Ponky Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I suspect Cuellar may sit this one out for Beye or Luke Young to provide a bit more attack from out wide if he decides to start with Carew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condimentalist Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I'd go with the same team as against sha, but give Delph a go in midfield in place of Sidwell. And Young in for Cuellar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator TrentVilla Posted September 16, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2009 I think the back four will be Young Cuellar Dunne Warnock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator TrentVilla Posted September 16, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2009 you can't drop collins after that performance! Sadly being a mod doesn't allow me to pick the team I'm not saying he should be dropped, I'm saying I think that is the side that will be picked.

Turamber Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Looking forward to this, feels like ages since I've been to VP as I was on holiday during the Fulham game. Please, please, please no booing and lets break our Portsmouth hoodoo! 1-0 or 10-0 I don't care, I want a win!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark8691 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Got a feeling we'll play 4-4-2 and see Heskey back. Just a feeling, could be totally wrong of course. But Portsmouth are struggling and MON probably won't want to keep his old friend benched for long. Anyway, should win this one with whichever formation hopefully..

NormandyVillan Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I don't want to jinx this, and I'm not assuming this match is going to be easy, but I'll be looking forward to seeing the League table this weekend if we can beat Portsmouth. With Liverpool not playing until early evening, and the current top four not playing until Sunday, by 5 o'clock on Saturday: A 1-0 win will put us 5th A 3-0 win will put us 3rd A 5-0 win will put us equal 2nd with Man Utd A 6-0 win will put us 2nd (OK, not very likely I suppose...). After Sunday's matches, in which the current top four play each other, there is a chance that ANY win against Portsmouth could leave us in the top four (or even as high as third). We would also have a game in hand on all the other teams at the top except Man City. Yes, I know the League table doesn't mean much at this stage, but it would still be nice to be up there. So let's hope the lads do the business again this weekend. Another scrappy 1-0 win would do for me. Any extra goals (and places gained) would be a nice bonus. Prediction: I'll go for Villa 0 Portsmouth 3 :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Just ordered my tickets. We really should give these lot a spanking, they're not much good at the moment. I think we will beat them by 2 clear goals at least. A draw would be a terrible result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undesirable Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Looks like it will be a three man midfield of Petrov, Sidders and Delph then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienvillan Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 At the moment a home game against Portsmouth must be the safest way to test if 4-4-2 from current squad is good enough to win games. Then again, if Portsmouth score the first goal it could be struggle. But Portsmouth must also be the safest way to test if we can turn 0-1 to 2-1. Test or not, opposite side to score the first goal will happen again some time. 4-5-1 is probably the safest way to avoid that so it's interesting to see what MON decides. Wish list: 1. Win! 2. Win big! 3. To witness this: MON: "When we start to really open up, going forward we are an absolute dream to watch." 4. 4-4-2 5. If 4-5-1, to see Sidwell dribble. 6. To see scoring opportunities created by other players than just AY 7. To see MON jumping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 We could go 4-4-2 and play the team that finished the SHA game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VT Supporter HongKongVillan Posted September 18, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2009 Bad feeling about this, Pompy on zero point, teams like to start scoring their 1st point against us. Gut feeling 1-1, brain says 2-0 to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
