Aston Villa v Norwich- Match Thread

[eastie]

Hoolahan starts - what odds on him scoring an own goal

[Axl Rose]

Despite sounding negative, what a boring lineup. KEA...at home, what can you say? Lambert is dreary. Prove me wrong, Villa

[Jon Crofts]

El Ahmadi first name on the team sheet again? 

[PaulWinch again]

Just win please Villa.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Marc still on the bench.

subs: Steer, Sylla, Holt, Clark, Albrighton, Bennett, Robinson

Who's Robinson I'm guessing a youth player what position does he play

Callum Robinson, our U12 striker. Sounds very promising.

Thanks.  Got to be better than Bowery anyway even if he is 11. Haha

[Jon Crofts]

Poor old Marc must be wondering just what does he have to do.

[Villa-Villan]

Norwich have lost the last 3 away. So as per usual....Welcome to the rehab centre more commonly known as Villa Park.

Sorry but that starting 11 is dreadful. 

[Axl Rose]

El Ahmadi first name on the team sheet again? 

I can't bear him.

The team is about as exciting as a shopping trip to West Bromwich on a wet Wednesday.

Do or die today. Hopefully 3 pts and a convincing performance. Defeat and Lamberts head Monday morning please.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Ricky van Wolfswinkel failed a fitness test so Norwich are only left with Gary Hooper to play up front. Only problem is, we tend to put eleven plays behind the ball when opposition teams don't have their recognised striker.

For once in your life, Lambert, get it right.

[Irish villain]

Didn't realise so many teams below us have games in hand! Palace, WBA and Sunderland.

Absolutely massive game for us today.

[Mister E]

No Helenius on our bench?
Will Lambert have the balls to pull Benteke off the pitch if he's as listless as last Sunday?
Hoolahan in for Narrich? - interesting dynamic there.

I think he's mad not to play the Bacuna / Lowton duo down our right.

Not positive about this at all.
