Aston Villa vs Bournemouth Pre-match thread

[richard moore]

I think we might cause a massive Cup upset and win this

[silhillvilla]

Crap odds on a Bournemouth win - 2/1 !

[Des Little]

Of course we are going to win this. Lump on. 2-0 to the 2015 FA Cup winners Aston Villa

[RussellC]

I really hope we change the full-backs for this one. Hutton and Cissokho are both fine defensively but I'd like to see Richardson and either Lowton or Bacuna in the side to get forward and get crosses in.

I want to see us have a real go on Sunday.  My team would be:

                           Guzan

Hutton       Okore         Clark         Cissokho

              Sanchez            Delph

 Bacuna                  Gil                  Grealish
 
                           Benteke

They've been playing their second / third choice in previous rounds . Their tickets went on general sale today . They've got great support and a have sold out upper north and virtually upper DOUG ellis....over 4000 so far .
Gonna be scarey !

Fair play....sold 5300 of 6000 allocation as at 8pm now !!

Why not just give them the whole North Stand instead?

 Bacuna                  Gil                  Grealish
 
                           Benteke

I think Grealish might be gone by Saturday, well on loan anyway.

Damn.  Will have to be one of Gabby or N'Zogbia then.

I don't buy into Bournemouth having great support. They'll be bringing more for their biggest game in yonks than they've spent most of the last 20 years averaging at home.

Supposedly he'll be here for the Bournemouth game with a loan happening straight after. Although how impressed Lambert will be with that Tweet may change things.

Enda is long gone.

Cissokho is far from 'gash'. He is a decent, solid defender.

Ok, I mean in the role he's being asked to play ie. wing back. He's useless . No right foot whatsoever .

that's why he's a left back not a right back

[eamonn]

What was the tweet?

[PeterWithesShin]

What was the tweet?

He's taken it down now. It was: @JackGrealish1: Can't wait to be happy playing football again

Plus some emoticons at the end and a pic of him playing for Notts County.

[eamonn]

Cheers. Hmm, not as bad as I thought from peoples reaction on his thread. Not too clever(ley) either though.

[Toronto Villa]

Gil to be the hero, us to break out of our slump. 3-0
