Aston Villa (A) Match Thread

[peterthefox]

Let's just hope the armband makes Schmeichel less shit.

I doubt it.

[Cropwellfox]

no defender on the bench?

Guess with Upson not match fit there aren't any more in the prem squad

[Ric Flair]

James or Cambiasso can drop in at centre half anyway.

[Fez of Mahrez]

RdL may be ill rather than injured

Nah, he's always that pale.

[LCFC Rennie]

Happy with this team selection. Come on boys.

[Steven]

You'd think simpson was lahm if you read this

No Paul Breitner. :xmaswink:

[ealingfox]

Benteke to score 2 or more at 10s with Billy Hill....fill your boots boys

[Fez of Mahrez]

James or Cambiasso can drop in at centre half anyway.

Benteke v Cambiasso - now there's an aerial battle I'd have a wager on.

[NewquayFox]

After all the goings on this week i fancy us to nick a scrappy win.........

Come on City....

[lgfualol]

Nice to see the team not being changed now we're actually playing better. I was fearful we were going to have the diamond in today.

I just hope we can get something for Nigel

[lgfualol]

No defenders on the bench. Our squad depth ouch

[Crinklyfox]

Was will find out how fast Benteke can limp.

[ScouseFox]

konchesky centre half schlupp left back and either of moore or wasyl right back if we get any serious issues. not ideal.

[LCFC Rennie]

No defenders on the bench. Our squad depth ouch

Schlupp can move into defence if we get an injury.

 

Good to see Powell on the bench again, hope we hang onto him.

[Mark_from_USA]

Congratulations to @Aknockaert who's not in the squad today because of the birth of his baby boy!

 

[ousefox]

Their strike force does look strong

[whoareyaaa]

Got a good feeling about today the boys are going to be up for this one.

 

3-1 BLUE ARMY!

[Kasey Keller]

According to SSN Vardy bagged at hatrick against Manure ???????? WTF

[Al-aLondon-Foxile]

fair enough team selection, gotta assume rdl is injured. 

 

schlupp can be useful away from home if you ignore his inability to play football properly. 

 

knockaert nowhere again, so upsetting.

Knocky has just had a baby boy, so is on paternity leave.

[jmono84]

thought De laet played well against Liverpool and he gets dropped . Iam looking forward to see Simpson start for us because although he has played well Richie has been inconsistent. I hope we don't concede 2 or more goals again, if we do and NP insists playing 4-4-2 then I will be worried about where our next points will come from. I hope he proves me wrong and I was getting worried for no reason!!

 

Come on boys!!

7-3. Get in.

De Laet has an illness according to RL.

[ealingfox]

By 'baby boy' do they mean the infant-sized lump on Knocky's head following his latest fallout-related headbutting?

[kingfox]

Massive game for all defenders, time for Simpson to take his chance.

Can see this being a woeful 0-0.

[ScouseFox]

no wonder he hasn't played well for a few months
