Jareth Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Said it before but definitely watching the Bournemouth game today - that is the one to watch. No way Watford get anything, and that is a fully considered opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't trust Arsenal one bit, I'm very worried Watford will try to rough them up and they will have one eye on the final and pull out of 50/50s. They also seem very fragile at set pieces. I also don't trust what side they are even going to put out today. Knowing our luck the likes of Aubameyang will be on the bench. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but I've thought it through like a gazillion times - I know it's one game, but there is absolutely no signal of Watford being in the right frame of mind - let alone how Arsenal feel having not registered a shot on target Vs us.

I dont trust arsenal either, they were toothless against us and will be similar today. We need to ignore the others and just win. Beating west ham by 2 would likely do it. If we spending the day relaying on arsenal, I'll be in bits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He definitely will be I put him as my dream team captain this week! But seriously hasn’t he got a chance of getting the golden boot? So I think he will play and score a couple hopefully. Arteta also spoke midweek about fielding a strong team out because teams are involved in a relegation battle and it’s fair so hopefully he does that.

DaveAV1 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Trying to look at this logically, which is probably flawed anyway, but hey ho still 7 hours to kick off. We are all away so no advantage there. Except perhaps Arsenal at home are considerably better than they are away. None of the opponents have any specific need to win, other than professional pride etc, so again no advantage. The advantage that the other two have, particularly Bournemouth, is that they have to win and in a way that means that they will feel that they have to go for it. Bournemouth to some extent have nothing to lose and that may be liberating for them. Where we perhaps have a slight advantage is that we are playing the team in the league closest to us and so in theory the worst of the three. They have found some form recently, but then so have we. Aston Villa before shut down would almost certainly have lost, but we are a different side now. If we show passion, commitment and composure we are good enough to see this through.

Popular Post NurembergVillan Posted July 26, 2020 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted July 26, 2020 Our Father, Who art McGregor, hallowed be Thy League. Thy 3 points come. Thy will be done on turf, down there in London. Put us today, a few goals ahead. And forgive us our bad passes, as we often squander back-passes against us. And lead us not into relegation, but deliver us from EFL. For higher is the income, The power, and the glory, Even in mid-table forever.

bobzy Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I reckon it’ll be Watford winning 1-0, Bournemouth winning 1-0 and we’re drawing 0-0 in the 93rd minute. Snoddy knows what’s up. He still loves the boys. Casually bangs in a 30 yard own goal to let Villa survive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
