Could do with the lads rolling their sleeves up and putting in a shift tonight. As pointed out earlier, a cup run is never bad for morale and could help us out of this hole we are in

Hello Mr Sherwood, thanks for the team talk. :)

I think you missed out the bit about needing real men out there!

Arrived in Southampton yesterday evening. Was naturally pumped for this, but the fact that it's a sell-out has just added to it all. Massive respect to both supporters and huge credit to Southampton's board/marketing team/whoever's responsible for setting the prices at a very appealing £12.

I'll be in the Joshua Tree pub quite early this afternoon with the wife, if anyone wants to join us - she's the one with Aussie accent!

Bostin. You're a proper football man Silhillvilla. English football needs more lads like you.

Is Okore fit? He obviously needs match-minutes and probably will feature at somepoint, even if he doesnt start.

I think we have to have 2 deep lying midfielders with 1 in front tonight or we will be walked through and never have the ball. As such I would go

Bunn

Richards
Okore
Clark
Amavi

Gueye
Sanchez
Vertout

Traore
Grealish
Ayew

And then a few blokes on the bench.

I've had the day off, so setting off soon from West Dorset with my son to meet up with other South Coast based Villa fans before the game.  One of those I'm meeting up with I went to the European Cup Final with and also stood next to him at Highbury on the day we won the league. How times have changed. Maybe this will be the evening when we start the very long road back to the top! Up the Villa!!

You need to get yourself back over to the Sherwood thread, I answered your question but you conveniently chose to ignore the answer. You know, about you making stuff up?

We hope to be there by about 6, MV.
Should be a good few in by then so can you ask your good lady to sing loudly so we can identify the accent. There might be a pint in it for you both!

Come on you Villa boys!

UTV!

Would be very happy with that, the only possible change i'd make is Gil for Traore

Careful, he'll come up with some witty, withering put down and then invite you for a night out in Nechells.
