Think we'll win this 3-1. Leeds put plenty of effort in first half last night to no reward and then flagged a fair bit in second so they'll find it difficult to recover.

As a long-term resident of Yorkshire, it almost goes without saying that this is a MASSIVE game. I have several Leeds-supporting friends who are reasonable and decent folk, but I have been to enough games at E Road to know that the vast majority of their supporters are total *******.
They are a tough team to grind down and a draw would not surprise me; but, we have enough quality to make history.
And, we need to accumulate as many points as we can before the injuries, suspensions and form-drops start.
Going to watch this in the pub with a couple of Villa mates and one Leeds supporter.  The Leeds lad is one of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet to be fair, which I put down to him having lived away from there for 20 years.
;D ;D

Just had a BBC alert pop up to say Philips out for 6 weeks with a shoulder injury.

Whoever it was that reversed our injury curse in the summer and put it out opponents deserves high praise.

I noticed he went down holding it and looked in some pain for a few minutes aferwards.

I don't know who will replace him but for me he's almost as over rated as Jonjo Shelvey. An Ashley Westwood level player.

Oh No!

Whose bun will we deflect our winning goal off?

I know. My fear is it will all balance out and we will lose half our squad come January.

I would love to see us completely overrun their midfield on Friday. Push them back and take full advantage of the defensive cover he would have given them.

He gets slagged off on here but I think he's a good player. Big miss for them, Villa being spawny as usual. 12 pages on smalltimealliance.com by the time our servants bring supper. 😁

he is a good player - he'd be a good squad player for us :)

this will be another tricky 1-0 win.

This is going to be tricky, I think we all know that, 2-0 Villa.

Phillips is a big miss for them.  Gives them a lot of their midfield drive and aggression. Feeling good about this game.

Watched them last night, look like a poor man's Liverpool to me, press a lot, play a high line (good for us) attack a lot but seem to have a 3rd rate striker in Bamford, well lout of his depth.
