Norwich v Aston Villa pre-match thread

[pauliewalnuts]

Luck. Hm. Well, history would suggest that luck has been very much against us for a long long time now.

So for those implying that all we're missing right now is a bit of luck... what makes you think that's about to suddenly change in our favour?

Luck.

Who is going to start tomorrow?

I'm guessing:

Heaton
Guilbert
Targett
Engels
Mings
Nakamba
McGinn
Grealish
Hourihane
Trezeguet
Wesley

Although I wouldn't be surprised to see Taylor at left-back and El Ghazi in for Trez.

I think El Ghazi will be back in, either for Hourihane or Trezeguet.  I reckon Targett will start.  If Taylor starts after his woeful display against Burnley, then I'll really start to have some doubts about Smith.

There is a lot of talk about luck. I think if you believe you have been unlucky you are entitled to be unhappy but you also have to quickly get over it. Feeling sorry for yourself doesn't get you very far. I recall something SGT once said. If you win on a Saturday feel free to pat yourself on the back all weekend and if you lose feel free to feel sorry for yourself all weekend. But either way once Monday comes around put it in the past get back to work and move on.

Were you there for the Burnley game, Riss? How did they line-up in the end? 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-3-2 or something like that?

[Diablo]

From memory our record there is rubbish isn’t it? A win under MON and a late winner under Lambert is all I can remember.

I went there one New Year's day, got on the plane with the players, got my shirt signed, it was a perfect way to start the year ignoring the fact that we lost. Still a great memory though.

[London Villan]

The team that started vs burnley would do me.

[Mister E]

Both Aston Villa and Norwich City have conceded 121 shots at goal this season . Only arsenal more .
Perhaps this won't be a 0-0

How can you 'concede' shots??

[BoVillan esq]

We have to keep racking up the points, settle for a draw, would love the win.

When you look at it written down, that looks a very good side. Why can we not defend a lead?

Guilbert

Nkamba
McGinn
Luiz

Grealish

Trezuguet

Lawro and Charlie have been so supportive of us this season. Such lovely men.

[SoccerHQ]

I'd go wild and start Kodj in the front three. Had a good scoring record v Norwich in championship although seems he's not fit despite being back in full training.

[villan from luton]

I certainly want Trezuguet back in, for Hourihane who didn't impress for me last week. Norwich have loads of injuries, lets go for it

Ha! And you have no doubts about CR7's eyebrows starting?

Well, he's more of a goal threat than Trezeguet, and Hourihane looked a bit out of place shoehorned into that system.
