Aston Villa vs Ipswich Town Pre-Match Thread

Wm reporting tonight that bruce is going to stick with 3 5 2 

Haven't got too much of a problem with that if he does. We created chances off the back off it. Not sticking them away cost us on Saturday eventually.

Hope he does...he's been arsing around with the formation in the hope of stumbling across a winning one. Stick with one formation, play the players in their right positions and be patient. I'd still like to see Amavi wide left if he plays a 3 at the back though. He has pace and is the best crosser of the ball we have..

3-0 Villa.

[Goldie.7]

1-1, 1-2 or 1-3.

No doubts we'll make them look like a top side.

I dont have an issue with 3 5 2 if you have the players for it, just means that elphick will be playing

[Steve67]

must stick with 352 or it'll get even more confusing for the players.  Hopefully Jedinak is back to allow Lansbury and Hourihane to push forward. I'm not going to predict as I keep getting it wrong.

You'd better win.

[Des Little]

As long as that bastard Gates isn't playing, we'll be fine. Gamboling little swine.

[Chris Jameson]

Somebody is due a good 1-1 draw and I reckon it's Ipswich on Saturday.

Yeah, but we had the last laugh 😁

[Oscar Arce]

Am I the only one who thinks this new change of style would be perfectly suited to Amavi at wing back.
It appears the plodding Icelander and a Swansea stiff are ahead of him now in the pecking order.
£25 mill anyone?
Oh, and yes, a 2-2 draw.

[Rigadon]

Am I the only one who thinks £30 for a ticket is a fucking scandal?

It's not cheap. Try the North Stand, it might be cheaper.

If you're looking to buy, Seatwave have tickets as low as £11, at the minute. Loads at £15.

[PeterWithesShin]

Adults tickets direct from the club are £23-33. Seatwave can be cheaper, just remember they tack on about £5 in fees.
