Dr_Pangloss Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Wouldn't be overly surprised if we get turned over by them but I think we'll win a tight game. 2-1 having gone a goal down in the first 20 mins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deisler123 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 first match of the season, 1 point is good enough. 3 points will be fantastic. I don't neccesarily expect to see beautiful football. Too many new faces in the XI and we need at least a draw to build the confidence up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very tough game today. Would be happy with a point. Winning the two home games and that would be a good start to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny because if you weren't you would be absolutely right. No sarcasm. Any of my teams? I only put one on here at the beginning of the thread didn't I? I think I overlooked him as there was some speculation about him moving on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stockport_Villain Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Over the Pennines to watch this. McCormack to start and influence the game. I think we will win this but it will be close. UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno_2004 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Is it too much to ask that we just avoid some sort of defensive implosion and show a bit of attacking intent? At this stage I would genuinely be happy with that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reivax_Villa Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) It's going to be an interesting game because we are going to see what level we are in terms of quality in this league. The only thing that i'm worried about in this game is the lack of bite and goals in our midfield which is the difference between ourselves and Wednesday. We don't have a player that can pick a player out and i really don't know where our chances are going to come from, however Wednesday do know.. I'm going for a Wednesday win Edited August 7, 2016 by Reivax_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 As this lot are one of the better teams in the Championship, today will be a very good yard stick of the strength, or lack of it, we can expect this season. 2-0 win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Gollini Hutton Elphick Baker Bennett Westwood Gardner Green Ayew Grealish Gestede Bunn, Okore, McCormack, Tshibola, Cissokho, Lyden, Hepburn-Murphy That's what I think will be most effective and get us a decent showing. Which basically shows how horribly unbalanced the squad is once you take out all the guys everyone hates from last year. Adama and Amavi returning will improve the look of the lineup however, as would some new signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Really couldn't have had a tougher opening game. I forgot what it's like to wake up in the morning and actually have some feeling towards a Villa game after last season, bring it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I still think any team with Hutton, Gestede, Baker, Westwood and Cissokho in it - is going to be average and concede stupid goals. Does that mean our side is worse than other teams? No idea. But i hope RDM realises that our defence can't rush out to support each attack and leave massive gaps.

tinker Posted August 7, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 7, 2016 We need to hold onto the ball and frustrate Wednesday , Bannan struggles to win possession or keep it when hes under pressure. Heart saying 3-1 win but my head saying 3-1 loss , hard first game , UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
