John Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Can't be another Desmond surely? 2-2 and Tammy to score at anytime is 22/1 with Corals but it can't happen again can it? I hope not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 Jedinak just back from a long term injury, won't be fit to start the game, no way. Most likely team: -------------------Kalinic---------------- Hutton------Elphick--Chester---------Taylor ------Hourihane--McGinn--Bjarnason------- Adomah-----------Abraham------------Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted January 25, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2019 Time for Elmo to make a comeback? Most likely result is 2-2. I'm thinking we'll win though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 25, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2019 If Jedanick plays he will get crocked in the first 20 minutes and be out for another 2 months. That is assuming he gets through the warm up which I think is a big assumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I would like to see 4-4-2 with Davis starting. That is not going to happen. What also is not going to happen is a clean sheet, so I am hoping we can outscore them. Going to be an emotional amount when Lambert returns and salutes the Holte End. What times we had with him. The salad days that are a long way away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screwdriver Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 this is MUST WIN for dean smith. the honey moon is over. managers who were appointed at the same time as him have been sacked already (henry) He can no longer get a free pass because "he supports Villa" the board have got to show they are cold calm clinical owners who demand success by taking action if we don't get 3 points today. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I love when I see this on VT and Facebook, "we NEED to win this, Honey moon is over bla bla" While I agree AVFC as a club should be in the PL, the I want it now attitude from both fans, managers and owner is exactly the reason we are where we are. We are in purgatory now and we gotta walk it. Sort out our squad, wages, finances, build brick by brick and get a solid foundation and style of play to get promoted with. This will take time and it will involve a lot of losses. If you as fans can't handle the losses and keep pushing for the revolving door of managers, with the notion that a magical manager will appear and satisfy your "we want it now attitude", then we as a club will never get back to where we want to be. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Its disappointing the players haven't really been responding to all the setbacks since the Swansea win on boxing day. Had a small resurgence to come back last week but this really has to be the one where we hopefully turn a corner. Was really looking forward to this run of games after the 'harder' games but its been another typical Villa car crash of underperforming. If we cant be Lamberks Ipswich we may aswell pack up. 3-1 Villa Please God Damn It Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant recall in recent times a villa manager being given the boot to early.? By October / November this year Smiths villa need to be serious pronotiom contenders...whether we have a brick by brick solid foundation wont cut it IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 (edited) It really hasn't. One thing is if you got the wrong manager in from the start, i.e. Bruce who didn't understand that football had moved on from hoofing. But when you got a young'ish manager who understands this, who has shown he's capable at previous jobs, then it's just a case of having patience and implementing continuity.
