight!
