  1. Could be a genius line up this. Extra height, physicality, power and pace. 1-3 Villa UTV
  2. Had to miss the game today but great result and pleased to see Dali and Salmon score. Hopefully a confidence boost for us going into the remaining games.
  3. Yep, you’re probably right with that one. Bailey, Diaby and Watkins should cause them all sorts of problems. Duran itching to come off the bench as well.
  4. Maybe, but prefer Diaby closer to Watkins if I’m honest. Martinez Konsa Lenglet Pau Digne Iroegbunam Luiz Bailey Tielemans Diaby Watkins
  5. Martinez Konsa Lenglet Pau Digne Iroegbunam Luiz Bailey Tielemans Diaby Watkins Subs: Olsen, Cash, Moreno, Carlos?, Chambers, Ramsey?, Rogers, Zaniolo, Duran
  6. Rogers on a final warning? Gonna need to take him off at HT as this ref is trigger happy. Tielemans or Kellyman?
  7. C’mon you Villa boys Fast start and just blow them away
  8. Martinez Cash Carlos Lenglet Moreno Iroegbunam McGinn Diaby Zaniolo Rogers Watkins Konsa suspended and not sure it’s wise asking Pau to play three games in a week after his recent injury concerns. Chambers isn’t even registered is he? Maybe give Tielemans, Luiz and Bailey a rest. Hopefully give some minutes to KKH, Ramsey, Kellyman and Duran.
  9. Gutting, deflating, annoying. Yes and more but…. Draw a line, move on and figure out how we win on Thursday. Still lots to play for.
  10. Pretty brutal but the result wasn’t unexpected. I think the injuries have finally caught up with us. Important week ahead. Need to regroup and focus for Thursday.
  11. Injuries have finally caught up with us. Players looked knackered after 35 minutes.
  12. No point feeling sorry for ourselves. Still plenty to play for, starting Thursday.
  13. Was afraid of this performance and now down to ten. Could end up 3 or 4 goals by the end.
  14. So many times we’ve been sloppy after HT. We need to make some changes and bring some energy back.
  15. Winning the midfield battle is key. Hoping McGinn, Luiz and Tielemans can come out on top.
  16. Ok interesting, so a 3-5-2 / 5-3-2?
  17. Have to say I am a little worried/nervous for this one. Could be defining and shape our run in. Hoping to see a similar Newcastle at home last season performance, rather than the Newcastle at home this season. Spurs will try and bully us early to get a foothold, so we need to stand up to them. Konsa, Lenglet and Pau all start for me, alongside Digne. That’s probably our strongest back four right now. Would also love Ramsey to start to keep Porro occupied but not sure he will. Get McGinn into Maddison early and try and control the midfield. Watkins and Bailey masterclass fingers crossed. Would love a Villa win but would happily take a point.
  18. Haven’t seen the post match interview yet but hopefully later. Very disappointing evening, especially that first half display. Arsenal were clearly favourites and have the better side, but we should have been more competitive in that first half. The amount of standing off and lack of pressure on the opponent was shocking. We seemed very frustrated and deflated quite early. Daly especially cut an isolated figure and was showing her anger at players for not pressing or losing the ball. I do worry if she’ll think about moving on in the summer? Clearly we’re lacking numbers due to injuries etc but I do think Carla Ward has to take some responsibility here. Surely we can set ourselves up to frustrate the opponent better? Her options are limited for sure but I would want to see much more from the players. We’ve had some better results since January but nowhere near the same level of quality from last season. It going to very interesting to see what the club wants to do in the summer. We probably need five or six coming in and no doubt we’ll see a similar amount leaving or not having new contracts/extended etc. I do hope the club continue to back Carla or whoever because the woman’s team is important to our growth. It’s enjoyable alongside the men’s team. For now though, we’ll probably limp towards the end of the season with some decent results thrown in hopefully.
  19. 3-0 embarrassing. Just can’t defend correctly and basically standing off them. Game over.
