I remember walking past the radio every once in a while and also checking the scores online while playing games on the old PC, I remember being amazed we were two goals up but then checking later and seeing we’re a man down and conceded one back. Immediately rolled my eyes thinking “oh here we go” then noticing later they equalised then went ahead. I wrote us off not gonna lie but then I saw it was three, three and I got hope back. Then I checked later again to see more goals were scored and more cards were given and really wanting to watch MOTD later that night!
I remember I was in London with my friends for a few drinks this boxing day. When on the underground an elderly lady asked me and my friends what the Chelsea score was. When I said 4-4 she gave me a look as if to think I was a piss taker! Bet she got a shock when she got home!
Well I think it’s safe to say this comment aged extremely well, He’s found some really good form at City now!! He’s a Premier League Winner aswell as a England International who’s in a very small elite Club of England Players who have Played in a Final of a Major Tournament(The next ones ours) and He’s a Goal Scorer in a World Cup.. I’m sure there’s many more Trophies to be Won at City and England hopefully.. So Yeah he’s done alright for a Lad from Brum 🤣🤣
Boxing day. I remember this. One of the best games I've ever seen. Back in the day when Villa were enjoyable to watch. I got very very drunk after this
I looked forward to this match for 4 months and on the morning/afternoon of Boxing Day I overslept and woke up up at 88 minutes gone on the clock. Gutted. But what a Boxing Day game For the neutrals
The players the chairman bought is what made O'Neil. As soon as the money went, he went. Thank God he is not wasting our budget these days on the likes of Habib Beye, Steve Sidwell, Marlon Harewood, Salifou, Luke Young, Zat Knight, Curtis Davies, Nicky Shorey etc etc etc
These are O'Neill's signing at Villa. Some utter shite in here. for every good signing there's four shit ones.

Lerner didn’t want to give money, so he had to sell some players, at least I think that’s how it goes I was only a toddler at the time, O’Neill didn’t want to rebuild and just left, don’t think he’s done a better job with anyone since and he made some very good signings but also made some very costly ones, like Curtis Davies £10m which was a lot of money back then. Lerner is a billionaire and could have easily put more money into the club so, blame has to go on to Martin O’Neill and Lerner
@@cafu-thebrazilianalanhutto6835 Nonsense. MON didn't want to sell as he'd be found out for the grifter he was. Refused to sell, unlike every PL manager. Why? He bought players he never played that were now worth peanuts. Lerner was about to find out it was all a big grift.
How does it feel? Lose Carling cup final, champions league final, premier league title and community shield in just one season? Chelsea could won 4 titles.
He gave a Chelsea penalty that was an obvious dive. The ref was right there. Then there was that 'free kick'. Still, when you have all that money you have to spend it. Plus Phil Dowd was a bad ref.
You know what's crazy? Spurs, Chelsea and Aston Villa all drew 4-4 with each other that season of 2007-08
As I can remember in that season Arsenal-Liverpool in Champions league was 4-4
"Aston Villa could have easily beaten Manchester City..." oh how quickly times change!
Christian Candler I had the same thought just now
Aston Villa nearly beat City again 😂
I've got 115 reasons why..
7:18 Brendan Rodgers
Bramantyo Ibam LOOOL.
And scotty sinclair on the right hand side 😉
Yes
Who's here 2020 oh the good times
WERE BACKINBUSINESSBOISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Shevchenko was quality this game! Cech was shocking 😂
Check out what he said on Obi Mikel Podcast about this game
That was the brightest Premier League decade. AWESOME!
Oh them Chelsea players were experts at throwing themselves to the ground and getting the decisions 👌
This was the first live football game I ever went to! Must have been about 5. Very fond memories, and what a game!
Me too! I was 9
Same here I was 7 lol
One of the best matches ever
Great memories! What a team Villa had.
And manager!!
@@chrisbrotherton4721 He was tactically clueless. Never spent any time with the team. Up his own ar*e.
Watching this after Cech's interview for Obi One podcast

ashley young was way better at villa than he ll ever be at united.
?

Man, Villa was pain in the ass back then, they always used to nick points from us, both home and away.
We weren’t a bad side then , excellent midfield but I do believe the attackers cost us europe in that time period
@@cafu-thebrazilianalanhutto6835 Mourinho never won at Villa Park despite spending billions.
This Villa side should have gone on to win the league.Only needed one or two players....Randy Lerner pulled the pin,the rest is history.
Didn’t realise we were that good, I was only 5 years old this season but looking back on it, the fullbacks and strikers weren’t good enough
Watching at this after the Podcast is very interesting
who's watching in 2017?
Me
2019
2019 mate
2050
2020 cus of covid
im playing aston villa in football manager. jack grealish is quite a talent. hope he develops this good in real life.
Looks like this is the year he finally breaks through.
Look at him now, what a player he is. UTV
Yeah he’s done alright 😂
Well I think it’s safe to say this comment aged extremely well, He’s found some really good form at City now!! He’s a Premier League Winner aswell as a England International who’s in a very small elite Club of England Players who have Played in a Final of a Major Tournament(The next ones ours) and He’s a Goal Scorer in a World Cup..

Tu comentario envejeció bien.
"The man who has scored penalties to win european cups and missed penalties to lose european cups"
Well ._.
I remember Aston Villa giving my team Arsenal a run for their money for the top 4 back in 2009 If I'm not mistaken
Boxing day. I remember this. One of the best games I've ever seen. Back in the day when Villa were enjoyable to watch. I got very very drunk after this
Martin, you'll always be remembered as the man that had too much money to spend.
Absolute grifter, tactically clueless.
Back when Villa knew how to score goals
WE'RE BCK AT IT BRUV
i remember chelsea not being able to defeat villa away from home for 10 years
I looked forward to this match for 4 months and on the morning/afternoon of Boxing Day I overslept and woke up up at 88 minutes gone on the clock.
Gutted.
But what a Boxing Day game For the neutrals
I watched this match...classic!
Well that's a proper premier league match. All the drama, comeback, red cards, controversy, penalties
Time changed for Aston villa.. they were such a tough opponent to beat!
El3bbad we’re back!
I remember this game well lol we had washed up ballack and Pizarro even Shevy but he played well this game
I love Aston villa 4 to villa good job as always
Miss this team so much
0-1 Shaun Maloney (14 min)
0-2 Shaun Maloney (44 min)
1-2 Andriy Shevchenko (45+4 min (PK))
2-2 Andriy Shevchenko (50 min)
3-2 Alex (66 min)
3-3 Martin Laursen (72 min)
4-3 Michael Ballack (88 min)
4-4 Gareth Barry (90+2 min (PK))
Shevaaaa!!!
Lovely match
Cech was really injured this game
Watching this after hearing Petr Cech at Obi One podcast, that he played with a rupture oblique muscle
Gabby was a match for anyone when he could be arsed
And given service. Watkins gets the service but it's still a lottery..
A great day out that was!
What a team we had :(
Shaun maloney was so unique
Remember I was there with my dad and by the time it was 4-4 Chelsea were singing, ‘you’re shit’, had to join in with em 💙
What would VAR say about Cole's handball?
The famous Chelsea screech
Ballack dived to get Chelsea back in the game. Cheat.
โจเซ่ มูรินโญ่ ไปไหนอ่ะ
Good game
Just imagine if we had kept O’Neil
He walked out we couldn't have 'kept' him. Dickhead. Traitor.
The players the chairman bought is what made O'Neil. As soon as the money went, he went. Thank God he is not wasting our budget these days on the likes of Habib Beye, Steve Sidwell, Marlon Harewood, Salifou, Luke Young, Zat Knight, Curtis Davies, Nicky Shorey etc etc etc
@@mrvillan6951 True, an absolute grifter.
Reef Phil dawd man of the match
We need to sell cech. Cant believe he let in those goals

why did Martin O'Neill quit Villa ?? anyone?

good aston
who is watching in 2018?
How does it feel? Lose Carling cup final, champions league final, premier league title and community shield in just one season? Chelsea could won 4 titles.
Ouch
A real "Festive cracker". I don't think anyone present at The Bridge for this one, could have had an complaints about the entertainment value!
the only game remind me of shaun maloney
The ref was so good 10/10
Where is Big Frankie?
Get injuried earlier of the 1st half and substituted Ballack.
@@ilyasyare3479 Probably tucking in to a Double Whopper with large fries.
I think I saw Rodgers at 7:19
he was youth team coach
Make Villa competitive again; total bias
Hilarious how the ref was so pro-chelsea and they still couldn't win!
I dont see how the ref was pro chelsea. Chelsea ended up getting two red cards
+Tom Quixote i see those sunglasses in your picture must be opaque, because you're clearly blind
He gave a Chelsea penalty that was an obvious dive. The ref was right there. Then there was that 'free kick'. Still, when you have all that money you have to spend it. Plus Phil Dowd was a bad ref.
Vanderlynden Jengold and what about the penalty villa got for handball when it actually hit Ashley cole's chest!
5:21 Red card
Can anyone tell me where is Lampard and drogba??
Both in MLS.
Ballack was such a wingeing little baby. So happy when he left English football. Shaun Maloney didn't celebrate much did he???
Neither did Sid Cowans. We never complained. Both gifted.
Aston Villa
Cech still making howlers...
Barely made any until his Arsenal days. He's just explained on a podcast that he couldn't feel the left side of his body during this match.
What Villa team. What scum Ballack was.
Sotc
2 mind in girl screams
Funny how none of them are here now except Terry and John Obi.
Not sure what you mean, of course most players aren't going to be there from 9 years ago, most of the players on the pitch that day were 27+
Jay Cooper Yeah I know, I wasn't saying that they should be. I was just making the point mainly of how long John Obi has been wit us.
Now Terry's at Villa
Up Chelsea
This Game was about the same time as the Ricky Hatton vs Floyd Mayweather Fight!!
