DakotaVilla Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Another test for this wonderful team. Can we perform under the pressure of going top of the league? Previous teams would have choked or labored to a very uneasy 1-0 win against a low block team. In a dream world we get an early goal and can really put on a performance (and help the goal difference) for the world that will be watching as it’s the only game on at that time.

fightoffyour Posted December 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 20, 2023 Time for Emery to break another record - the Premier League 9 goal winning margin record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted December 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 20, 2023 Let's not get cocky We need to try and put this to bed as soon as possible and make the most of playing early to rest up as much as possible. To do that though we need to earn it and bring it straight out the gate. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I hope we score eight goals for the first time in a Premier League game, I have a feeling we're due a big win. But after having been on the run we've been on at Villa Park, it would feel like one of those 'typical' things, not just for us, but in football in general, if a team like Sheffield United of all teams were the ones to end our run, a team you would least expect to, we can't be complacement like Omar was in the Korean owned convience store before tragically having his life ended by Kenard of all people. As long as we go into the game with the same attitude as we did against Arsenal and Man City we should be okay, anything less, and we could make things difficult for ourselves, and risk being our own worst enemy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosnichs Muller corner Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 An early goal to settle any nerves, a second around half time then start resting one or two players from the hour mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 As a long suffering fan these are the type of games you usually dread. Playing at home with a lot at stake against a very poor team who will be happy to try to defend a 0-0. However with Emery I couldn't be more confident (and it helps that Sheffield United are so bad). 5-0 Villa. Diaby, Mcginniesta, Luiz, Tielemens and Oliver Watkins with the goals.

chrisp65 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Our goal difference is currently 4 or 5 goals down on those teams around us. Hopefully we could redress that with the right attitude and some top 3 ‘luck’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbull Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 My 54 years as a Villa fan tell me it'll be 0-0. If we do manage double figures then great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 We had to go to Spurs and win to get in the top 4 We had to host Man City and win to get in the top 3 Now we have to beat bottom of the table Sheff Utd at home to go top. Pretty confident tbf. 3-0. Watkins (2); Douglas Luiz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Hard to predict who will start this one until we here who is definitely out. If Pau isn't 100% he should be rested for United on boxing day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted December 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 20, 2023 Due to our recent record against them (pre Unai) I instinctively feel apprehensive about this fixture. Just want a win, don’t care the score. I’d take 1-0 and McGinn not booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
