fightoffyour Posted June 22, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2020 Burnley may well play a big role in the relegation battle since they have matches against Watford, West Ham, Norwich and Brighton still. They've also got a shot at a Europa League place still, so should remain motivated if they can keep up with the pack. If they can start doing that by pulling a result out of the bag tonight against Man City it will also contribute to Liverpool winning the title before they face us, which would be an added bonus.

He knew what he was doing. First time see. It today wasn’t as bad as suspected. Probably not even a foul only because it’s a GK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurru991 Posted June 22, 2020 Visiting Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2020 I would have Maupay in any team of mine. Villa could use a few lads with his intensity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knew what he was doing. You see those incidents every game though. How often do you see a keeper claim a cross from a corner and a forward going for the ball bumps/clatters into him. Or even when a forward lunges for the ball from a cross and catches the keeper, Dwight Gayle last season in the play offs. Must admit when I first saw the incident I though "is that it?" It was just unfortunate Leno got a bad injury, pretty freakish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just need to hope beyond hope that West Ham and Bournemouth keep losing. I can't see us getting past 32/33 points in truth. As soon as one of those wins a match, we're in serious s***. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Leicester could slip up against Brighton, think they've only won one of their last six, which of course was against us. But if Brighton do lose and we win tomorrow then we're suddenly only three points behind them and three of their next four fixtures are Untied, CIty and Liverpool.

thabucks Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 See Leicester and Brighton are both playing two up top... Davis desperately needs support So I’d go 2 up top for Toon and ditch 433 which blatantly isn’t working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I think Watford are too good to go down and i think Moyes have enough experience to get West Ham out of it. Bournemouth, Villa and Norwich will go down imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Since the back to back wins vs. Watford & Leicester, our form: Bournemouth 2-1 Villa Villa 2-3 Spurs Southampton 2-0 Villa Leicester 4-0 Villa Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd Villa 1-2 Chelsea with a cup final loss thrown in the middle, the countless VAR screwing overs, last minute mistakes, leads thrown away time and time again it really is hard to see how we pick ourselves up off the ground and show that we can at least compete in these last 8 games. Our confidence has been shot to pieces countless times this season, we have no form or threat to call upon. only positive is I guess a Bruce side would be the one game you’d pick to maybe turn things around. Its Smiths job to get a reaction tomorrow, entering last chance saloon now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Watching the pressing and competitiveness of a well organised And disciplined Brighton side so far this half just highlights how poor our general play is and how bad we are set up. This is what I expected of a Smith side to look like rather than the clueless tripe served up since October/ November. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
