AvfcRigo82 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 **** me we've not even warmed up yet and the doom merchants out in force already!.. Let's give the starting XI a chance fellas. Smith is working with the cards he has been dealt. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not long ago we totally outplayed Derby and Boro away, pissed on the shit and scored goals for fun. Every Villa fan believed in promotion and now it's just doom and gloom. The one difference is Grealish. I am starting to believe is he actually much better than what most think. I don't think he is better than we think. what he brings to the team is a spark, a confidence that obviously is not there without him. This is an old, slow team who quickly ran out of gas. We need virtually a new team when you consider that team sheet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather bet against us and win money as a consolation if we do lose than have us lose and lose money. Even when I bet against Villa I'd still always rather lose the money. same here. I don't want us to lose but if we do a couple of hundred quid lessens the annoyance somewhat. If we win & i lose the money then i don't really care because we have won. Draws are just annoying either way though Far more annoying betting on us to win against shit like Wigan & end up getting dicked 3-0 & being out of pocket. Aston Villa have been responsible for me losing far more money than any other team/horse etc over the years Edited January 19, 2019 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be in the Premieré to build a decent team imo. I don't fancy building a new team in the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Interesting that Keinan Davis is preferred on the bench and to whatshisnamethatusedtoplayforbrentford. Otherwise it's an utterly uninspiring team. Seeing Bjarnason in the team makes me sad, I'm not one for hyperbole but I genuinely feel that Doyle-Hayes would be much more useful in the midfield. The front three should be dangerous, if we can get the ball to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Hopefully this can be a game where the players surprise us and click for 90 mins. Last few games have been pretty abysmal. Had a weeks rest two weeks running now, lethargy should not be an issue today. Get that press going. Hull have been very good lately, but they were truly shocking on thay opening day. Going for 2-1 Villa. Elphick bound to give away a pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do that and you’re happy with either outcome. I do that and I’m depressed with either outcome. That might explain my life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be for the sake of it, it'd be because Neil Taylor is an absolute waste of space. Hutton is shit, and yet he's still the best left back at the club, it's astonishing we haven't brought anyone in yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a grand on the 97 cup final between Chelseas & Boro. Needed some cash for something & stupidly decided chucking a grand on a random match was the way to get it. Was happy enough when Chelsea scored after a minute but it was pretty much all Boro after that with 2 disallowed goals and dematteo & lebeuf should probably have both been sent off for kicking juninho into the middle of the next week. Think i was only on about 12 grand a year at the time so it was a big bet & a rather nerve wracking experience. Anyway i have also added Hull to todays acca so we're bound to bugger it up and beat them/get a point now Edited January 19, 2019 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was so out of his depth is was truly embarrassing. Cannot see a week of training will fix all that but hope I am wrong. I remember Ugo's - God bless him- debut, an absolute nightmare, but he turned out not too bad a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtaylor200 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Come on Alan I make no bones about it I am a Hutton fan. Yes he is a defender that thinks he is a winger. Thank god. He is the only one that attacks most of the time, rarely passes it backwards, reminds me of Willie Anderson back in the 70s. Come on Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came on as a sub with about 15 minutes left, He took a throw, teammate passed it back to him and it went straight through his legs for a throw. A couple of minutes later he gave the ball away and injured himself trying to get it back. Pretty much sums up his 4 years at Wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
