Aston Villa v Man City Match Thread

[Skerra]

Another great opportunity to go 4-4-2 missed. As we will only get no more than 25% possession, what’s the point of playing Traore who is hopeless at defending?

[TopDeck113]

Tough game against another of those ESL invincibles.

[Brazilian Villain]

Chucky on the bench.

Hope he gets on at some stage.

Chucky a lá!

Team looks as good as expected, we'll still win 2-0.

I actually want to see Traore in number 10 position. Probably not great opposition to try it but I think he can do something centrally so narrow midfield with him drifting around Ollie and let's see what happens.

Next season we will be up there mixing with the likes of tonight's opponents.  Tonight we're looking for a smash and grab.

[RamboandBruno]

I would of played Davis, but other than that not sure what else he’s supposed to do with what he’s got available. Let’s hope we at least lay a glove on them unlike at VP last year with Drinky pulling the midfield strings!!

[Pete3206]

I hope we can keep the score down to something respectable

[Bad English]

Ah well.

[Holte132]

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.

So you're assuming 6 minutes added on then?

[clash city rocker]

Have faith

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Ah well.

Beat me to it!

Man City is the last opposition to suddenly change formation against, we need to fill the midfield because we will spend most of the game chasing the ball.

Fuck the Ra.

El Ghazi must be well-miffed that Ramsey is ahead of him in the queue. Probably can have few complaints. Barkley even less so.

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

Man city looked knackered in their last couple of games. Sterling very poor in the semi shame he's on the bench. just keep it tight and work hard off the ball and please no gifts.

Trez and Sawiris might not be impressed if they read that.
