Popular Post Mazrim Posted May 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2019 Ended our winning run when we were strolling around taking it easy in preparation for the playoffs, without our first choice striker, trying to kick lumps out of us and playing like the Germans in Escape to Victory. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's weak then we will get kicked all over the pitch , we need him to punish the first foul on Grealish , if that happens then we will best them . I watched the Derby v Leeds game yesterday alongside my Dad. At half time, I said that Leeds didn't look half as dirty as when we played them. Then, second half, they went back to type and started roughing Derby up. What you said about the referee is spot on. Get a solid ref who notices all the niggly challenges and cheating and Villa beat Leeds comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I think we are good enough to beat Leeds even if they are allowed to play their dirty bullshit. The last time I think we would have ended up winning it if it wasn't for the red card wrongly given En Ghazi. That totally changed the momentum of the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing personal mate but i absolutely abhor in football and sport when people look too far down the road. We are not playing Leeds. We are not in the final. We have to play what i think will be a very tough game to have an opportunity to contest the final. Tuesday night is not a gimme. We need to be right on it mentally and our level of football needs to be sharp too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget the cheating and being dirty dirty bastards part. Villa to beat BBB, FLD to make a comeback against DDL making it a Villa Derby final. Come on!!!!!!

Unfortunately we'll play against Leeds, and they know how to play against us. It will be very close, so close it's unfair. We know how to play against them too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wilko154 Posted May 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 13, 2019 I love the confidence here but can we just concentrate on beating Albion tomorrow to get ourselves to Wembley before we start deciding how beatable Leeds/Derby are 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the discussion around Leeds/Derby, I think Leeds go through comfortably. I'm worried about them if we get to the final. They're well capable of winning on their day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazrim Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 With Bamford returning, their Amateur dramatics will be too strong for the rest. Makes them big favourites now. I'm sure Villalad will join me in some gut-churning simpering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the ability to frustrate us and hurt us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
