wedge Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 We really do say it a lot, but this is an absolute must-win! Norwich will be no push-overs either they have played very well this season under Paul Lambert and have given the top sides a run for their money. However, if we actually practice defending set-pieces in training this week we should have too much for them going forward and being at home.

We need to take the game to Norwich blunt them with a couple of early goals. Bent to score two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wedge Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 I reckon we'll lose this I've got a strange feeling about this one. I can see us winning comfortably or them tearing us apart just as easily, incredibly difficult to predict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Come on Villa, let's be 'avin you! Herd, Petrov and Bannan/Delph/Jenas/Ireland in midfield for me please. NO HESKEY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although can Clark play right-back? I really don't like Hutton. Massive game, if we lose this we could be in the relegation zone come January 1.

flamingsombrero Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 We absolutely must get something here because with the exception of one maybe two fixtures the rest of 2011 scares the spine out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Well if we win that is good for us, but if we lose, that may mean McLeish's chances of getting sacked will go up exponentially. I want him gone. Been reading that McLeish is already on the hot seat. If we really want him gone the fans just need to show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want him gone. Been reading that McLeish is already on the hot seat. If we really want him gone the fans just need to show it. What have you been reading to suggest he's on the 'hot seat'??? I can't see the board sacking McLeish until we get relegated - he's their man, who they picked regardless of his previous premier league 'experience'. The fans couldn't convince the board not to sign him, they sure won't convince them to sack him. Going slightly off topic, it's a shame the General buggered off the boards, as it would be interesting to hear (although undoubtedly pro-club propaganda) what the club have to say about the start to the season, the drop in attendance and generally poor performances on the pitch.

jacketspuds Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 It's a sad state of affairs when we need Jermaine Jenas to improve our team but we really do. Fail to win this and we will be on the slippery slope down the league. Encouraging signs of CNZ at the weekend but McLeish will no doubt bang Heskey in midfield again and we will be average. Really fed up with this season already. I was really pleased when the board managed Houllier out, only to completely worsen the situation by hiring a man who got his last club relegated. Pedigree my ballbag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 We should just have enough to win but i'm seriously concerned about our defence. Would like to see Cuellar and Clark back in the centre but we all know thats not going to happen. If we lose with our run of fixtures coming up then we're in big trouble!

KHV Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 swap herd for delph and i think it's a very good side ??????????????????????????????????? swap Herd for Delph!!! why in gods name would you want to do that. Delph has been bloody awful all season, he can tackle, cant control the ball and cant pass. Delph should stay in the reserves or be loaned back to league 1 -----------------------------Given-------------------------------- Cuellar------------Dunne----------Clark--------------Warnock -----------------------------Herd------------------------------- --------------------Jenas------------Petrov---------------------- ----------------------------Ireland------------------------------- --------------------Bent-------------Agbonlahor---------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
