Mr_Dogg Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 It'll be good to see the younger players get their chance but it's also a risk to play a team not entirely used to each other. Hopefully the likes of Sidwell will take the lead and should dominate against a team like Brighton. (All due respect to them of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I'm only going to see Delph, Delfouneso and Albrighton if I'm honest, so they best be starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozyFresh Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 MON"]We have one or two younger players around who did wonderfully well for us in pre-season against real top-quality opposition in the Peace Cup. They are desperate for a chance." That'll be Albrighton starting then. Yep Albrighton My money is still on Lowry, playing at left-back and Warnock rested. You heard it from me first! Though Clark and Lichaj are also likely. If it's true about Beye and the bid has been accepted, doubt we'll see him in the starting line-up.

Carlos_The_Villain Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I just hope for an easier ride against Brighton, knowing Villa they will make it hard for themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted January 23, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted January 23, 2010 Going down to this one with a mate who's never been to a match before. He's a Chelsea fan but I think he's adopted Villa as his second team now! Any ideas on attendance? I'm assuming it'll be between 20-25k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry'sboots Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I wouldn't normally miss a home game but just can't get excited about this game - even for a tenner. Personally, I am getting slightly fed up of MON's predictability and failure to try things when things are not working and a change is required. I can see this game being fairly turgid - I hope I am proved wrong! If Coker is unfit and he is going to rest Stan I can't begin to imagine what side he will put out as I don't see us having another CM'er that can play the DCM role?? Sidwell I suppose with Delph in front of him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are fed up with the predictability that has sen us lose only 2 of our last 14 games, beat Man U away, put 5 past Bolton and 6 past Blackburn and qualify for the Final of the CCup and 4th Round of FA cup, whilst staying in contention for the Top 4 ? Absolutely unbeleivable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidwell I suppose with Delph in front of him? Im a bit disapointed that injured carew has suddenly gone low prophile as the winter bites like last year. We need to rotate in this game and rest Gabby/Heskey, Petrov, & Milner and Reo is also injured. This is the difference between us & Arsenal & the other sky 4. They will rest key players in advance of tough midweek fixtures in prem. Beye should be in at R.Back. L.young. LB. Delph in. Sidwell. I know training injuries occur but christ big John has only played subs games since full start v liverpool game. I'm putting the cup final behind now as we need to realise we could get into a mini slump in Prem if Arsenal win on wednesday. 1 point in last 9. They are resting players at Stoke on Sunday. If we cant rotate against Brighton, the next round if we get through, may not be so easy depending on draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted January 23, 2010 Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2010 Every indication is that we will rotate and rotate heavily. I think there's a good chance Carew will start, I don't think any of that is big news. I'm not sure what you're saying there Vindiesel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quizme Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 If Carew, NRC, Dunne, Petrov, Héskey is injured/rested I´ll hope we will see something like this: Guzan Beye Collins Clark L Young Albrighton Sidwell Delph A. Young Agbonlahor Delfouneso I would rest Milner, Carlos and Downing and put them on the bench along with a few kids. Could be interesting seeing a Agbonlahor/Delfouneso pairing upfront....

Pilchard Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Wanted to go but four games in two weeks is just too much for effort and wallet. Anything that's a win will be good - I'm suprised we're not being mentioned in potential upsets - especially if the kids are given a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villadude Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 It won't be a piss take, games like these never are at VP. We'll still go through though IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 VILLA: Guzan; Luke Young, Beye, Collins, Warnock; Sidwell, Delph, Albrighton; Ashley Young, Downing, Delfouneso. Subs: Friedel, Milner, Agbonlahor, Davies, Petrov, Lowry, Clark. Brighton: Kuipers, McNulty, Elphick, Navarro, Forster, Murray, Dicker, Calderon, Crofts, Virgo, Bennett. Subs: Cox, Dickinson, McLeod, Hart, Carole, Hoyte, Brezovan. Interesting, very interesting. Beye at CB? Hope that works out ok. Ashley up front or 4-3-3 with Downing in the middle?
