Liverpool v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[Clampy]

Vic Reeves has made some ridiculous predictions on BBC (vs Lawro thing) Vic Reeves prediction here eg 2-20 but none is more outlandish than that we'll keep a clean sheet at Anfield.

Yes and he said the baggies would beat Everton 400-1

He'll still get more right than Lawro.

I have a feeling both Benteke and Holt will start up front tomorrow.

Lowton and Bertrand need to be given licence to get forward, so I wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of a mish-mash 4-3-3, with Gabby on one flank and three central of Bacuna, Westwood and Delph.

Agreed

Bacua having more freedom than the other two. Might as well give it a go.

Agreed.

Can we have some more of this tomorrow please ?

The commentary sounds like the Arabic version of " Your boys took one hell of a beating."
And one of these would be nice to

[Steve kirk]

Have a feeling we will get a draw tomorrow, 2-2, Benteke and Gabby

"What time will kick-off be on Saturday?"

"Every fifteen minutes."

[danlanza]

As long as it is Liverpool kicking off every 15 mins then no problem.

[supertom]

Is it not time for the "liverpool having a stab at the title, but ultimately meltdown" thing to happen? Can we be the ones to start the ball rolling?

Sadly I can't see us winning two on the bounce at Anfield. Their home form has been top notch this season and with their front line I can't see us getting anything from it. But who knows, the wheels might start coming off for them at some point. Hopefully tomorrow.

5-1 to them i hate to say.

[rob_bridge]

2-2

Case, Johnson for them. Stainrod brace for us.

Will Bertrand be straight in or will Luna get one last start?

[manic-road]

2-0 Home win I fear.

[danlanza]

Will Bertrand be straight in or will Luna get one last start?

I reckon Bertrand will play infront of Luna, steady the Liverpool onslaught from goofy teeth.

Friend from home who works for Standard & Chartered offered me and a couple of other Villa fans tickets in the directors' box for this game last season. I turned it down - partly because I thought we'd get tonked but mainly because watching from a directors' box doesn't really appeal. Again, think we'll get tonked but, again, hope I'm wrong.

The lads who did go sat with Ian Rush and said he was the dullest man they'd ever met.

They never saw the game cause Rush's nose got in the way.
