What are Villa playing for in the league? :S

MementoMori

Cech didnt look too clever there

God that was close from chelsea

Panthro

MementoMori

Close there.

Malouda causing Cuellar problems again

Why did they stop play when Downing would have been onside? Can the ref not allow play to continue?

Neil3030

Delighted with the Villa performance so far.

i agree but ive had several drinks its after midnight here and Villa are playing well (so far) so que some Up The Villa posting for me.

im hoping for some mages like this, this season for Villa



Chelsea getting a lot of the ball now but im surprised with how little they are doing with it. Collins etc doing very well vs Drogba

It's amazing really, what was the cost of Wembley again, £800m to build? And the surface is cutting up as bad as my local pitch after a bit of rain.

Lukker-

First save of the game?

x in the city

that pitch is just lol

they be better of playing in some bog in offaly

MementoMori

Downing having a very good game so far.

Lukker-

lol ref

Panthro

we are starting to press on a bit now.
the yuri/malouda partnership is effective enough i think.
deco and petrov are fairly courting each other out there

Panthro

jaysus that first half absolutely flew i thought.
villa started off very well, chelsea look like they are getting into it though.
that pitch is brutle.

matrim

Villa had the better of the first half but a bit worryingly we haven't really created many chances and Chelsea were coming back into it a bit near the end

mike65

Outrageous peno decision and yes an awful pitch, I've yet to see a decent surface at Wemberly.

MementoMori

Pitch mockadious. Villa started well and looked like a side with a point to prove; Chelsea looking a bit sluggish. Reckon the penalty call could be massive given there hasn't been all that much in the way ofclear-cut chances. Neither side will want extra-time but if it does go to ET reckon Chelsea's bench could be the key factor.

MementoMori

Fair play to Ray Wilkins there saying it was a penalty.

Lukker-

Back under way.

Panthro

chelsea and villa corners make papa a worried supporter

Lukker-

They've scored most goals from set-pieces this season haven't they Villa?

Panthro

got two from corners against us in december thats all i know.
lot of big players in that team

Anyone see the halftime peno from a fan, it reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on it

Chelsea a lot more in the game so far in the second half.
