No Ronaldo or Macheda in their line up or subs

I bet Sancho never regrets his move to the Plastics.

Hope Watkins doesn't start getting passed off. When Coutinho starts that will be his position and Ings should be dropped in favour of Watkins. It's one or the other.

Very strong Utd line up and fully expecting them to put in a "statement performance" complete with a dodgy pen/dubious red for us.

Why have we got two goalkeepers on the bench?....

So that when we're 3-0 up in the 90th minute Stevie G can bring them both on to replace Ings and Watkins much to the chagrin of TTOD.

Good selection no holding back but both Ings and Watkins? It's not going to work.

How the fuck is that a penalty? Wankers. As per usual. 93rd minute.

Just getting some practice in for later lads.

Asking again and what people think
I see SG keeping it all compact and asking "his players" (not his players!) to be aggressive.

I just want Villa to have a go and win the game in an attacking way but I don't know if that's going to happen despite the strong line up . Will we really take the game to man utd ?  Or look at a containing job.
I want to see a change in tactic today

So I'm politely asking again for someone explain or show to me otherwise how we exactly plan to win this today with way our system is. With the full backs.
Because Man Utd are very very beatable.
I can't stand it if we lose again in FA Cup 3rd round
I just feel annoying pessimistic based on how the new manager likes to approach the sterner tests. We could well be very passive
Or if not if not I fear we're likely to have a sending off misunderstanding the idea of being competitive by fouling.

Hoping for a same performance and result like last time here under Dean but do need to be enlighten how out full backs tonight will offer anything over the half way line or worry too much against Greenwood and Rashford Shaw and Dalot.
Hoping our attacking muster shots at goal and we'll let's just go for it

Up the Villa.

What minute will they get their dodgy pen sweepstake!

If it's a draw, the tiebreaker is how many times will Watkins pass to Ings.

You can set your watch to them getting a penalty during the game.

I'm going 63 minutes and twice.

FTMF! I'm nonplussed by the inclusion of Ings and Watkins together, but you know, Steven Gerrard is this ace manager who tells his players to listen to what they are told and execute their instructions as the coaching team know what the fuck they are doing. So we are going to funeral these plastic ******!

Lindelof is shit. So is Dalot. Plenty to get at in that line-up

Just read that Michael Oliver is the ref tonight. He shouldn't be allowed to ref a Villa game, the man's an absolutely useless twat.
