Aston Villa vs Arsenal Match Thread

I think Okore is still a way away. In pre-season he looked very composed but did have tendancy to try his luck on the ball a bit too often and sometimes get himself into trouble. He'll have to be a bit more careful in this league. But he's a young lad with about 3 games under his belt at this level, so we'll ease him in.
It might be fitness, but at this stage, if he's 5th choice, it doesn't surprise me at the moment. Some games we are going to need him though, because he's got a lot of pace. If Hutton were to get injured, it may be worth easing him in at right back. He's played there. He's quick, and he's comfortable on the ball, and if he does fanny around on the ball and get caught out, it may not be as dangerous as if he's in the middle.

Baker's picked up a virus.

Same for Darren Bent. Probably why Lowton's on the bench.

And Westwood, so Sanchez in for us

Fucking hell this virus is moving quick, good luck Carlos. It's a shame because Westwood has been really good this season.

I think we'll be one or two down within 25 mins tbh

Come on Villa! Good afternoon everyone

Send out The Rock. Mission is to kill. Leave none alive. Show no mercy.

If you posted anything different I'd assume you are really, really ill.

So I hear. That's a late change.

Is Wenger pulling the same shit he got away with the day Spurs missed out on the Champions League at West Ham? Cheating git.

Decent crowd at VP today but not close to 40k at the moment.

[devilla]

Brilliant move that, unlucky.

[PaulWinch again]

Good start.

[PeterWithesShin]

Good start. Great work by Andi and Gabby.

[devilla]

Great closing down. I think that's what you have to do with Arsenal, get in their faces and hassle them
