Norwich City v Aston Villa - Pre match thread.

[Toronto Villa]

So i wonder who the 2 with covid are who are out?

Hopefully Tuanzebe and Davis

I've heard from a decent source its Martinez and Konsa.

I just hope that's wrong. I did question it as Martinez had tweeted about the game tonight.

Martinez posted this on Twitter today. So very unlikely it’s him.

The best scenario would be it's Nakamba since he is injured anyway.

Whoever it is, we should have enough to beat Norwich.   No excuses.

[Villa Lew]

Let's be up for it right from the start, don't want to see another first half display like the Leicester match. Going 2 nil Villa.

I hope we smash them into oblivion.

We could do with really cutting loose against somebody.  Buendia would benefit from a blinding performance woth a couple of net stretchers, as could Ings.  Let it be tonight, please.

Ladbrokes have put N/A on SJM to score tonight.

Dean will get a great reception from our fans but I'm sure will respond pretty much the same way that Gerrard did at Anfield.

Norwich were good against Man Utd and were unlucky to lose.

This will be a tricky game. 1-1.

yep, I'd echo that. First draw of the Gerrard era coming up.

Hasn't he already had it? I don't really follow the local news here due to limited Spanish so I don't know whether it's landed here yet. It seems that it's is ripping through the UK at the minute. Two of my friends have messaged to say they have it

I’ve heard Konsa and Keenan. No idea how reliable.

Konsa very; Keinan not so.

[Drummond]

I’m finally looking forward to seeing Dean’s “I have no fucking idea what do” touch line look as his side his 2-0 down after 15 minutes.

Or you could just show some respect to a man who left our club in a far better position than he found it

I showed him plenty when he was manager. He’s not anymore. And the past year we lost more games under him than any other team (maybe Newcastle came close). He luckily avoided the sack pre Covid for our form, and we had relegation form any time we didn’t have Jack. So while, yes sure thank him for what he did, we’d be in the bottom three if he was still here. So I hope we win tonight at his expense. And by a lot.

A lot because it's Dean Smith?

No. Nothing to do with Dean Smith. I want us to win by a lot every single game irrespective of who we are playing against or the manager or players who have a Villa link. We need to win tonight and with a -4 GD which in large part came from the tail end of Dean’s time, we need to get that back to positive numbers. So I hope we smash Norwich.

Well yes, agree with hoping we smash everyone. Just wouldn't want to embarrass him. 0-3 would be nice.

[Bad English]

My dad and me consider that the 3-3 draw at VP in April 1990 was the moment we finally knew that we weren't going to win the league. I still remember Rosario slotting their third, and equaliser, at the Holte. Since that game Norwich are to be battered whenever possible.

2 things i noticed  Cascarino dribbled the ball !  and that through ball by Sid ❤️

It had the lot. God scoring, Platt scoring, Cascarino scoring his first of not many, Mountfield own goal. Nice sunny day...

Haha, very good.

Aaron Ramsey is 11/1 to score on Bet365 🤔

Ha! I heard Mings and Cash but I guess we'll know for sure in an hour or so.
