Kwan Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Petrov and Hutton out means we'll have a little bit of a change in the side. Lichaj will probably fill in for Hutton, but what pairing do we go with in the middle? Gardner/Herd sounds good. I don't think little Barry will get in the side. There's always the horrible chance that Heskey ends up playing midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Think Emile is injured I'd go GG / Herd in CM I'd drop Albs and play BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Going to be a strange game, if McLeish tells the players to be conservative I'd hope they'd tell him to do one as they want to win it for Stan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Totally insignificant now, think we need to pull behind the team and forget all this mcleish out for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 With the shocking news that Stan is out I think our midfield will consist virtually of Academy players. AMc has hinted he'll go 4-4-2 tomorrow and I wonder whether we'll revert to the diamond formation we tried early in the season. My guesses ...............Given Lichaj.Cuellar.Collins.Warnock ................Herd Albrighton...........Gardner/Bannan ..............Ireland ......Weimmann.Gabby Christ knows who'll be on the bench? We're going to get tonked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted March 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted March 30, 2012 Really hope heskey doesn't play in the guise of us 'needing some experience'. The players are going to be so fired up for tomorrow now. Also there's a chance Mata may be rested by Chelsea which would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Team talk tomorrow is simple. Win it for Stan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacbuddies Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Win, lose or draw against Chelsea doesn't really matter any more. The entire 90 minutes should be dedicated to Stan and his name chanted loud and clear throughout the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 We don't really have a Petrov song do we Wonder who will be captain ? Heskey if fit ? Collins ? Given ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 No-one now, not even some on here can excuse the players for a lack of motivation in their play tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 If fit, I'd be tempted to give Heskey the armband He does have massive experience and I think he'd rise to the situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 If fit, I'd be tempted to give Heskey the armband He does have massive experience and I think he'd rise to the situationI really hope you're joking. Heskey shouldn't even be starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Gabby will captain the side tomorrow. I'm hoping they will all have an extra bit of fire in their bellies tomorrow though and put in the shift of their lives for their missing captain.

VillaGoMarching Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Heskey shouldn't be anywhere near the team, but given the lack of seniors i suspect he'll start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAndLoyal Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 This match is irrelevant now, couldn't care less what the score is. I'm going to support Stan the man and hopefully everyone going will sing for him for 90 minutes. He deserves nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
