Swansea City v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

Pick a number between 2 and 6 for them.  With us not scoring, naturally.

I just laughed out loud then, despite myself.

[onje_villa]

I'm not making any predictions.

I just hope we, somehow, keep a clean sheet.

An act of God? Lightning? Bricking up the goal? All worth a go in my book.

Team News for the Swansea Game:-
Guzan, Dunne, Cahill, Ridgewell, K Walker, Milner, Barry, Petrov, Routledge, A Young, Benteke
Bench: Collins, Friedel, Maloney, Cuella, Abonlahor

Then I woke up........!

Lerner - what have you done?

You dreamt about Ridgewell?

[Nirog72]

3-0 win, David Villa hattrick.

Lescott and Capoue make debuts.

[onje_villa]

We have to score first, I think first step of our rehabilitation is a closely fought loss, maybe a 3-2 though I hope for better.
Another pasting and I dread to think what the reaction will be.
I don't think Lambert will survive an infinite number of beatings.
I hope like Ads that things will start to pick up, we're looking into the abyss and it's scary, let's move away from it.

[Oscar Arce]

More pain I'm afraid.
We will shore things up slightly but I can't see anything other than 2-0 to them.

[darren woolley]

1-1 draw for me.

[tbiddulph]

2-0  to Villa Benteke, Wieman

[john2710]

Anything is possible, providing we pick the right players / formation.

Benteke will cause them problems.

A 2-1 win, against all the odds.

[Lobsterboy]

Unless we have more options available than the ones we had to choose from yesterday then it will be another defeat.

I'll go 2-0 Swansea

the bigger concern is that he's having a dream and that's best line up he could come up with.

[Risso]

Another 3-0 drubbing.  The beatings will continue until morale improves.

[levico]

Lamberts stubbornness will result in another debacle. When will this ever end? Every dreadful defeat seems to make the next defeat more likely. It's a vicious circle that needs to be broken somehow.

[damon loves JT]

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

You sound like my old PE teacher

[clash city rocker]

Have relations that live not far away so am going to game. I think for possibly the first time ever i am dreading going as i can stand having the piss ripped out of me but when the opposition fans start to pity you it gets all too much.
