Aston Villa vs West Ham pre-match thread

[Drummond]

Must win if we gave any ambition for CL next season.
If not mid table mediocrity beckons.

Wouldn't life be easy if life was that binary.

They'll have one eye on Wednesday, as will most fans. We've lost both league games after the last two CL away games, so really need to be on the ball today to avoid a third.

Personally, I think we'll come unstuck today, with a dour 0-0/0-1 result.

*Still amazed this has been selected for telly.

Are we expecting Buendia to be out with a "little injury"?

I thought the same, I guess it depends on whether the talk of a move has any substance.

He’s signing a 1 year extension apparently.

Good news.

Was thinking of the late Jlloyd Samuel RIP, who is another player who also had links to both clubs albeit I think he only played for them at youth levels .

It would and sometimes it is.Binary not easy.

Front 3 of Watkins wide left, Malen wide right and Duran down the middle would scare the crap out of them I reckon.

Very late in the day but, my brother is not feeling well so I have a spare ticket. Good seat, £40 if anyone is interested. Please pm me.

[Goldenballs]

1-2

We start in relative control, they score with their first shot on target. We get one back in the first half, but concede another shitter at the start of the second half. They defend like beavers and we can't get through.

[N'ZMAV]

1-0 Win. Mings winner.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

West Ham have one recognised centre half, no forward except Danny Ings up front, we need to take advantage and build up our goal difference.

4-0 Villa

EDIT: Potter not a fan of Ings it would appear.
