LatestConfirmedIn Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Heskey in for Carew apart from that the same team. Looking to dominate this one. 3-1 Villa
hull_city Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 2-2 young and hesky for you bullard and altidore for us
Vojskovoda Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 2-2 young and hesky for you bullard and altidore for us What kind of performance will we expect from Kamil Zayatte next week?
hull_city Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 he will have agbonlahor in his back pocket
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Friedel Young Collins Cuellar Warnock Young Milner Reo-Coker Downing Heskey Agbonlahor. Think Heskey in the last couple weeks has really done enough to at least get a chance to start.
LatestConfirmedIn Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Earth to AVFC Pob - MON is not going to drop Petrov !
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Earth to AVFC Pob - MON is not going to drop Petrov ! Shame really. I don't mind if he starts, but then he's always nackered after 60 minutes and we never change the formation which means we get over-run and nor do we take off him after 60 minutes, so we just end up getting dominated. Argh.
wedge Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 We will take an early lead, sit back for the remainder of the game and be lucky to escape with a draw...

Argh. I agree completely, why Downing wasn't put on today to help out I will never know. I hope im wrong, but for the rest of this season...if Petrov is fit, he will start.
Chindie Posted November 28, 2009 VT Supporter Posted November 28, 2009 I think we'll punt in own goals all match just to really get people something to moan about. Or maybe not. Probably play fairly well as per and grab a goal that won't be pretty, defend a bit and maybe nick a second on the break to keep us solidly 5th.
Hanky Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 I'd drop Ash Young for this one if Downing is match fit.
KAZZAM Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Not the best time to be facing Hull they've seemed to have found a pocket of form as of late coinciding with the return of Jimmy Bullard.

Argh. I agree completely, why Downing wasn't put on today to help out I will never know. I hope im wrong, but for the rest of this season...if Petrov is fit, he will start. When we are on the back foot though, Petrov looks the one player with the composure to slow things down and hang on to the ball. If we had more players like that, we wouldn't have been battered so ard in the second half today. Milner on the other hand kept on hoofing it long where a little bit more composure would have been welcome. Anyway, looking forard to next week. I don't often get to go to Villa Park and this will be my thrid Villa game in 10 days (including the reserves).

Maybe but our movement off the ball upfront is shocking meaning if Petrov does keep the ball, it's only to a man who is in danger of losing the ball which will end up in a long punt forward. Had we brought someone on with more energy even Delph for example we might have closed them down as we did in the first half and they wouldn't of had so much possesion.
kurtsimonw Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 I thought they were the worst team in the league (bar maybe Wolves) coming into the season, but they've played pretty well lately to be fair to them. Not going to be easy, but at VP we should be beating them really.

Hanky Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Dwoning won't be fit, if he was I'd try: Friedel L.Young Cuellar Dunne Warnock Milner Petrov Reo-Coker Downing Carew Agbonlahor Subs: Guzan, Beye, Delph, A.Young, Heskey, Sidwell, Collins (if fit).
sir_gary_cahill Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 not a chance in hell of ashley being dropped, he's 1 of the best in europe don't you know?!
