supermon Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Another tough match, they've found some form. Do wonder whether we have the legs to keep going. Just hope Emi is back for this one, could really do with Cash, Kamara n Coutinho back for the following weekend. Really need that kinda quality on the bench n then for the run in 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 They took a few knocks at the end of today's match, Willian went down and then off so see if he recovers in 72 hours. We need to win the midfield battle as Paliniha, Reed and Periera have been excellent all season and can narrow the gaps infront of backline. I think it will be similar to today's game. They'll congest us in central areas and hit it up quickly for likes of Wilson and Dan James to try to beat our offside trap (which worked well today). At least Mitrovic isn't around and they don't have as much of a scoring threat without him. I'll go for a comeback 2-1 win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted April 22, 2023 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2023 At night, at Villa Park, unbeaten in umpteen - this should be a really good atmosphere - hopefully we can use that to push them over the line. I have a weird feeling we're in a battle with Tottenham for 7th. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a weird feeling we're in a battle with Tottenham for 7th. I think it's us, Spurs and Brighton battling for 6th and 7th. Brighton have three games in hand but play Man C, Man U, Newcastle and Arsenal in those last 9 plus we have them and Spurs at home so I think if we win both those we have a real chance of at least 7th. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Any danger of seeing any of our injured players back in contention do we reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 If we harbour any hopes of European football we have to win this one. Really could do with Kamara back. I know Dendocker was good against Newcastle but today he was woeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't Cash supposed to be only three weeks. He should be back in next week. Problem was we rushed Kamara back to start v Chelsea, that won't happen again and we'll ease him off the bench with 20 minutes left, again would be good if he's available for Tuesday.

Keener window-cleaner Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I hope he rotates a bit to the Fulham game, it's hard to be 100% in all 3 games in about 10 days and I thought some looked a bit off it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Digne, Chambers and Traore can come in but not much else he can do really without severely weakening the team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky when we have 5 players injured and possibly a sickness/illness bug going round the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viivvaa66 Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Last time we played 1-1, we went on a 5 win streak, hope we can repeat that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) Hopefully the home crowd will buoy them. I think the comedown from the Newcastle high and subsequent media buzz effected them yesterday and might still on Tuesday. A buoyant crowd will be really important.

TheAuthority Posted April 23, 2023 Author VT Supporter Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) They know they didn't play well today and will be well up for putting it right on Tuesday night. I could see a 3 or 4-0. (I could also see a nervy 1-0 with Bertie scoring in the 94 minute.) We have conceded only 2 goals from open play in 9 games - that's insanely good form. If you extrapolate that over a season that comes to between 8 and 9 goals total Incredible. We also score every game. So to any who doubt we are still well in the mix for 6th and with a chance of top 4 Edited April 23, 2023 by TheAuthority 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted April 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 23, 2023 If we avoid defeat here it's the magic 10 in a row, with only (hopefully) 2 draws. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romavillan Posted April 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 23, 2023 It's about time we absolutely stuffed someone. Villa Park owes me one as the last time I was there was the shortest football I have ever seen Villa play live, the WBA loss at home under that word removed Sherwood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
