But then for some reason it goes to extra time and penalties where 2 of my ex girlfriends end up playing. Villa are looking good to win the shootout with Robin Olsen saving a penalty but then the dream ended. So make of that what you will. hmmm, depends were the ex girlfriends playing for Villa or City? What was the sponsor on their kit? Viagra? Penis enlargement company? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pongo Waring Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 3-0 Villa is my prediction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Our best bet is hitting them on the counter like Spurs did and we need runners in order for this to work. Tielemans has to drop out for this one, Moreno and JJ would be the idea left side system as it means McGinn can stick to the RM slot where he is best. I think it's unlikely Bailey starts back to back games and Diaby will come in but maybe the ideal plan of attack is to overload the right side with pace. Bailey RM and Diaby behind Watkins and attack Ake/Kovacic areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted December 5, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) Absolute cheating shitebags. And they in fact relatively shite without Rodri. A game for the ages, 5-1 Villa. Edited December 5, 2023 by fightoffyour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey RM and Diaby behind Watkins and attack Ake/Kovacic areas. JJ left Watkins central and Bailey right to try and do what spurs did to their backline, would mean JJ playing higher up the pitch. Spurs often had their front three really wide and on the shoulders of the city defense. We don't really play a three but we should be trying to threaten in behind as much as we can. Especially at home. Be an interesting selection tomorrow, we really need to play a RB at RB and have Konsa central to get balance at the back too...

TheMelvillan Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 without Rodri theyll have to rethink who is gonna be the one to smash it in unmarked from the edge of the box after Villa clear a corner. or maybe we may choose to actually protect that area for a change! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) I hope, I am wrong....but I just simply don't think we have the ability to stop them. Their running and movement will trump us. outscoring them is our only chance, I suspect. crowd, will play a big part.

Popular Post rjw63 Posted December 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2023 Dreading this. They haven’t won in three. We haven’t lost at home in 13. It’s live on TV. They are the stats that normally point to us rolling over, I **** hope we don’t. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Atmosphere *should* be the best of the season by some margin. This is Aston Villa in a top 4 race ffs. Hope it’s absolutely deafening and can inspire us from the first whistle. These are the best times the club have seen for ages, there’s no excuse tomorrow under the lights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
