im actually dreading this agme after the newcastle farce. the whole side needs to set the record straight

team

---------------------guzan---------------------

l young-----------dunne--------davies-----warnock

ashley young------ireland---------stan------downing

-----------carew-----------fonz---------------

we ahve to play a strong strong we cant afford to go out after the newcastle farce

[AVFC-Prideofbrum]

2 man midfield after Newcastle game, those two!?!?

Anyway for me, I think we should just go strongest team possible, bar Friedel maybe.

-----------Guzan

Young Dunne Collins Warnock

-------Petrov--Coker

Downing----Ireland------Young

-------------Agbonlahor---------

[kayarcee]

honestly, I think we could use the kids and be OK. Would like to see

----------Golden Guz-----------

Lichaj---Cuellar--Collins---Beye

Downing--NRC----Salifou--Bannan

------------Ireland------------------

-----------Gabby-------------------

EDIT: And, in fact, we SHOULD use this team, because the Everton match is much more important . Ireland and Gabby to play around 60 mins before making way for the Fonz and Sidwell, if available.

[matrim]

I thought Ireland couldn't play as we didn't sign him in time to register him for this round of the Europa

[VillaAndLoyal]

------------------------Guzan

-------Cuellar---Dunne---Collins---L.Young

----------------------Reo-Coker

--------------Petrov----------Bannan

--Albrighton--------------------------A.Young

-----------------------Gabby

That team would **** annihilate those Austrian clearing in the woods!

Drop Downing, drop Warnock, drop Carew and drop Friedel...all were **** woeful the other day (amongst 7 others, admittedly)

[MrDuck]

-------Cuellar---Dunne---Collins---L.Young

Yeah, I'd go with that defence. Young is just as good at left back as he is on the right, and Warnock has been shite since about xmas time.

[ChrisNichollsToe]

I would put the same eleven that surrendered to Newcastle out, though with NRC included and Ireland playing in his normal advanced role. The lads a good player, but he does not have Milners work ethic.

[Hanky]

-------Cuellar---Dunne---Collins---L.Young

Yeah, I'd go with that defence. Young is just as good at left back as he is on the right, and Warnock has been shite since about xmas time.

If Collins and Cuellar are fit enough then I would do that either Thursday or on Sunday.

[deeps]

I can't get myself excited for this game.

[El_Hierro]

Looking forward to this I really do. The players will come out firing on all sylinders and I think we're in for another 'West Ham performance', perhaps even with a bigger scoreline. Feeling unusually optimistic about this game.

-----------------Guzan-------------------

5-0.

Gabby 2, Ireland 2, Downing

**** it, I'm going to apply for the managers job

[R.I.C.O.]

I reckon we'll either smash this lot or go whimpering out. The players will be looking to get the utter humiliation out of their systems I hope, and we have 4 players back too.

3-0 to Villa.

Reckon the team will be Friedel, L Young, Collins, Cuellar, Warnock, Downing, Ireland, Petrov, Albrighton, A Young, Gabby.

[briny_ear]

Pinpoint prediction there!

I think we will draw and go out on penalties.

[briny_ear]

Good news that Gabby is fit and ready to play for the Rapid game BTW. I ohpe he gets a game - not sure Rapid's defence will be able to cope with his pace.
