Only a small example but makes you wonder if in a small way it suggests that home advantage might be lost without a crowd. Seems like our stronger team with most of our main 11 played at Villa Park whilst our King Power team had 3 first 11 players (Vardy, Ndidi, Barnes) and the rest squad players/youth (from social media pictures of the matches) Wouldn't take much from these anyway, from the footage of these friendlies it looks like a lot of players aren't putting in a lot serious effort, just using them to build up fitness 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted June 10, 2020 Moderator Share Posted June 10, 2020 I can't quite tell from that film who was in our line up - Trezeguet was the goalscorer, looks like Jota down the right hand side, I think Elmohamdy behind him. Is it Targett's ball in to Samatta for the back heel that sets it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds small minded but I'm convinced there would definitely be easily a hundred or more of our fan base that wouldn't be able to help themselves. Same with any club achieving anything. Increase/ decrease the number gathering based on the size of the achievement, the size of the fan base, and the general intelligence of the fans. A liverpool title decider being played in southampton won't stop their fans gathering in huge numbers, it will just mean they'll be doing it in liverpool and Southampton Meeting up say in Brum city centre to celebrate just avoiding relegation would be pretty small time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drinkwater started the game at the King Power A few pictures here you could look at, not much good at noticing who Villa players are unfortunately! I think I spotted McGinn playing in the Villa Park game? https://www.lcfc.com/galleries/1680100/joint-training-exercises-take-place-at-villa-park--king-power-stadium 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I think players that thrive on confidence will do well under closed the doors. It’s almost like a training game atmosphere so those that do well in training may do ok in games. I think players like Trez and Luiz will enjoy their football more without a crowd.

Looks like more of a first XI at Villa Park Villa 0-1 Leicester Hause McGinn Luiz El Ghazi Grealish Samatta Leicester 0-3 Villa Nyland Elmo #5 Who the hell is this? Lansbury? Jack Clarke or Jake Walker maybe? Mungo Bridge? - There's some very large hair at the back on that Trez goal.

Dave-R Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Leicester GK looked extremely pissed at that goal when he kicked it back in net. A good couple of results really but I wont get to optimistic until the game against sheffield is done. We better beat Sheff utd or I'm taking alot of flack, especially if the league cancel the season afterwards and it is sheff utd who relegate us, I'll never hear the end of it.
