And this was my favourite ever away day there.

When people describe players as quick, look at that acceleration from Tony Daley, now that is quick.

Got to do the damage in the first 60 minutes. There’s a danger we’ll start to tire after then.

Why?

I was there that day and remember it being an early/lunchtime kick off. I also vividly remember Tony Daley's run and goal. I did however have to Google who scored out other goal. I had totally forgotten it was 'Mounty'.

I think he meant 62 minutes.

Just confused as to where the logic comes from that we tire first.

We attacked relentlessly against Burnley up until the last.

We were the side attacking in the 90th minute against the Dingles.

We were the side chucking the kitchen sink at West Ham and well into the 90th.

We were the side denied a penalty against Brighton in the last minutes.

We were the side that scored 2 goals after the 90th minute against Southampton.

We were the side that scored in the 90th minute against Leicester.

We were the side that battered Liverpool all the live long day.

So my question is, with the highly likely occurrence of us dominating the ball against Jurassic Sandwell, why are we likely to tire after an hour? What is it that has been seen to lead to such a conclusion?

[kippaxvilla2]

Not that I agree with it but I can only assume the logic is we only played on Thursday night with them having a couple of days extra rest.

The team will be freshened and we've only played 11 games.

Cash, Konsa, Dougie and Barkley coming in. That's an injection of real quality too.

My team;

Martinez

Targett
Mings
Konsa
Cash

Dougie
McGinn

Barkley

Grealish
Watkins
AEG

Lets put a score on these rags and proper fuck the Albion.

A win will ease the frustration from the Burnley game.  I reckon a champions league place will be up for grabs if we can keep in touch.

Why?

John Terry told the world that we tire after 60 minutes under MON, a decade on and his wisdom lives on.

[VILLA MOLE]

Except we have won by a couple of late goals this season

[OCD]

We're one of the fittest teams in the league this year. Other teams are tiring playing us and we've taken advantage with a couple of late winners and seen some contentious decisions go against us.

[kippaxvilla2]

Didn’t Hassenhutl say his players were knackered playing us or did I imagine that?

If you are really shit at something then resting doesn't help. When you return to performing whatever the task is you will not have miraculously improved, you will most likely as not still be shit.

Its a winnable, should win game...…...but hang on, its the Villa
I got it wrong against Burnley but I will go for the same scoreline …. 2-1 to the Baggies
Nothing scientific in my thinking, just years experience of hope, expectation and ultimate disappointment
Prove me wrong Villa
