SuperTed Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Pulisic is an immense player, though I am surprised he’s started as he’s quite prone to hamstring injuries and I don’t think is 100% yet. Hudson-Odoi will be one to watch too. I honestly don’t know how this one is going to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 we will need to use all 3 subs today I expect to save the legs regardless of how the game is going. If we don't then there will presumably be a few changes to the starting line up against Manchester United. But ok, come on. Whatever happens results wise I feel more confident now we will play well today. I hope hubris doesn't bite us on the ass. We were well beaten in this fixture last time, also on Prime as I recall. I'll predict another 4-4 draw like that mental game a decade ago 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Need to be cautious of our old pal Tammy. Despite Chelsea losing to Arsenal he still managed to get a goal. We know how dangerous TamTam can be if you give him room, not to mention how he works his socks off all game long, our defenders need to be on point.

It's Your Round Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I just hope we don’t suffer any serious injuries. 48 hours between games and starting the same team doesn’t leave much room for recovery. At least Konsa only played one half so should be fresh. I worry about McGinn, Watkins and Grealish. I know Jack is extremely fit but if there’s ever a time to pick an injury up... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Villa Team picks itself at the moment. I’m feeling positive about this. I’m sure we’ll give Chelsea a game and there’s a good chance we’ll come away with something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 May I just apologise in advance if the score isn't accurate. But I'm sure we will all take a 4-0 win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Gonna be a tough game today a bit like the Leicester one. However they've gone very defensive which is a compliment to us. Their defence is woeful though and Rudiger is always game for a red. Azpilecueta v Grealish is the game winning battle. If we get more than 12 shots at goal I'll be very impressed.

bobzy Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 The problem we're going to have here is Mount/Pulisic/Hudson-Odoi. Traditionally, we struggle more against players who run with the ball with pace (I guess... who doesn't have a problem with this, to some extent?!). I reckon... Chelsea 2 - 1 Villa. More confident going away to Chelsea than I can remember, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I know they're Chelsea and everything but we're above them with 2 games in hand, and the bookies have them better than evens to beat us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-R Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) I've a feeling the manager will of ripped into them after Arsenal defeat and they will show up against us and might just nick it. Hope I'm wrong though. Edited December 28, 2020 by Dave-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 That Chelsea bench is insane. Still feel like we are good enough to get a result today. Need to watch Pulisic closely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Lampard looks concerned. Hope we can have a goal or 2 lead before they can start making changes. Lots of quality they can bring on against tired legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
