Aston Villa vs Swansea City FA Cup 3rd Round: Pre-Match Thread

[Legion]

I'm assuming it goes to a replay in the event of a draw. If not, I'll amend the poll.

4-0 win.

Saturday 5.1.19 3pm KO at Villa Park.

I'd love a cup run but for me the league is much more important at the moment.  If I was Smith I'd mix it up and give a rest to those players that need it.

I'm already anticipating that the highlight of the day will be the pre
Match balti pie and chips - I don't know if that says more about the Villa or the current state of my life

Can't realistically see us reaching the play offs so lets just go for it.  This is our holy grail. 

[Matt Collins]

I assume that's a joke?

[Matt Collins]

Surely we'll see a fair few changes

Kalinic

Elmo elphick hause Taylor

JDH Bjarnason Lansbury

Adomah Hogan O'Hare

Summat like that

[Dave P]

Steer

Bree
Revan
Elphick
Taylor

Whelan
El Ghazi
Adomah
Lansbury
Thor

Davis or Hogan

1-1

[Steve67]

Play the under 23's and only those who need game time, such as Lansbury, Hogan, Jedinak and Davis.  We are not going to win the F.A. Cup and I don't fancy going to Liverpool or Man City in round four and getting a tonking!

[Three Spires Villa]

A few changes, new keeper and maybe Hogan given a start, plus a couple from the U-23s. Villa to win 2-1.

[Clampy]

I'd leave Chester out, give Mcginn a breather and give Hogan a start.

Bollocks, we've entered it, I want to win it. Pretty sure Burton weren't expecting to get to the semi final of the League Cup when they drew us and look how that turned out. And I'm not even going to mention Bradford. Or Moscow and Martin O'Neill.

Rest McGinn , I'll live with that, but otherwise play a proper team, in front of a big crowd and tear Swansea a new one......it would do great for confidence as well.

Are Taylor and Lansbury fit again?
