Is it too late to mention Sir Alex is a goose for NOT starting Ronaldo & Tevez against Chelsea?

Berbatov was about as un-threatening as a new player can be! I don`t think any arm-chair coach would`ve not started the In-Form Tevez ahead of Berba or Rooney!

I cracked around the 30 minute mark, I suppose thats what you get when you get 2 poor form sides on the field.

Actually it was a shocking ref decision but it must feel good to win a match

He didn't fall over. The defender played the ball first, then caught the back of Ronaldo's leg after.
It was a good tackle though and shouldn't have been a penalty.
Shit ref...no dive.

Ashley Young is looking good.

The whole frontline of Villa is looking good TBH. We will run out of steam eventually but you cannot knock early points on the board can you?

Ronaldo may fall over easily - but if anyone else dribbled that fast, they might too.

He frustrates defenders until they end up going in late and playing into his trap. Haven`t seen the penalty yet though - highlight show is on here tonight!

Sorry , but that is the worst excuse for a diver ever. He didn't dive on Saturday but it was never a penalty and he will always be labeled as a diver for the rest of his life.
