They’re dominating. Chelsea playing badly
Fearless Villa
Aston Villa 0-0 Manchester City
Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writer at Villa Park
Aston Villa are really going for this and have had the better of the first half hour here at a vibrant Villa Park. The normal worry remains - will they regret not cashing in on this superiority against a side of Manchester City’s class?
Who would have known that Jackson, who only scored one of a potential two hat tricks against Spurs, could fuck up a 2-vs-1 so spectacularly?

‘City look rattled, Villa fans absolutely loving it’
Aston Villa 0-0 Manchester City
Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 Live
Listen to the noise in the background!
The players City want to get on the ball are being closed down so quickly, the likes of Bernardo Silva are not giving any time to breathe at all.
City look rattled at the minute, can’t settle on the ball at all.
The home fans are absolutely loving it.
1-1 Palmer

SMS Message: Shows, despite the myth that it’s “huge” how paper thin City’s squad is; a half fit central defender and a teenage fullback starting in midfield tonight. from Gav, Edinburgh
SMS Message: Emery is redefining what Villa fans can expect. Toe to toe with the English and European Champions. And we look like the likely winners. from Tim
Same result for us on Saturday will do nicely

SMS Message: Can anyone explain why Shaw was not booked and then sent off for kicking the ball away just now. James sent off last week for exact same thing! Has VAR gone to sleep?? from Nick

Turned over the villa-city game just in time to see Watkins getting a yellow for a pathetic piece of play acting from Akanji.
City team sheet - 6 defenders.
I cannot fucking stand how entitled Cheaty are.

Santa, all I want for Xmas is a new manager, captain, players, and owners.
Lawrence, a Man Utd Fan just clinging on
Villa looks on fire
He should have gone down.
Cheaty would have…
Villa are taking the piss right now.
Pep’s mob look seriously rattled.
Most vulnerable since Bobby tore them a new one and Mo scored from 50 yards.
Been a long time since I’ve seen City so under pressure with little ball.
