Aston Villa v Brighton Match Thread.

A 4-0 win puts us top of the league, or 5-2, 6-3, etc..

All realistic scorelines these days  , as is a 3-0 defeat  .

[cdbearsfan]

4-1 would be enough, too. Need to win by three or more and score at least four.

I'll be honest, I'll settle for being second at full-time.

Not free just not ppv.

Garth Crooks has joined the ranks of those wanting Jack to leave the Villa:

Jack Grealish is talented and we've always known that.

The question was: could he do it on the big stage? It appears he can. The next question is: will he stay at Aston Villa, or will he want to win things? If he wants to win things, he probably has to move on.

He's a top four player. He has a question to ask himself. This season he has been outstanding.

Barkley hamstring gone after taking FK.

Hourihane coming on.

Every pundit, the majority of whom were never enamored by Jack, now want him at one or other of the usual suspects.  It would be funny if it wasn't so lazy and predictable.  I can see this bone being gnawed for the foreseeable future.

Fuck. That’s Barkley out for a month then.

[Toronto Villa]

That's a big blow losing barkley. Big chance for Conor but it does show that we are still thin in the middle in terms of proper quality and depth.

[SoccerHQ]

Traore seems to be being prepared instead.

Surprised by that, might leave us a bit open in central midfield.

[TopDeck113]

Oh, well.  At least his absence will during our "easier" run of games...

[ez]

Sub Barkley. Dont risk it.

This wank with players needing to put their kit on and comb their hair before coming on, drives me barmy.

[Toronto Villa]

Attacking move by Deano bringing Bert on.

Me too. They should be ready to come straight on,

[baddowvillans]

Only at the Villa eh?
