TheSufferingVilla Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I wonder if MON had picked a weaker side and we lost this would there be similar outrage to the Moscow affair? Damned if you do damned if you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 depressing side but come on Villa. Depressing in that it's one player off our best team? more depressed that there weren't more changes than I'd personally hoped for, like Luke Young at right back, Delph in the middle etc and possibly Delfouneso starting. Obviously it's near full strength - although I accept my post hardly made that clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSufferingVilla Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Yeah don't worry, should get plenty of crosses in with Cuellar constantly overlapping and getting in crosses down the right..... Yeah cause in 2 seasons we have scored how many goals from Luke Young crosses???? I imagine it's 1 less than the goal we recently scored from a Cuellar cross.

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I wonder if MON had picked a weaker side and we lost this would there be similar outrage to the Moscow affair? Damned if you do damned if you... A weaker side? what asking Young, Delfouneso to play over Collins and Carew. I'd hardly call that getting weaker, probably stronger!! Also, I never get that. Damned if you do, damned if you don't...because if people on here said weaken the team and he did then O'Neill and the fans who wanted a weaken team were wrong. I doubt the same people then would moan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV82 Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 DELFOUNESO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 7, 2010 Moderator Share Posted March 7, 2010 Hmm. I think if Gabby is carrying a knock then it should be a one of each strike force, so either Delfouneso and Carew or Delfouneso and Heskey. Heskey and Carew isn't a combination that's ever impressed me a great deal. We'll see some hoof and a lot will rely on Milner. Villa to win 3-1 with Delfouneso to score our second 10 minutes from time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least his crosses reach the middle instead of balooning 20 yards over the bar every 1/2 times he does actually get a cross in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyClarke Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Lets just hope that one of the Reading centre halves kicks Heskey with all the power of a newborn inside 10 minutes, that should be enough to see him carried off on a stretcher. Seriously though, MON knows better than any of us but how the **** is Heskey and Carew a good idea? On paper it makes no sense, I wait to be proved otherwise but I can see that pair snoozing their way through the afternoon and constantly giving the ball away because neither can actually be arsed to move.

OutByEaster? Posted March 7, 2010 Moderator Share Posted March 7, 2010 Heskey will drop back to 20 yards outside the box so that he can win the ball, retain possession and give it a midfielder. The problem then is that the midfielder will launch it forty yards to Carew who will nod it down for the fella that is thirty yards away helping us retain possession.

Guest Ricardomeister Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Agree with much of the comments. I am very disappointed to see Carlos at right back again..I would move him to cb and drop Collins as I feel really sorry for Luke who has done nothing wrong. The thought of Heskey and Carew up front does not inspire confidence but I guess we will have to wait and see what reaction the players give today. We should still be able to win this even though Gabby will be a big miss imo, although at least he is ill, not injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoD Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Carew and Heskey up front looks like we'll be playing exciting football tonight. Lets hope Fonz gets a decent run out tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Luke Young must be kicking himself, after his Wembley performance I really don't see how Cuellar can start the game. I also don't think Carew and Heskey will work, I would rather play 4-5-1 or put Delfouneso up there... But we will see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommo Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I think we could be in big trouble. That's possibly the most disastrous team selection I could have imagined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shambles Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 In MON's defence, I would say he's expecting a typical division 2 type game. Lots of physicality and the ball in the air, which is why he's gone with 2 big guys up front and Cuellar at RB. Would still rather have seen Young at RB and the Fonz up front myself, though.
