Available Saturday afternoon.
-
Right come on you Villa boys.
-
Yep. Win is a must.
-
Guzan, Hutton, Collins, Dunne, Warnock; N’Zogbia, Petrov, Herd, Albrighton, Agbonlahor, Bent.
Looks like 4-4-2. Might be good for a rapid counter-attacking strategy, but we're relying on Petrov to play the outball like Barry used to, and I'm not sure he's got it in him anymore. Still, there's hope.
-
This is essentially a must win, so win Villa.
-
Guzan - Hutton, Collins, Dunne, Warnock - Albrighton, Petrov, Herd, N'Zogbia - Gabby, Bent.
Subs: Marshall, Cuellar, Ireland, Heskey, Weimann, Delfouneso
The team's not far off what I would have played, though I'd play Bannan not Albrighton. I reckon that side will struggle to keep the ball.
Bench extremely attacking too.
Over all, I'd have thought McLeish is trying to demonstrate that he is an attacking manager. I'd rather he coached the side to pass the ball properly than stick an almost ridiculous amount of attacking players in the 16. We could get caught out if we need to bolster the backline through injury.
-
Come on Villa.
-
It is a must win game for both teams. Very strong, attacking line up. Looking forward to the game now.
-
Who's this Cahill bloke?
BOLTON: Jaaskelainen, Robinson, Cahill, Tuncay, Knight, K Davies, M Davies, Klasnic, Eagles, Pratley, Boyata. Subs: Bogdan, Steinsson, Muamba, Petrov, Kakuta, O'Halloran, N'Gog.
14:09
Paul AVFC: VILLA: Guzan, Hutton, Collins, Dunne, Warnock; N’Zogbia, Petrov, Herd, Albrighton, Agbonlahor, Bent. Subs: Ireland, Marshall, Clark, Weimann, Delfouneso, Bannan, Heskey.
-
Fancy it'll be a thrilling 2-2 result.
-
Cuellar is not on the bench but Bannan is
Guzan - Hutton, Collins, Dunne, Warnock - Albrighton, Petrov, Herd, N'Zogbia - Gabby, Bent.
Subs: Marshall, Cuellar, Ireland, Heskey, Weimann, Delfouneso

-
Come on you Villa boys! Not convinced with Albrighton either, didn't do a great deal last week (who did?). Decent options from the bench though.
-
Sorry, you're right, I meant Bannan (hence the 'very attacking bench' comment!)
-
Plus Clark ..
-
the line up looks attacking as long as we dont go to the Collins hoof tatics .
-
It looks promising but then so did last weeks selection. Hopefully, they will be let of the leash as Bolton are poop and we should be able to at least get a draw and probably a win.
-
Delph not even on the bench? Is he injured?
Well set up to play on the break, but let's see if we can keep the bloody football. I'm not generally a fan of outright 442 with two wingers and two out and out fwds, though Gabby does now seem better able to drop deeper and link play than he used to be. I think it's probably right to play 2 up top, as Bent can only really play there if he's playing in a side that passes through midfield. He's not great if you play hoof ball.
-
Anyway Im off to work , got the bills to pay for . Good luck Villa , enjoy the game Villains ( I hope ) and Ill be back to catch the football first highlights round my GF.
-
Any feeds for the game?
-
Jesus, I've just heard Pat Murphy wiht his tongue so far up West Broms arse on 5Live he was tickling Woy's tonsils. Fair assessment of the Villa though maybe a touch too pro-McLeish.
-
Strangely looking forward to what will most likely be a turgid match. Surely can't play any worse than the man u/spurs games.... and if we do then hopefully it could lead to parting ways with AM.
-
Come on me Villa boys
-
We must NOT spend the entire game hoofing the ball. We'll win very few headers against their defence.
-
That's about as an attacking line up he could have used. If we play anything other than 4-4-2, it's a crime.
-
Disappointed that Clark continues to be frozen out.
And Tuncay has given us a few problems in the past, hopefully not so today.
-
liveonlinefooty.com streamed into my AppleTV and output directly to the telly for this one. Ace quality, let's hope the match is as good.
-
I've got money on Cahill to open the scoring. That's that threat covered.
-
Bent will like seeing Albrighton in the side anyway. Big game for him. Paul Robinson is utter dirge so he needs to get the better of him. He showed what he is capable of last season and hopefully this will be a day when he kicks back into gear.
Regardless of the personnel though, the philosophy of how we play is more important. If in doubt hoof it out must stop.
Dont think Petrov is able to play in a midfield 2 anymore. Also will be interesting to see Gabby and Bent up front together as both of them prefer playing up top alone or with a playmaker behind them.
That Bolton side is shocking.
-
I've just got this really horrible feeling again. I really hate watching us at the moment! I'm pretty tempted to just follow it on the BBC
-
Here's another (http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/96967/1/watch-bolton-wanderers-vs-aston-villa.html) stream
-
Come on you Villa boys!
-
Thanks.
-
how many have we taken today? looks like the one end is all villa.
-
how many have we taken today? looks like the one end is all villa.
The upper tier isn't in use, but the lower is pretty much full.
-
Here's another (http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/96967/1/watch-bolton-wanderers-vs-aston-villa.html) stream
Cheers.
-
Dunne and Collins should be banned from kicking it in the air.
-
Thanks for posting the stream
-
This Bolton team is there for the taking, they're horrible.
-
Commentator on my stream makes agood point. Bolton playing a really high line against us, something they've done for years now, regardless of the manager.
Really iffy against a side with pace.
-
We've started promisingly, they look terrible, but we need keep our nerve and keep the ball on the deck.
Like there. What the hell was the point of that from Guzan.
-
I repeat Dunne and Collins should not be allowed to kick it in the air.
-
They carved us open there.
-
We should charge Dunne and Collins a £1 every time they hit it long.
Would reduce the wagebill a treat.
-
Why oh why do we invite such pressure?
-
Bloody hell, we look flaky at the back.
-
We should charge Dunne and Collins a £1 every time they hit it long.
Would reduce the wagebill a treat.
Agreed I do actually think they are the root of our entire problem with possession football.
-
Hutton is actually doing alright.
-
Bloody hell Stan!!!!!!
-
N'Zog put that on a plate for Petrov, what a miss.
-
fuck me Stan
-
Should have scored, Stan. Good ball CNZ
-
Should have been 1-0
-
Wow Stan. Just wow.
That was a mistake by them, we can't miss opportunities so gifted to us.
-
Fucking hell, Hutton. Why does he lunge in like that?
-
At least Stan was in a good position and we created a chance. Always good to see him driving into the box. It's his natural game, for my money.
-
are we going put one of these away? I suppose the good thing is our movement looks a lot better than in recent weeks.
-
Good chance for Bent.
-
Bolton really are wretched.
-
We will pay for these.....
-
Darren Bent; goalscorer. :\
Three more chances and he might score one.
-
two good chances from Bent in a couple of minutes. We have to take advantage of this.
-
Well, at least we've found one other team that are definitely shitter than we are.
-
We've had two chances from the wingers being tenacious enough to force mistakes from the full backs. Stop those long balls and try and spread the ball a bit more quickly and accurately and we could create more here.
-
cmon guzan
-
Fucking hell that was close.
-
blimey. got lucky there. Brad needs to hold them.
-
Bolton really are wretched.
shocking. their full backs are even worse than ours
2 great chances spurned by us
good defending by dunne there. bad handling from guzan
-
Stop fucking hoofing it Dunne, for fucks sake.
-
THE. HOOFS. AREN'T. WORKING. STOP IT.
-
WTF was gabby doing there?
-
I'm not sure what Gabby was going there, he offside pretty much the entire time that ball needed to be crossed.
-
N'Zogbia is doing well today so far.
-
Pointing Hutton down the line instead of centreing it to him according to the pundit on this stream.
-
I wonder if McLeish is actually telling those oafs to do that or if they are doing it of their own accord.
Increasingly, my money is on the latter though I guess you cannot play passing football with Dullins in much the same way as you cannot play cricket with golf clubs.
-
We are absolutely destroying them out wide. Need to keep getting it to Nzogbia and Albrighton
-
MARCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
YES!
-
Get in there.
-
goalalbrighton
-
Yessss
-

I want rid of them both, get Clark in at least. See Herd there, an easier ball was forward but it goes back to Dunne.
-
Nice one Marc! About time.
-
Get in.
-
Get in!
-
About time!
-
Get in Marc!
-
Come on!! Super Marc back to form
-
Delighted for Super Marc!
-
We have a goal :)
-
Lovely, lovely goal. So unlike us this season, we play the ball around nice and short, lovely ball by Herd, Gabby works it very nicely, a good run by Albrighton and it's a proper team goal. Take note, Eck: THAT is how to play football, and see the results!
-
Great goal, very open game so far.
-
CNZ is looking very sharp today
bit like swansea last time out, this lot arent there to be beaten, ,they are there to be hockeyed.
well done lads. gabby and marc. delighted for the kid.
-
CMON!!
-
See you pass the ball around nicely and it creates chances, it's not hard. If we get the hoof merchants out of our side, we could be ok.
-
Bolton are terrible but we are looking quite decent today
-
Dunne stop fucking hoofing it.
-
marcs taking his chance
-
N'Zog and Albrighton looking good.
-
Best performance of the season from little Marc and big Charles.
-
N'Zogbia and Albrighton look decent...this could be the start of something good for us.
-
Dunne stop fucking hoofing it.
It's amazing isn't it. We look good when we pass it and terrible when we hoof it, and yet the two centre backs and keeper continually hoof it anyway. Mysterious. Anyway, we're winning deservedly, we have to make this count!
-
It's great to see our two wingers playing so well today. They have been disappointing up to now.
-
The villa fans are in good voice
-
Stan!!!!!!!!!!
-
SUPER STAN!
-
fuck me get in STAN
-
Get in Stan, and again from a nice passing move.
-
petrov 2-0
cahill og
-
N'Zogbia should play on the left every week.
GET IN STAN!!!!!
-
Woo-hoo!
-
More calm passing, worked the space and a nice touch by Agent Cahill!
-
Fuck me, Bolton are so utterly shit.
Good confidence booster for us, this. CNZ and MA doing very well.
-
See you pass the ball around nicely and it creates chances, it's not hard. If we get the hoof merchants out of our side, we could be ok.
Yes passing usually works
-
Get in.That was a great passing move, see we can do it.
-
Bugger me sideways. This is more like it.
-
As I've said we are actually passing it and look so so much better. That is the way we have to play.
-
Well done Brad. That was never handball.
-
great save from Brad
-
Gabby having a great game.
-
This is good stuff. Our best performance of the season. Bolton are not all that but if we can use that to draw confidence and show the manager how we can play if we think positively it will increase our hopes of picking up some more points.
-
Wow..what on earth is going on?
2-0..excellent
-
Bolton are absolutely dreadful.
-
good job lads. Let's keep this up now.
-
we are playing great stuff. 2-0 doesnt flatter us at all.
-
We won't play a worse team than this all season, Bolton are horrendous.
Need to fill our boots here and gain some confidence from the result and performance. Good to see MA and CNZ doing so well.
-
Nzog , MA and Gabby all very good .
great passing at times should be 4-0
-
Push on in the second half lads
-
Bolton are absolutely dreadful.
That's a change for a start..we must be less dreadful then.. petrov and albrighton..great. let's keep it together now!
-
I know they're shit, but from the first whistle we've been so much more positive and it's great to see.
Keep it up.
-
We look much better with some balance in the side. 8 shots on target so far. Without getting carried away Bolton look very poor.
-
So, so, so much better. Mitigated of course by the fact that Bolton are absolutely abominable (no team has ever deserved to be booed off at half-time quite so much), but you can only beat what's in front of you and we're taking full advantage. If only we'd stop bloody hoofing it, we might have even more joy!
-
Well Bolton are horrible, but it is very plain to see that passing football is the way forward. When we play it we actually look good.
-
From what i could see on my stream, best half of the season so far, excellent stuff.
-
Same again second half please Villa
-
Christmas has come early - terrific absolutely terrific ;)
Albrighton is back!
-
This team would have spanked Manure last week ;)
-
We should be leading by 5 goals i'm disappointed ;)
-
Phil Dowd is still trying his best though isn't he?...
-
Let's not the 2nd half wobbles now!! Come on the Lads!
-
I love 6 pointers ;)
-
Much, much better. Let's not get too excited - it's not over yet and Bolton look horrendous. But we're looking bright aren't we?
N'Zogbia looking bright if his final touch / ball is still poor. Albrighton looking good too as is Gabby. Bent still doesn't really look at the races.
Herd is doing quite well, though I still think he gives the ball away a fair bit. I also think Warnock is doing well as is Dunne.
Nervous about Guzan still. I reckon he's got another mistake in him today.
-
I mean wow, they're seriously shit. How on earth was Stan allowed to let the ball roll across his body like that? We must take full advantage, this could be a goal-difference booster if we do it right.
-
- terrific absolutely terrific ;)
Cheers MON
-

I will absolutely 100% just take the 3 points and be very happy!
-
For me its not about the opposition its about our mentality and this has been how we wanted our team to start against spurs, Swansea, man utd despite what the score may be.
-
We look much much better balanced playing 442.
Stans had a great game (apart from his terrible miss) shows how important he is to us still.
-
even warnock is playing well. dunne has been excellent defensively but is taking too much responsibility on the ball. Just pass it to one of the midfielders. It is their job to create. Bent is hopeless at holding the ball up so its fairly pointless hitting it long to him (in his general direction).
petrov is maybe on a hefty wedge every week but no way should he be allowed leave in jan.
only negative has been bent really. he has been really poor. His movement is dire. hernandez plays a similar role at united but offers so much more. bent is only getting in gabby's way at the moment.
-
In an attempt to change our luck I decided to stay away from streams, radio and here apart from pre kick-off and HT. And stick to watching darts on ITV4 with just an occasional flick onto Final Score to see how we're doing. And it seems to be working! You may thank me at FT when I return and we have won 5-0!
Come on you Villa boys!!!!
-
I know Bolton are dire, but give our lads some credit. I think our overall play has really stifled Bolton, and having proper width is helping a lot. N'Zogbia looks a different player, and the goal from Marco will do him so much good. Yes, Bolton are mince but I think we've contributed to that. Let's get an early 3rd in the 2nd half and enjoy a game for once. It will give the lads a lot of confidence.
-
Hi peeps. Missed first half as decorating lounge but turned BRMB at 3.30 to hear Ron Toss going mental as Albrighton scored then even more apopleptic when Stan scored. By all accounts we could/should be 4 up so presume we're playing well?
Decent link anyone?
-
- terrific absolutely terrific ;)
Cheers MON
I bet he comes out with it if they win tomorrow.
-
confidence booster is what we need .
Id prefer going into games against Arse and 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' , winning this and playing well , instead of losing it , we could nick 2 points now ;)
-
- terrific absolutely terrific ;)
Cheers MON
I bet he comes out with it if they win tomorrow.
Lets hope Rovers spoil the party
-
Very encouraging, but the next goal is crucial. Bolton get it and suddenly we'll be on the backfoot. Keep calm and getting the ball to Marc and Chaz and we can continue to run riot.
Great to see Warnock in such advanced (even central at times!) positions too.
-
My 1st half stream has gone. Anyone help out with another please?

Agree about Warnock but wouldn't say Bent's been that bad. Always there or thereabouts in the box, decent shot from the Albrighton pull back and almost flicked Gabby's cross in before it reached Albrighton and helped make space for the run and finish. Fancy him to score second half

Attack, attack, don't sit back!
-
Stream has been taken down - any more open ?
-
There goes the Collins hoof, just give it to someone better than you.
-
Working fine (http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/96967/1/watch-bolton-wanderers-vs-aston-villa.html#)
-
Come on Boys. We should be out and out favs from here on in.
-
Fucking hell we haven't started great here.
-
Just tuned in. Holy cow. Well done the lads so far.
-
desperate defending. You knew they'd come at us at the start of the half. Need to ride this and grab our chance when it comes to finish the game off.
-
Chris Herd - young player of the season?
-
brilliant work on the right by albrighton there.
-
We just need to keep our heads now. They're bound to have a decent period at some point during the match.
Just keep our heads and ride it out.
-
Shit.
-
FFS Vilal why why why
-
Blues
-
FFS Villa. That's what we don't need to be doing.
-
Fucking horrendous defending.
-
for fucks sake
-
Well, that's a rubbish goal to concede and to score.
-
we've been on the edge at the back, so thats no suprise
-
Here we go.
-
Here we go.
-
awful corner gives it him back
-
3-2 my prediction. Defence is fuking hopeless.
-
should have been 3 1
-
Darren Bent how many chances!!
-
I don't understand why those pair of incompetent hoofers keep getting picked. They seem to cost us at least a goal a game.
-
Fuck me, Bent!
-
How the fuck did Bent miss tha
-
fuck me Darren. fuck me
-
Fucking hell Bent.
-
Bent for fucks sake.
-
how the fuck did he miss that, even Heskey would have put that away
-
ah fucks sake Bent. That is what you are there for.
-
I can't bear it
Bent??????
-
Bent has had more chances today but, for me, he has been poor on all of them.
-
no good blaming not creating today . hes had his chances
-
I don't understand why those pair of incompetent hoofers keep getting picked. They seem to cost us at least a goal a game.
obvious you arent watching the game.
petrov was at fault.
dunne has been excellent today and collins has been pretty solid.
-
That was a bad miss by Bent. We need another goal to give us some breathing space. Come on lads sort it out.
-
hang on..get another..wake up; smell the crowd!!
-
We should have had 4 or 5 already. Get the next goal and we win this.
-
Fucking hell, Villa.
-
poor header by warnock
-
We have been a lot worse this half, we need to get possession again.
-
Our set pieces are consistantly desperate.
-
that familiar feeling is returning again.
-
its only a matter of time till they score, because we are giving them chance after chance
-
need to give the ball to nzog . get him in the game again
-
Ireland or Bannan for Bent?
-
how the fuck did he miss that, even Heskey would have put that away
Come on, there's no need for that!
-
Gaps appearing at the back which is worrying.
-
They do look like scoring now. Need a goal
Our passing has gone to shit though and our centre backs look a little isolated agaisnt their front 2
-
See as soon as we start to forget the passing principles we descend into a rabble.
-
We're treating the ball as if it's radioactive again, and consequently we've lost our grip on the game.
-
Gaps appearing at the back which is worrying.
Hutton's positioning isnt helping matters. Petrov running out of puff probably a bit too.
CNZ hasnt been in the game second half.
-
Fortunately, Bolton are so awful at the back, we're still in with a shout of a third here.
-
Are the black armbands for Gary Speed still?
-
They're getting closer. We need another goal
-
Bloody wake up Villa
-
Are the black armbands for Gary Speed still?
It's Bolton's first match since it happened, by all accounts. Or first home match.
-
The firstrowsports.tv is down...any alternatives?
-
they are first to every ball right now. Somebody has to get a grip.
-
We have lost it completely here at the moment.
-
Is this my fault? Should I go back to decorating the lounge?
-
petrov looking tired now
-
Id definitely take Bent off. He has been pointless today.
In saying that he will probably tap in the 3rd in a few minutes
-
http://www.realtvsport.com/channel-4.php
-
Clark on for Petrov for me. He looks gone.
-
Id definitely take Bent off. He has been pointless today.
In saying that he will probably tap in the 3rd in a few minutes
I wouldn't. He's getting into the right positions. He's the kind of player that can finish the game with 2 when he should have gotten 7

Yup.
-
Klasnic spending an awful lot of time on the deck today.
-
oh come that was not a corner? Bent is rubbish at that sort of play
-
If he took Bent off he'd bring Heskey on and we'd be back to hoof-flick-chase football
-
Are the black armbands for Gary Speed still?
It's Bolton's first match since it happened, by all accounts. Or first home match.
Thanks Paulie, that makes sense.
-
Dear Lord McGrath,
Can we please score from a corner.
Your loyal fan always, TV
-
there will about 10 mins of injury time today
-
Lot of stoppage time
-
loads of stoppage time. thats all we need
-
Lot of stoppage time
I was just thinking that.
I bet I can guess what happens.
-

-
Lot of stoppage time
I was just thinking that.
I bet I can guess what happens.
we score?
-
Bolton haven't drawn yet this season, we have seven of them. Couple that with the huge amount of injury time to be added and you have that sinking feeling.
-
I spy with my little eye
Something beginning with "H"
-
Here comes the Heskey. Good lord
-
heskey on for bent
-
Heskey on for Bent.
-
What did I say about 2 minutes ago?
-
Got to keep hold of the ball petrov attempting lofted through balls every chance we get, just giving the ball back to them. Bring on bannan for nzog. Oh. Heskey. Groan
-
Immediately Collins hoofs it long, for fucks sake.
-
Good subbing for a change. Right move to take Bent off
-
ha ha, Emile.
-
What did I say about 2 minutes ago?
you are Alex McLeish and I claim my tenner
-
Tumbling fucking bear
-
heskey first touch tumble
-
This isn't a bad way to use Heskey, to hold the ball up while we defend a lead. It's sitll not inspiring to see him walking on to the pitch though...And he's already fell over, ffs.
-
Heskey for Bent. Will they ever learn.
-
Fucking HOOOOOOF
-
Now Dunne hoofs it, for fucks sake.
-
Heskey 'Midfield general' then? err?
-
I'm no Mystic Meg but here's what will happen. 5 mins of injury time and a last-kick equaliser for them. We've been here a million times before.
-
4-2 Norwich ve Newcastle. They look quite good at home. Also, as expected Newcastle's defensive injuries beginning to take their toll
-
Gabby to do it for me..come on!!
-
4-2 Norwich ve Newcastle. They look quite good at home. Also, as expected Newcastle's defensive injuries beginning to take their toll
Down to ten men as well, mind.
-
Apparently our form so far this season in terms of win:loss:draw ratio is exactly the same as the Blues this time last year. We're doomed.
-
We;ve really lost our way and keep giving it away.
I feel almost certain Bolton will score . . .
What were Herd and Petrov up to theere?
-
Dunne and Collins for fucks sake stop fucking hoofing it.
-
Bloody hell hooftown in residence.
-
I wish we would play it from back rather than ....
-
No way..we're gonna win this!!
-
Hoooooooooooofffff.
-
4-2 Norwich ve Newcastle. They look quite good at home. Also, as expected Newcastle's defensive injuries beginning to take their toll

fair point
-
We just need to keep the fucking ball. It's not that diffuclt against a team this shit, but we keep hoofing it 50 yards up field and giving it back to them.
Brainless.
-
We really shouldn't be making such a hard job of beating the bottom team in the league.
-

Exactly. Every chuffing game
-
Who the hell told Collins and Dunne they have Berkamps passing ability.

We just need to keep the fucking ball. It's not that diffuclt against a team this shit, but we keep hoofing it 50 yards up field and giving it back to them.
Brainless.
In the Premier League, against whichever opposition you play, if you give the ball back to them on a consistent basis it's going to hurt you. We never, ever learn that.

Agreed, I thought the whole point of bringing HEskey on was to hold up the ball and help us keep posession. Apparently not.

Please please hold out Villa. I cannot stand another week of crying .........

once again shocking 'safety first' shit. We should've come out in the 2nd half and kept the ball for 10mins, taken them out of thwe game and then gone on for a big win. Instead we've done the same thing we've done all season under mcliesh and gone ultra defensive, just hoofing it away.
Even if we do win this it's yet another example of why we need to get a better manager who's willing to be positive.

i think it's aimed more at there being a larger chance of one of our hoofs hitting one of our own players.

Thank God they are awful.

Hold on to the fucking ball, those two clowns at the back should be fined.

lost my stream with a few minutes to go. Might be for the best.
-
We won't hold out. We never do
-
What's frustrating is theyve shown they can do it in the first half. When was the last time we put in a full match worth of a decent performance?
-
We have forgotten how to pass the bloody ball.
