Title: Aston Villa v Burrrnleh. Pre Match Thread.
Post by: kippaxvilla2 on October 03, 2025, 01:36:27 PM

Sunday 2pm.  With tough games coming up after the break I think this is another must win and I think we will get it - 2-0.

Any win will do. 2-1, and then get the injured players back to full fitness for the tough games ahead.

3-1 we're looking much more like our old selves, Burnley are a bit ropey at the back but Jaidon Anthony is in the form of his life and will inevitably get one against us.

3-1 - Ollie x 2 and Rogers for us. Anyone who can kick a ball for them

We’ve turned the corner, found a bit of form, scored a few goals, confidence is high, rode the storms, only way is up

Unai sticks McGinn out on the wing again

Shortest pre-match thread ever. Doesn't bode well. 0-0.

No doubt we will somehow make this harder than it should be but should win. Important to get up that table asap.

Thought some of the players looked jaded in the latter stages of the game on Thursday night, so it might be the case of just getting a win by whatever means tomorrow. 

Win tomorrow and we'll be going into the international break with a bit of a bounce.

With Spurs Pool and Citeh  next, we need 3 points.

I’d settle for him not giving away one. He’s improved but nowhere near his best. Watkins to get a brace. 2-0

Let’s settle for the 3-0 then with the Watkins brace and the much needed Rogers one  I’d be happy with that

And there we have it, everything in the garden is rosy after 3 wins on the bounce then along come Burnley to spoil everything.

Nah, that was the old days although it was managing to draw against teams like this that disappointed so much last season.

There will be nerves, there always are but we'll win.

2-0

Trinity Road closed just after Sacred Heart School after what looks a pretty bad crash.  Car still not moved yet.

hopefully McGinn keeps a central role with Rogers left and Malen Right.

4-1 to Villa.

Hope you're right, JD. A clean sheet to go with our 4 goals would be ideal.

Martinez back
Digne back.

Malen gets a league start. Time to turn it on and show what you can do.

Plus nice to see Barkley on the bench
