Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur Pre-Match Thread

I'd almost be inclined to blood at least 2 youngsters in this game - Grealish and Robinson spring to mind

I predict Bosnich will take out Klinsmann with a rash challenge outside the box and still get away with it. There may also be trouble at Selhurst Park on the same day.

Robinson is on loan.

Ahh ok. I'm running out of ideas then.

Amusing that Pochettino is blaming the pitch for Spurs's poor home form.

No issue at VP where Spurs usually comfortably win given how much wider it is.

I've often wondered if we should narrow it especially when we don't play any decent wide players anymore.

OS with their non stop bullshit

Villa v Tottenham is one of the most eagerly-awaited fixtures on the Villa Park calendar.

No it isn't, I never look at the fixtures and think 'I've gotta make it to the spurs game this season'

The funny thing about that incident was that Bosie had decided he was a Buddihist that week and following a path of peace, decided he would chin Klinsman.

0-3. Can't see the run ending here.

Is there a clip of this anywhere?

I was at the match and it was the only time I obnserved the incident. Clearly it was Klinsman's fault, he had a long of history of histrionics, and really should have been more careful so as not to headbutt Bossie's knee. In fact thinking about it Klinsman should have been sent off for violent conduct.

Our home form is dire and our recent form against spurs is just as bad.

2-1 villa ; )

On the bright side, he scored the other day.

As I recall it, it was a brutal assault on Bosnich's knee.
