Arj Guy Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 This is a must win, but I have no faith in us even getting a point. Newcastle will be full of confidence after back to back wins, we have none. It is a ground that we haven't won at since 2005. Newcastle have also been very impressive at home in front of the Sky cameras this season. 3-0 Newcastle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yes Newcastle on the back of two wins against top 6 opposition and Garde thinks these are the even games, instead of thinking like Eddie Howe and Mclaren that we can beat the likes of Arsenal.

KHV Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Newcastle finding form, Newcastle also play really well on tv, we are awful at St James's Park. This could be even worse than the KMac game when we got hammered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Remi Garde's Aston Villa season starts here We need 3 pts by hook, crook or luck. 1pt with an organised solid performance that shows signs of improvement would be acceptable considering Toons frontline and the 2 good wins against plop/spuds. From now on in, no excuses or margins for error if we're to survive 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted December 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2015 Its a good thing Newcastle got those two recent results, means they'll keep schteve mclaren until it's too late. They'll be overconfident and we'll get a nervy 1-2 win which will just prolong our pain and misery by giving us hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raver50032 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'll put money on that cynical and bitter little cockling John Carver being a pundit for this one. He would love it... just love it, if Villa went down... I knew that 'Sob on the Tyne' banner would backfire on us one day... Going to be a horrible last home fixture for us...

We need goals and I think the 4-2-3-1 suits us with the personnel we have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Think we need a platform to build on, so although we need to win games fast it is a must not lose game for me now! We therefore need to be solid at the back and have pace up top. Richards back hopefully and perhaps Westwood can feed the front 3 better than Sanchez? ----------Guzan--------------Okore-Richards-Lescott-Clark----------Westwood---------------Gana---------Veretout----Traore----Ayew----Sinclair Would have Grealish and Gil coming off the bench to keep the ball better in the second half. Score draw for me but would love to sneak a 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingsombrero Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Win it and we've got a shot at survival but lets be honest it's just not happening. This is the one where everyone will have to accept where we are heading. If we start properly preparing for the Championship in January we may be able to minimise the damage the drop is going to do to us and have a chance of bouncing back up. If we pack the team full of past it journeymen (as I fear we will) in a futile attempt at escape we could easily end up another Forest, Leeds or Wednesday.

supernova26 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) Draw not good enough. A win is beyond imperative. Adama will need to play. We may still lose. But the time for gambling is now. I'd go ----------------Bunn------------------ Hutton-Okore-Richards-Bacuna ------------Gana----Sanchez--------------- ------------------Gill------------------ Traore-----Ayew------Agbonlahor/Nzog And tell **** Hutton not to go beyond the half way line.

villan_007 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 This really is it - my last bit of hope is on this game. Anybody putting Clark or Lescott at LB, please meet me at the back of reception, wait till you hear a single gun shot, then report back for further information. Come on Villa!!!! please!!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Even if we somehow win this game we'll still go down. We're the worst team in the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
