Daweii Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I'm gonna be the beacon of optimism in this thread.. I don't care if I'm wrong I just don't want to be negative. Aston Villa 3 - 0 Man City Bent, Agbonlahor x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 1-2 Villa. Arsenal-esque performance from last season, Bent with both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VamosMiAstonVilla Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 From his press conference it sounds like we are going to play a deep 4-4-2, Bannan won't be playing either. Heskey in one assumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Had a few long shot accys including us. Last time I had big money riding on us we beat Arsenal away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmitageBlue Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Mancunian Way closed until 3.30pm today for those Villa fans travelling to Manchester today. Best route probably M60 get off at Ashton under Lyme. Leave at least 30 mins earlier than usual though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBGB Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Not sure what kind of loss it will be - an unlucky, last-minute one; the run-of-the mill 2-goal margin variety; or an utter stuffing - but a loss it will be. Anything other would be remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 One of those matches.. I would understand if we went all negative, parked the bus and man marked frustrating them in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Aston Villa 3 - 0 Man City Mancini said something about 2 games in 4 days being too much. Hopefully he'll rest a few but their squad is so strong. Getting my hopes up that Citeh are off form today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I dont expect a result today. What I do expect though is : fight, passion and committment. If we just roll over as we did last year, I will be very angry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Not sure its been mentioned. Aguero out, obviously no Tevez, Silva may be rested. True test of our ability this one utv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 The ref is 32 year old Anthony Taylor from Manchester. I'd like to think he's a Manyoo fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted October 15, 2011 Moderator Share Posted October 15, 2011 Expecting the worst, hoping for the best, will take hat comes. The good news for us today is that there's no real pressure on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtelower Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I havent read the 8 pages, but I doubt there are many different to what I'm gonna say. We all know, in fact , the other 19 teams know, if you get anything from the Etihad, its a whopping great big bonus. I expect to lose, I expect to lose about 3-0 - but we won't be the only ones, and as Spurs found, there will be a lot more teams with bigger ambitions than us put to the sword this season by City. 3-0 loss, unbeaten run over, but, it wont be the end of the world. Andything more, I will be ecstatic ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I think I'd be happy enough with less than a three goal deficit tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 VILLA: Given, Hutton, Dunne, Clark, Warnock; Delph, Petrov, Ireland, Heskey, Agbonlahor, Bent. #avfc Subs: Cuellar, Herd, Albrighton, Guzan, N’Zogbia, Bannan, Weimann. #avfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Time for Delph to put in a decent performance, or he will lose his place to Bannan or Jenas. This has the same feel about it as the side Houllier put out in the FA Cup there last year. Oh ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 FFS, Ireland & Hutton selected ! WTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
