Martínez is certainly the man for the big occasion. Tremendous tonight. But don't get too excited Villa. Newcastle beat PSG at home last year and the city went mad. They failed to make it out of the group.

Did Newcastle win their first 2 games?

Villa have Celtic too, they'll be fine

With a lob like that... clear that Jhon Duran's been watching George Thomason 🙃

You would think they'll be reet. But I'll have to see how this new league thing will pan out. 

Just watching MOTD - Leipzig's goal music is 'I feel Good'

One major difference. Unai Emery. A coaching and tactical genius. What he did with Sevilla I very much doubt anyone will ever match. Somewhere along the line I expect a piece of silverware to be arriving at Villa Park.

Are those commentators still banging on about Duran's 'wonder' goal?

Since when has kicking a ball into an empty net from 30 yards been a wonder goal??

I think it's because most goals are incredibly dull these days. 

really enjoyed that game last night atmosphere was electric, reminded me of anfield a tad 

proper ground

Brilliant that Villa game, unreal atmosphere and great spirit from the players....some manager is Emery.

Massive massive club Villa, they are everything that is right for me, proper old skool feel to what they are doing.

Only half paying attention & saw that LEI were playing JUV & thought it was Leicester but it didn't look like their ground. 🫣🙄🤪

Didn't realise it was a video from an old charity game rather than last night's match, hence the deletion. Silly me.

I presumed it was a joke (or a big cock up) by the realefl folk.

Strips weren't right, the title wasn't, and the players clearly weren't professionals.

I've not seen the goal but I think the answer is "when its v Bayern Munich".  Everything is bound to be exaggerated.

Well done Villa but I can't get engaged in champions league when there's no jeopardy for half the teams.  I watched 10 minutes but the outcome is of no consequence, Bayern Munich will have forgotten about it already.  And anyway Kompany's football bores me, pass pass pass like at Burnley.

Tbh, that could be highlights from any league 1 or league 2 game these days, utter garbage , tad batter than NL.

Kane got the ball last night 10 yards or so in his own half, the break was on - Coman was free on the right wing and a 40 yard ball puts him in. He does it all the time for England.

He looked like he was going to do it, changed his mind and played a 5 yard pass back to a midfielder and jogged up the pitch. Was obviously told not to play the ball further than X-yards, so had to abandon the pass. Felt for him!

True though.....most goals in the football league are in tthe middle of the net......

I bet those red rags get a result at Villa on Sat.

Out of interest is there anywhere that publishes viewing figures for the games Sky stream ? 
 

Some of the games must have less than 1000 watching them. 

if you look at this on BARB viewing figures website. 

https://www.barb.co.uk/monthly-viewing/

it sez sky sports main channel gets 9+ a bit million a month 

sky sports plus got about 3 and a quarter million

ill bet thats why ifollow and that stopped, sky probably has more "reach"

theres some leftover statistic saying "sky sports active" got 5000 views a month, which iirc is the old red button stuff which the "plus" channel supercedes. 

you probably have to pay BARB for the full data. 

i always think that if theres a film on at 3 in the morning on summat like a Classic Movies TV channel there'll only be about 11 people watching it live. 

with apps they can pinpoint the exact moment a storyline makes folk quit a tv show en masse.
