Aston Villa v Newcastle United Pre-Match Thread

[saunders_heroes]

Biggest league game in years.

[adrenachrome]

I think we'll win this, and I never think we'll win.

Just make sure the corner flags are well watered. I'm talking quicksand.

Excellent suggestion. Genuinely.

Forward it to the club.

I'd demolish the Trinity and Witton Lane stands and make the pitch about 40 metres wider.

And dig up and waterlog the middle of the pitch; we don't need it.

Let's move to The Oval. We won the cup there and it doesn't have any corners.

[Risso]

I'd rather our players intentionally gave away penalties than corners, we'd have a better chance of not conceding.

When we get a corner it is no laughing party either: they be scorin from our fuckin corners! . Or throw ins for that matter.

Let's face it, we don't like a dead ball. Let's keep it live, just like Barrrrrthalonaaaa.

From the dead ball specialists to the dead ball deadbeats in the blink of an eye.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Lambert to once again to go his old trusted Plan A tactic - 'gung-ho!'

Guzan

Lowton Vlaar Clark Bennett

N'Zogbia Bent Bowery Benteke Weimann Gabby

0-0.

[adrenachrome]

You ain't wrong Rudy. It be the Charge of the Lightweight Brigade all over again.

[VancouverLion]

We'll win this 2-0 Benteke, 26,71
Newcastle are shite.

UTV!!!

[TheSandman]

I'm half tempted to go for a cavalier approach. We can't defend, we can't play in midfield but we have three decent strikers in Bent, Benteke and Weimann. I'd put all three of them in. As for the rest of the team god knows, shades of shite. Put Delph and Dunne in if they are fit and maybe put Clark in midfield where he causes less damage.

I still expect us to lose.

We'd still be fucked. No wingers.

Guzan
Lichaj, Dunne, Vlaar, Clark
Nzogbia, Westwood, Delph, Bennett
Bent, Benteke

Tough on Weimann maybe but he is a great sub to bring in anyway. Bent needs a player with a good delivery so would have Bennett in midfield for that reason only.

Is Herd available again?

Sick of Holman, Ireland and Bannan. Surely Carruthers is more worthy of a chance to come on than those 3 jokers at this stage

At least with the back 4 above we should be physically strong anyway. Sick of seeing our full backs getting destroyed physically.

[willywombat]

0-2  defeat. More misery

[Proposition Joe]

We'll get at least a draw. I put money on Newcastle to win, and there are few greater forces in the universe more powerful than my ability to lose money on bets.

I also secured our premier league status by the way, at evens ;-)

[JB1811]

Villa Win, 3-1. Another game we CAN NOT lose!  The players to understand what it means for once, and put in a performance.

Just stretch the pitch right up to the stand, they can't get a run up then.
