Burnley v Aston Villa: Pre-Match Thread

[Drummond]

Same old same old.

You keep battering your head against a wall, you keep getting a headache.

4-0 to the mediocre but properly coached side in claret and blue.

That's optimistic. I think we'll only get 3. 😉

[Legion]

Ha!

[ChicagoLion]

Will it be the shocking Green kit?

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

                                     Heaton
                   Fred            mings              Hause

         Elmo          Luiz        Jack         Marvelous          Elgazi
     
                          Wes                      Kodja

[Jon Crofts]

If there isn’t a reaction after the shit show that was Watford then Smith should go of his own accord.

1-3 please.

Accidentally pack the home kit.

There just has to be a positive response from the manager, his team selections and the players themselves. Surely. If not, he is toast.

Wesley will play in his new glasses and get a hat trick of headed goals.  Us 3 Them 6.

[Meanwood Villa]

The formation won't change, some of the personnel will. Let's pray for a performance.

Been saying it for weeks but Hause at LB and Targett LW seems logical to me. We get ripped apart down that side consistently, Jack and Targett's link up is one of the more positive attacking moves we have and keeps them close together and keeps Hause in the side.

I'd go

Heaton
Guilbert - Engels - Mings - Hause
Nakamba - Hourihane
El Ghazi - Grealish - Targett
Kodjia

That's certainly adventurous. Presume however that Targett is out tomorrow.?

Yup, he's having his braces removed tomorrow morning.

Chortle. A late Merry Christmas to you, mate. And an early Happy New Year.

Apart from Targett being injured, Mings doubtful and JK having no chance of starting up front on his own...I quite like that lineup on paper but it ain’t happening.

2-0 Burnley
