Brumstopdogs Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Ollie Watkins scored 2 at the Emirates last time we played them there and also scored against Arsenal at home. Although he isn't in good form I would persist with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PussEKatt Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 In his current form,its asking a bit much from Watkins to score enough goals to win the game for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope the 2 extra days rest count for something. It's funny how this often isn't the case... or maybe it's just a Villa thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they have a decent XI with everyone seemingly fit. They scraped wins against Norwich and Burnley, played well for a half in their derby before getting dominated at Brighton. Palace I expect will give them a decent game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 The fans will be frothing seeing this as some kind of grudge match after the recent results against them and the Buendia/Smith-Rowe sagas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Spoony Posted October 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2021 Well fwiw I’m going and I’ve never seen Villa lose live. Closest I came was when we were 3-0 to Shef Utd with 10 mins left and we still didn’t lose… 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 At least even if we lose badly it'll still be less disgusting than what happened on Saturday, so it's basically all but guaranteed that I'll come away from this game feeling less pissed off than I did then.

villa4europe Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Hopefully we do the same as last year, give them zero respect and go to play our stuff, we go at them fast and early they're there for the taking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VT Supporter flashingqwerty Posted October 18, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 18, 2021 Fully expect us to get turned over, so hopefully that means a win. Fully expected us to beat Wolves and we lost,,, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I think we’ll win this one, the players will be itching to set the record straight after throwing away the points on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
