Title: Aston Villa V Maccabi Tel-Aviv Pre Match
Post by: olaftab on November 02, 2025, 05:39:48 PM
What: Europa League match day 4
When: 6 November 2025 Kick off 20:00
Where: Villa Park, Aston.

So here we go and welcome Maccabi Tel-Aviv to Villa Park. Let's hope the night is all about football. MTA are currently second in the IPL and so far unbeaten after 8 games with a huge goal difference. However I am not sure where the rank in the bigger world of football.

Well they haven't won in the Europa this season so they need the three points more then we do.

Excellent formatting! I vote you to start all pre-match threads on a five year deal til the winter transfer window 2030/31 if you're amenable to the responsibility.

Easy home win. I doubt the game will be the main talking point afterwards.

Hmmm. Interesting first post.

Don't worry mate. Continue hanging the flags as all is ok and the match will continue.

The frustration of Saturday is now replaced by the frustration of Thursday, while the former related to our performance on the pitch the latter is all about matters off it. It threatened to be worse but there is still an uneasy air, which will hopefully transpire as nothing to worry about.

A win is needed after the Eagles nonsense and perhaps a goal for Watkins in a game that will hopefully pass by with little incident both on and off the field.

2-0

There have been around two thousand posts on here on the topic over the last couple of months, across four or five different threads. Yes, I've seen it.

Just strikes me as a strange time and subject to make your forum debut with, is all.

I hadn't seen any videos by any fake solicitor but I also don't think 300000 muslims are also going to be protesting outside Villa Park.

Actually, it'd be good if this thread could just be about the actual game.  There's loads of other places (like 'X') to talk about the things surrounding it that have jack shit to do with the Villa.  And yes, a first post about this (whatever this is) is odd.

Agreed.

Bizot
Cash
Lindelof
Pau
Maatsen

Bogarde
Onana
Elliott (as if)

Malen
Guessand
Sancho

Something like that. McGinn / Rogers / Kamara / Watkins to come on if necessary.

Do we have a swinkels or someone from the u21 for defensive cover?
Title: Re: Aston Villa V Maccabi Tel-Aviv Pre Match
Post by: Drummond on November 03, 2025, 04:14:50 PM
                  Bizot

Konsa Lindelof Torres Maatsen

         Barkley    Bogarde

Sancho       Rogers         Broggio
                 Malen

Swinkels is down in Exeter. Presumably some combination of Digne / Kamara / Bogarde until Mings is back?
Title: Re: Aston Villa V Maccabi Tel-Aviv Pre Match
Post by: Somniloquism on November 03, 2025, 04:21:51 PM
Jimoh could be in as well for left wing, although both him and Broggio are potentially in the U18 Euros as well.

Wogers to open the scoring.

Swinkels on loan, may have Mosquera though.

With the last Europa game still fresh in teh memory, I think I'd go as strong as poss from the start and try and get this one sorted.

                  Bizot

Konsa Lindelof Torres Maatsen

         Barkley    Bogarde

Sancho       Rogers         Broggio
                 Malen

Think we need to give Lindelof a go at LCB with Mings out. Torres gets injured and we have a real problem in that position. Maybe even put in Konsa next to him.

RB is a big problem, if Cash got injured we are in big trouble. But I'd start him, give him 60 mins or so and hopefully the result is in the bag by then.

Very attacking team Id go for, similar to Burnley.

Bizot
Cash, Konsa, Lindelof, Maatsen
Bogarde, Barkley
Elliot, Sancho
Malen, Watkins

One of McGinn/Rogers will definitely start, mind!

Hopefully the night just goes without too much carry on and Villa take a regulation 2-0 win, that'll do.
