We’ll know more tomorrow but I could see them winning it. Best defensive team will win the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) Think team who can actually put out 11 fit players at the end will win it. Players now been at it for 12 months with pretty much no break so can see impact of that when games go into extra time. Add in covid and team who reaches final could easily have 5-6 players out for various reasons if unlucky.

Rino8 Posted June 28, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2021 3/5 atb tomorrow apparently. I don't hate it for this game and in theory it suits our flat midfield, gives Kane legitimately 50 yards to do whatever the **** he wants in and all we have to do is get the ball wide and forward quickly. Might work, probably be a shite watch still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robby b Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Kick off time here in Bolivia midday and I have to vacate my hotel room by midday, then catch a bus from La Paz to Oruro, three and a half hours journey, old smartphone stopped working a few months ago, still haven't got round to replacing it (oops. But even if I had, I don't know if a UK network would work out here). So I'll spend the journey looking at Bolivia whilst on and off thinking about the game and assuming that we're going out against Germany yet again as usual but not 100% totally sure, so it will be a long wait to find out the result ! : s 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we play some of the worst football I've ever seen the notion that we could just do it has wormed it's way in to my head, we can do it because we play terrible football Its the hope that kills you Edited June 29, 2021 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC_Hitz Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 We could one nil our way to the cup and do a Greece. Turgid poo poo football. I wouldn't celebrate it the same way, I don't think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robby b Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Beating Germany in the knock-out stage of a major tournament is a bit like Villa beating Man Utd at Villa Park in the league. It doesn't happen. (And hasn't happened since the last ice age). Oh well, never mind, thankfully it's only a game! :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least then I won't be jealous of Greece (and Denmark, Portugal, France, Spain, Germany... ) and we will have actually won a major tournament in my lifetime. Let's just get on that Euros list, that would be a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
