Brentford vs Aston Villa pre match thread - Jan 2nd 2022

[clash city rocker]

4-4

You've got to put a tenner on that now. Because if you don't, and...

On betfair its 500/1

That's me (temporarily) a quid lighter.
Superstitious day all round in our house, I've just been deterred from putting a wash on on this particular day thanks to learning I shouldn't tempt death upon the household.

Bloody hell wish I had read this earlier.

[Bobby Boy]

1-1.

Toney (pen) for them. Watkins for us.

[Risso]

I think we'll batter them. 3-0.

[DrGonzo]

2-1  done

[JUAN PABLO]

3 0 villa

I'll revise my predicted team to;

Martinez

Cash
Konsa
Hause
Targett

Dougie
Sanson
McGinn

Ramsey
Buendia

Watkins

Key is to swamp their back 3 and midfield 3 when out of possession to ensure their full backs don't get into it.

[SoccerHQ]

Yeah I'd keep Sanson in aswell. These sorts of teams always play with energy so need as much mobility as possible from middle trio.

Frustrating looking at the table. Felt after Norwich we had a real chance to really kick on but instead our two winnable games over xmas got called off and we played and lost the hardest one.

Would take a point.

[UK Redsox]

Even though Villa don’t really do draws this season, I’m going 1-1.

Mr Shin is going for a Villa win which, if it happens, will see him pull well clear in our ongoing predictions contest.

[martin o`who??]

No Tyrone so it'll be interesting to see how we deal with Toney - if he scores and does that fucking Zulu shit again I really do think he has no excuse this time - "Didn't know what it meant" - my fucking arse he didn't.
