OutByEaster? Posted November 20, 2014 Moderator Share Posted November 20, 2014 Southampton have also got a bit of an injury crisis for this one, they're down to the bares bones. A two nil win for them is my prediction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il_serpente Posted November 20, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hutton fit, vlaar senderos & baker all out. With that id go-------------guzan------------------Hutton okore Clark------Lowton------------------cissoko---cleverly Sanchez Westwood-----------weimann agbonlahor---If playing with wingbacks I'd use Richardson over Cissokho. Cissokho gets forward but has no end product. His defending is better but less critical with 3 at the back. With that said, I think 4 at the back is still the way to go.

AVTuco Posted November 20, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2014 I wish this game would start already. All threads are full of people arguing and bickering. Even if we lose, there's going to be something new to moan about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Think it could be one of those we win. Completely unexpected but somehow we pull it off. Don't think it will mean much for the long run but I won't be surprised if we get 3 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 10) Hardly an acid test for high-flying Southampton Even Albert Hofmann would have struggled to envisage a home win here. Southampton are solid and slick and have the best defence in the league, while Aston Villa have not scored in six of their last seven league matches and for this match they will be deprived of their best striker, Christian Benteke, as well as their best midfielder, Fabian Delph still being out, and possibly their best defenders, with Ron Vlaar, Philippe Senderos and Alan Hutton all doubts. So if you are partial to some boos on a work night, head to Villa Park around closing time on Monday. PD The Guardian. They're right. All we can hope for is a fired-up Villa and a complacent Southampton http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/nov/21/premier-league-10-things-look-out-for-weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 21, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2014 The club seem to be tweeting about the 21st minute applause, so it would appear that they're on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshVilla Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Lawro has us down to win this one......hmmmm The thing is, we can do it. If we take our chances and the back 4 concentrates 100% for 90 minutes then we're more than capable, but that's exactly what we struggle to do. Too many times do our defenders get caught ball watching and lose their man (the amount of times I've seen Clark do that is ridiculous, so I hope he proves us wrong on Monday). It'll be interesting if Okore gets a start. He'll certainly have his work cut out, and there'll be a lot of pressure on him to perform after being out for so long with such a bad injury, but he'll have to start somewhere. Without Benteke, it's difficult to see where the goals will come from, which is why we really need to start making the most of any chances or half chances that we get.

krisagg75 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 no sound reasoning whatsoever,probably down to pure optimism but i think we'll sneak it 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) 4 at the back, 3 defensive midfielders, 3 up front (one of which is Gabby so might aswell be 2) with a counter attacking style. We go again. Edited November 21, 2014 by Brumstopdogs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 If someone had said you would get 4/1 - 9/2 for Villa at home to Southampton a couple seasons back, You would have thought they was on crystal meth! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
