What's funny? I have praised him a lot tonight and been going easier on him for weeks. I criticised him when he had a bad game here and there and I praise him when he plays well and score goals. Especially at the age of 36. I assume you mean because I said his all round game can be hit and...

I didn't watch the game tonight, but I have seen them enough to know that he and Neves are sheer class. Brilliant midfielders.

Yeah I hate it mate, this obsession with individual awards. I wouldn't go as far as 'meaningless' before, but it didn't mean much at all and now it honestly feels like Gen Z kid players would rather win this stupid award than the fucking World Cup. It's ridiculous. I hate this award.

Hopefully he (or Raphinha) beat Ronaldo's 17 goal record season from 2014. Lots of Ronaldo's goals that season were stat padding and meaningless anyway, whereas Lewy is actually scoring crucial goals. If he does though people will just say he had two more games to do it in. Fuck those people.

Yeah Vitinha looks good too. Plus as others said they have that insane pace and fitness. Good mix and dangerous team.

He's doing excellently anyway. Should be proud of himself. He and Modric must be the best players at this age (36 onwards) of the 21st century.

Yeah true mate. Didn't mean Villa fans, just meant some of the muppets in the media who react and change their minds like the weather. Yeah the set-pieces could be a big factor. Odegaard, Saka and Rice swing them corners right underneath the bar. Joao Neves is a superb little player, isn't he...

Yeah his all-round game is generally hit and miss (though appears to be stabilising as the season goes on), but you cannot argue with his numbers. And, to be fair, many of his goals are important goals.

Yeah mate, Villa aren't really a quarters and semis of the CL squad. Still a very good team, but more of the 6th or 7th or 8th best team in England on paper. Emery has done a very good job and I hope people don't turn on him after this result against a good PSG team. You never knew - that late...

It doesn't matter. The job is done and the team is 99.9 percent through. Lewy will be happy with his brace, and if it allows him to perform better in future games (because he got a little more rest), then happy days.

Ok cheers. I thought you meant me. FWIW you have been right about some stuff. But I get a lot right on man United and certain other stuff too. Could be close. I won't ask who you are actually referring to though.

I assume you mean me? I am right a lot more than you are.

Come on, it wasn't anger :lol: People were just saying to respect Dortmund more. I still think that, even though they got destroyed. They're a big European club.

I apologise to you then @serghei. You were right mate, though myself personally I never discounted Barca could blow them away. I just thought it might be tighter as I tend to err on the side of caution. I just think being humble before the game makes it even sweeter when the team does destroy...

3-1 now. Looks hard now but Villa will believe they can win by two goals. Also an exact for me.

Still all to play for in the other game, if it finishes 2-1. Villa will fancy their chances of winning on the night at Villa Park.

Let's him save energy for future games. It's a long season and remember he's 36. The job tonight is done.

He has been proved right, and I did say in my post he might well be, but the original posts still stand - even when you win very well, it's good to be respectful before.

I think it was a certain person in this thread' s ( not you) constant wanking Lewy off that put me off, not that that poster is not a good guy, can just go over the top. I am a bit of a contrarian. As you can see I am a fair guy and will give credit when due. Been sleeping as I didn't sleep...

Good to see him scoring goals when it matters. That's what we want to see from him and if he can keep doing it you will win the treble. Kudos Robert!
