maqroll Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I'd rather play them in the 3rd round and beat them than lose to them in the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same side as last night might lose 18-0. Probably need to be near full strength so it doesn't get out of hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallisFrizz Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I thought they’d be equally fed up at drawing another prem side. Quick look at their Twitter account, turns out their fans think it’ll be an easy win. I hope we stuff them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't get that this time, hopefully we get some for the FA Cup Ahhh ... Perhaps we'll get Wycombe in the fourth round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awol Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) 3 days after Everton, 3 days before Man Utd. Gonna be hard to play anything like a full strength team, but if we did then why couldn’t we beat them? Should be ticking over nicely by then and have the new boys fully fit and properly integrated. Edit: just checked and the game falls between Spurs and Man City for them, so Chelsea might not play a full strength team either - although their strength in depth is somewhat.. deeper.

fightoffyour Posted August 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) JPB and Archer deserve their place. Hause will eat Lukaku for breakfast. Targett marauding down the left. Steer will stare at someone. The Chuckle brothers running rampant. Conor will be...supporting from afar. Bring it on!

thunderball Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 We have a better chance of beating them in this than in the league. It’s depends what team we want to field, they won’t be full strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them and City are the main threats. Other we can handle I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 If we were planning to play our b side for the whole tournament then it's a shit draw for us. Could mean only one more full game of experience for them instead of a run of a few. If we were trying to win it then it makes no difference really. We'd have had to play someone decent at some point, just means we may end up playing someone decent an extra game en route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Eh, if we had designs on winning the thing we'd have to face someone like this at some point. Can't always get as lucky as 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I hope we get Sheffield utd somewhere. Both Derby and UTD looked dodgy and although the game was won by UTD they didn't look ever like they were going to beat Derby. I think we would make a meal of them and I'd love it to be played at the UTD ground so I can go work there and watch my team throttle UTD. Somehow I will find a way to wear something Villa in the UTD stand lol. Edited August 26, 2021 by Dave-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
