Derby County vs Aston Villa: Pre-Match Thread

[JD]

I think we will win this 2-1 (hopefully).

[VinnieChase84]

Waghorn missing for them is a bonus as he’s been a strong threat out wide.
Mount 50/50 whether he will be fit too.

Positive Villa - 2-1 win with Jack scoring the winner

[Drummond]

If offered before the game, I would happily take 3 points.

Would you like 3 points?

[The Edge]

its great to know that whatever happens we will be going to attack
Give it a go and try and win the game

that's the difference from times before

This

Seconded

Boro strike me as typical Pulis. Score first and you probably won't lose. Score twice and you'll almost certainly win.

I think the Stripey Filth are falling foul of their 3 at the back. They don't seem comfortable.

I think this is about right for a few teams in this division but especially so for Boro. I remember the play off 2nd leg where we were winning and Tiny Penis did not change his game plan at all and considering they needed at least one goal never really looked like they would score

[Clampy]

I've had 1-3 in my head all week. Not sure why i'm so confident about it to be honest. Chester, Abraham and Hogan with ours.

Mason Mount not called up by England so I assume that means he's injured.

Are you putting on a Brummie accent? If so 'Ar!'

[Allan C]

Hope I’m wrong but I think 2-0 to Derby  We just need to keep picking up points against lesser teams until the window. Derby are not a lesser team

For you darling, anything.

This games just come a little to early for us to build up any momentum.

Still its refreshing to know that we wont just turn up and let Derby Dictate the play, with ready made excuses to hand.

Could be a good game actually, neither team are good defensively.

[Kimaster1976]

We are not playing well enough yet and they are playing good stuff atm, cant see us getting anything. Got a tough run of fixtures coming up.

[BoVillan esq]

1-1 settle for this, c'mon you Villa boys on this incredible weekend.

[Nastylee]

Think we need to  score first but we can win. If we do then we can begin to believe.

I think McGinn us going to be key, pressing fat Tom off the park and really disrupting their ability to reset when they win possession.

Nothing to fear.
