Spurs manage to lose on 5 min into added time. Wondering if Frank is double guess his decision to leave Brentford.

Brentford sneaking into top 6 after demolishing Sunderland 3-0. Thiago been on fire, already beat the record of most PL goals by Brazilian ever.

Happy to walk away from Palace with 1 point, from a team and ground that has not been a happy hunting ground for Villa. Ref was pretty damn ordinary, and I'm not sure what some of our players have to cop before a free kick and card is given.

Other results went out way , with City/Manu drawing and Chelsea losing.

Not sure how I want Arsenal v Liverpool to go, as I generally want Arsenal to lose, but Liverpool not getting any points, helps us maintain a gap to equal 2nd/3rd.

Dreadful performance from us with a great chance to seize momentum.

Frustrated with our players man

Not a good look by Martinelli to push Bradley while the latter was writhing on the ground and the push made him writhe more and they had to take him away by stretcher.

Frustrations from the match no doubt though you would expect a result like this since the teams both have a lot of talent and were both expected to contend for the title, though Liverpool has obviously underperformed expectations.

Another embarrassment this week.

Frank is likely gone.

You didn't, but I don't think it's going to matter. There's nobody capable of challenging you at this point, imo.

Frustrating man. We're in an incredible spot ...but could have been in an extraordinary spot.

Carricks resurgent United at home next week.... we better make it right

Yeah, I completely understand, you won't be able to feel secure until you've mathematically clinched the title and any points dropped feel like a huge miss.

But Arsenal are by far the best team in the league this season and will thoroughly deserve the title, I can't see any of the chasing teams putting together big enough of a run to catch you. Even when the attack isn't firing, your defence is elite and that gives you a platform to win games even when the performances aren't there.

Terrible result for Villa, but to still be in 3rd and games clear of the reat is a nice spot to be in.

Going into the game without Kamara and Onana and then to lose McGinn after 18 minutes, was always going to be tough, but that's a game we still should have got a result in.

We move on

We've gotten 1 point from Bournemouth, West Ham and Burnley. Absolutely atrocious league form.

Wow Bournemouth with the winner in the 95th minute.

Both teams missed good chances before injury time.
