Aston Villa vs Fulham pre match thread - Sunday, April 4th - 4.30pm

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Happy Easter, one and all!

A win would be nice, Villa. Please.

Thanks! XXX

John McGinn to score, mayhap?

[AlexAlexCropley]

2 wins in the previous 10.

That’s the Easter spirit.

To be fair Albion rose from the dead yesterday 

 But Jesus wasn't still 7 points from safety with an inferior goal difference having played a game more.

Romans away was always going to be tough

0-1 loss - Fulham will be right up for this, we have nothing to play for and are in terrible form.

Big summer ahead

[Risso]

We haven't got anybody who's good on crosses.

[Lastfootstamper]

I honestly can't entertain anything other than a Villa win today, even with how lacklustre we've looked recently. They've lost half their games, all but damn it. Even their recent form isn't great, a bizarre win at Anfield the only one in five. If they can't score against leaky sides, they certainly won't today.
Us several, Watkins with most of them, them none.
Someone earlier said about resting McGinn after his herculean national efforts. I'd go along with that, certainly if Grealish is back.

Newcastle have won two games out of the last eighteen.

We haven't got anybody who's good on crosses.

We did come back from the dead last season though

[RamboandBruno]

I wouldn’t rest McGinn, he’ll be flying after scoring three goals in the last 2 games for Scotland. Instead release the bats and push him further up, behind Ollie, jack and Traore. Have Sanson and Luiz sitting.
Looking forwards to seeing Jack and Targett combining again today down the left, Targetts got forward well the last few games, to find El Ghazi dawdling, or Tez chasing his tail in a circle.
I’m sure Fulham will be targeting this as one the games they should win. But start on the front foot, get an early goal and we’ll do them.

You can all make fun and mock the day of the Lord as much as you like but be warned a special place in hell awaits. It is the sin of the highest order to stage a trivial game of leisure activity on Easter Sunday.

medieval mumbo jumbo. Villa to win and get back on track.

[German James]

We haven't got anybody who's good on crosses.

Nailed it!

[Villa Lew]

We haven't got anybody who's good on crosses.

Nailed it!

You should be crucified for that comment.

The Calvary is arriving today with Super Jack back.

[Louzie0]

I’m eggscited about that.

Surely hell is hell, end of. Why would there be a particularly special part of hell that is more hellish than regular hell?
