Newcastle United vs Aston Villa ESPN 1:30

Villain

We are totally lost, once we went 2 down we gave up. Young needs to be played wide with Ireland playing behind the striker and petrov and a strong ball winner in the middle.

Kevin Mc is obviously a nice lad but I think we need proven experience in charge.

Oh snap Xavi!

Jose Enrique has been really impressive at left back.

I thought he was good last Monday too actually, bar one error he had Valencia in the pocket all night. He was outstanding last year, better that Nolan for sure

Been saying it for a long time. He's been consistently our best player, going back as far as the season we were relegated.

Great pace, reads the game well, and isn't a defender who just likes to play hoof ball.

LuckyLloyd

Probably should have been a penalty.

Missed that altogether

Ryan taylor handy at these (usually against us though)

LuckyLloyd

Attempts:

Newcastle 10
Aston Villa 2

On Target:

Newcastle 9
Aston Villa 0

Sounds about right!

Worst Villa performance for many years.

I dunno, Chelsea and Liverpool have boxed your ears a couple of times between them the past two years.

Yes but they are actually good teams, I can't see Newcastle scoring 4 against anyone for the rest of the season.

Maybe from a Newcastle point of view but Villa shouldn't be absolutely hammered like that against a team who just got promoted and made almost no signings.

NOLAN!!!!!!!!
Great stuff lads, solid result against a top 6 team.
Playing mind games now with Beye coming on too

Maybe not, but I think they'll give all of Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, City, Liverpool and Spurs a right game at this stadium.

I think it's the big thing that separates Villa from the other contenders. They have a propensity to let all the wheels come off the wagon in a given game. For all Liverpool's disaster, they don't get beat by four or five goals.

Newcastle for Top 4

Seriously though Villa look terrible today - missing Milner badly today. Ireland has been rather quiet and the defense all over the shop!!!

mdwexford

Lame.

That's a bit misleading to be fair. They went down with a lot of solid Premiership starters. A backbone of Smith, Barton and Nolan puts them ahead of the curve. They had bad coaching and boardroom stuff floating around the place two years ago.

Thats absolutely super from Carrol, what a ball, what a finish

Xavi6

Wow

mike65

How is this possible? I'm only listening, are Villa throwing a leg at this?

LuckyLloyd

Welcome to the jungle Villa fans. Carroll deserves that I think, super individual performance.

PauloConn

That is just brilliant. Carroll with the hat-trick, 6 goals. Good work Xisco for picking him out.
Great day, long may they continue

titan18

That was a stupid thing to say by the commentator

3hn2givr7mx1sc

Where are all the Carroll doubters from Monday night gone?:)

Johner

6-0 three times this weekend.

Mr Alan

brilliant from carroll, absolutely brilliant.

keane2097

Lol Villa

Savman

There isn't a superlative in the world adequate for that "performance".

Full credit to Newcastle, they took their chances and were by far the better side.

Storm ahoy.

Villa gave up after the third. Out muscled all over the park.

mike65

I remember asking about Carroll last season, I think I was wondering if he was Irish...

Yep is that 8 in 9 prem apps?

useless.

Carroll scores 3 and sets up one. 2 of the goals were decent, one outstanding. Team of the week performance Craig who?

Pepe LeFrits

Good man Carroll, single handedly rescuing my weekend in FF!

monkey9

Well there goes any chance of Kevin McDonald getting the job on a full time basis. Villa provided nothing in that second half when you'd expect them to try and make the scoreline a bit more respectable.

Great performance. Carrol was outstanding, as was Gutierrez and Enrique. But to honest, not one Newcastle player played badly.

And the best thing about it all is that now, those bloody taches go as well.

What did he say? Been watching with the sound off and itunes on (really the way to go these days).

Ireland with the debut he deserves, Carroll in my FF excellent.

Mentioning about the Barton/Newcastle shaving thing.Said that both sides will need razers tonight.Villa for more sinister purposes.

Thought it was quite low tbh

I just had to bring this one up again.:) Its from the United/Newcastle match thread.

Looks like an average Championship player to me.
