So happy for all the fans, all the players, Unai, and all those behind the scenes who've helped to make tonight possible. What a moment. So glad to have seen it with my young daughter who seemed really excited for once. UTV
@AVFCOfficial How was Rogers not substituted? It seemed Every time he got the ball he passed it to the opposition. Why wasn't Elliot used? We won, but looked vulnerable. Seemed like we were playing away.
@Son_Lyme A very disappointing day, but... we're in a European competition we can win, and 6th ain't a bad finish after 4th the season before and everyone saying how hard it'll be in the league while competing in the Champions League. Improvement to be made, there always is. UTV
@AVFCTheReligion Absolutely. If it was the other way round I'd still agree. Football is encouraging this behavior by not acting on it. It's not what I want to see more and more of. Disappointing.
@8Flavs Penalty 100%. Really don't understand why that's been looked at and not given. No attempt to play the ball. The reason why we have so much of this sort of behavior in football. Punish consistently and it will reduce.
🗣"If West Ham beat Villa 2-1..."
🗣"It's awful. It really is."
Unlike other podcasts, we couldn't make it one week into the Premier League season without covering Aston Villa extensively!

Football on Off The Ball with @WilliamHillIre
@AVFCStatto Could it have been better? Definitely. At least it isn't a complete redesign from what we're used to. It's still Villa. Missing the football already.
