I have never wished relegation on any club but shan’t be bothered one jot if Aston Villa takes its fans down. What a despicable bunch. Recalling their measure of filth aimed at Gareth Barry, they repeated the dose against Fabian Delph. Mind with no shots on target it’ll be the only lachryma-free excitement they get all season. Any ex-Villa players in the Championship should prepare now for next year’s abuse from a much-reduced number of motley.

Wilfried has made the impossible having done-in a hamstring. How does somebody called Bony bugger a tendon?
