Aston Villa vs Burnley Pre-Match Thread

[Matt Collins]

Seems a bit harsh on Preston to remove him at this critical stage.

Did I imagine it or did Robinson play an U-21 game the other day for us???

To be fair I could be imagining it.

EDIT-
He did.

Whether he's elligable to play for us again this season is another matter.

Is anyone else allowed to join that conversation or are you ok in the corner there? 😀

[Toronto Villa]

Gabby shows up for the big games. He'll play some roll if we go on to win the cup.

A drum roll or a cheese roll?

You're making me hungry. Sausage roll preferably from Greggs. Maybe a Corn Beef pastie too.

[silhillvilla]

3-1 home win.

Surely Robinson will play? It would be harsh to recall him so he can't make the Playoff Final otherwise.

6-1 to the Villa!

6-1 to the Villa!

Still got issues at the back if we let one in

I have just read the awful Mike Jones is the referee against Burnley.There is bound to be some bad decisions,thankfully the result is not vital.

Worse referee out there.he's an absolute joke

This is a private club for me, myself and I. Good day to you sir.

Massive game, been absolutely bricking it all week. Lambert really cannot afford any slips up this time.

[silhillvilla]

I doubt burnley will be back in the PL anytime soon so this will be a fitting and special send off for them, a proper ground, with atmosphere and some compelling football for them to absorb bottle up and put on their mantelpieces.

Do you think he'll risk Grealish? It was a good 20 minutes v Southampton and he's a good alternative to Sinclair but his lack of pace worries me for a winger. not sure whether its worth recalling Benteke (I know I know) but he's only scored 5 times this season. Shows that first season was a fluke. If we get £15m for him in the summer I'd bite anyone's hands off. Get rid of that idiot Cleverley too and give Cole a go. Fucking hell. To think, we'll probably do down and we allowed the Stevie G wankfest final to take place. No wonder why everyone hates us.

Remember how many thought this would be a winner takes all decider? Now it's just a warm up for us to win the FA Cup.

I just hope we can hit the magical 20 goal mark.

4-0
Robinson, Sinclair, Cole, Gabby to score

[OCD]

We would have been dead and buried if Lambert had been kept on.
