Aston Villa vs Arsenal Pre-Match Thread

[Smirker]

Delph and Gabby will score the other two.

Theo Walcott out for 6 months.

[not3bad]

Giroud will probably be out as well.

[Shrek]

Genuinely gutted for Theo, I was really looking forward to him at the World Cup.

[Ron Manager]

Well as Walcotts out, Giroud might be out,Wilshere will be too busy being interviewed and showing off his tattoos to play,and Bendtners out
we may have a chance....just may you understand.

You forgot that our distraction is now out the way too .

Bugger off with all this negativity.  They will attack us because they are arsenal and they will expect 3 points - luckily for us, the only way we know how to score goals is on the counterattack.  So going by that logic we will win!

Maybe all the terrible football and anger and bickering and disappointment have scrambled my brains but i'm honestly more confident of getting some kind of result here than I would be against a team that will come and park the bus.

Disappointing for Arsenal, for England, my fantasy Football team and for Walcott himself but not so for his next opponent. He'd have torn Luna a new arsehole next Monday night.

[Des Little]

Let's just get right into them and maybe whoever starts for them may be out for the second half of the game as well.

Oh, winky thing...

[Smirker]

Expecting a good game and more of a contest than the Man U game was.

3-2 Villa.

Will this grow and prosper to become the actual pre-match thread? Stay tuned.

The idea that a team might come to Villa Park thinking they need to park the bus in order to get a result is a bit far-fetched.

Game will be over after 3rd on 28 minutes. They will relax. We will come on strong between the 63rd minute and 77th minute and look very good and very dangerous. They will geta corner in the 82nd minute and may or may not score. Our confidence will be dented by it and will go off the boil for the final 8 minutes.

So fucking predictable.

[Brend'Watkins]

I think the crowd will coach the team for this match.  Any fannying around at the back with pointless passing the players will soon be let know it's not what's wanted.  The remainder of the week should be spent practicing throw ins apart from Luna who will be given a manikin in an Arsenal shirt with the words "This is your man stay with him at all times"
