Aston Villa v Man City Match Thread

[Matt C]

Cant argue with that given injuries and the opposition. Don’t think we need a full back four on the bench though.

[Dave]

Be nice if Chukwuemeka gets a few minutes when we're 4-0 with quarter of an hour to go.

4-0 up or down?

Up, of course.

But he might as well get a runout in either situation.

[Drummond]

That looks a bit of a dog's arse of a team to be honest.

That's the spirit! 😉

[PaulTheVillan]

Where is Sanson? Gone out on loan already?

[Toronto Villa]

Just the eight changes for Man City from the cup game

Traore the undroppable.

Yeah tonight's a hard L, let's be real, but that's not the point. The hope is the point.

I would’ve played Davis, and Watkins wide. He’d occupy the centre halves a bit and at least help the ball stick up there. With no Jack it’s hard to see how we are going to get up the pitch.

Not looking forward to this one, it's got 25% possession and a good hiding written all over it.

Hoooooooof !

[Mister E]

Is Sanson still injured?

Bloody hell! Might be worth putting a few quid on Spurs for the League Cup. Kick the shit out of them, Villa!

Is Sanson still injured?

Yes...knee....out for a while according to smith....which means 6 months probably

probably never play for us again then.

[Villa Lew]

That's a strong City side, not particularly looking forward to us, but you never know, how much game time will Davis get this time I'm going for 7 mins.
