turvontour Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 It's bonkers how many people are pessimistic given what we see from villa at villa Park. Of course we could lose today but there's no basis to expect it. The majority of the posts in the west ham and Brighton pre match threads were how they were both likely to get something. And we beat them 10-2. And they were about 5th in the league when we played them both as an average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted October 29, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2023 These lot really are shite. First ever 10-0 in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevonIsAPlaceOnEarth Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 The Villa of old would be arrogant and lose 1-0. I expect Emery to keep everyone focussed, I can see it being tighter than everyone thinks but still 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtaylor200 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Another boring 4 or 5 goals performance. Expect we will win again next week too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at how that video ends the Lion just snaps it between his teeth. Bit of awkwardness followed by total slaughter.

Now I'm worried that we're going to turn up and hammer them but end up losing 0-1 to a wicked deflection and a career highlight goalkeeping performance.

calcifer Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Just hope the players don't get complacent. On paper easy victory, but Luton could just park the bus, get battered by us, then get a lucky break and score. 1-0. There are no real easy games in the league, these types of games are potential banana skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted October 29, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2023 I feel cautiously optimistic about this game. First goal is crucial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allani Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 In some ways this could be harder than the West Ham match. Expectations are high, fans predicting an absolute hammering, tempation for the players to feel over-confident on the back of two excellent wins in the last 7 days, etc. I think Luton will be playing to get to 30-40 minutes at 0-0 and hoping that the crowd start to get impatient and our players start trying to push things too quickly. I still expect a win - but I could see it being a nervous, low-key affair with maybe us getting a very late goal. By the same token I can see us getting a couple of early goals and strolling to an easy win. I don't think we will score loads as if we get 2 or 3 up then we're more likely to ease back, protect some legs and conserve some energy. I'm going 3-1 (3-0 up and then conceding a silly goal and being put under a bit more pressure than we should with about 15 mins left). I hope we get close to double figures though!

DakotaVilla Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 This game will be harbinger of games to come. Most teams from now on will come to VP with fear and will be delighted with a point. Only the likes of Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool will be indifferent to our home form. Im sure Emery is ready for the challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
