Sunderland v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread
« on: December 30, 2013, 06:52:41 PM »
Wednesday January 1st, 3.00pm, Stadium of Light.

Opened on request.

Am unsure as to what superstitious risks I am taking in Legion not doing this.

Legion told me he didn't want to do it as he's an unlucky omen
2-0 sunderland win .

@MatKendrick: Ron Vlaar has resumed training, but not with the rest of the #avfc squad. He has an outside chance of playing at Sunderland

@MatKendrick: Christian Benteke trained this morning and has a chance of playing for #avfc at Sunderland

Do we normally have a poll? I'd like to add my usual reverse-psychology, but sadly accurate loss. Actually sod that, 1-1. Gabby.

If Vlaar only has an outside chance, and therefore doesn't make it, I can't see us conceding fewer than two goals. A back four of Bacuna Lowton Baker and Luna sounds appalling.

 Can we get the two or more goals needed for a result? Not convinced.

If Vlaar does make it I think we can win.

If Vlaar plays 1-1.

If not can see us losing this, maybe 3-2 defeat.

Thank you. I feel a bit more confident now (clutching at straws!)
