I'm going to this. Since we got promoted I've been to six away games and we've lost all of them.

I'm willing to step in for you. Last away I went to was Leeds.

Me too, and my only other away game this season was Old Trafford, so I think I should go instead

we're going to twat them.

The triumph of hope over experience.

What was the experience last time we played them?

We won at home by a single goal, scored by a man who appears to have forgotten how to play football. I’m not sure that is evidence in support of “twatting” them at their own ground.

Last game there, we won 0-1. Game before, lost 4-0. Over the last 5 the record is W1 D1 L3.

Anything could happen.

Saying we beat them pretty comfortably would have been easier and more accurate.

I defer to your 100% record having also been at Anfield

I wonder if this is the deepest into a season we've gone without drawing an away game?

So Traore is out with a groin complaint tomorrow. Pathetic! Also, Kortney Hause still out and Morgan Sanson is not available. Some of these players are made of glass!

Gone for a battling 2-2 to stop the rot. 2-0 Villa just after half time, then they get into it second half and we’re under the cost, but hold on for a point.

We weren't exactly hanging-on but they had the better chances after we took the lead. I remember a worldie save from Martínez, tipped over the bar. It was a hard-fought win. No twatting involved (except Kasper Schmeichael and his fine acting to deny JJ his maiden VP goal).

Traore and Sanson not available AGAIN - what a surprise!!

Since we signed them they've been injured more than they've been fit - either they've got inherent underlying physical problems, or there's something wrong with our medical set up. I wonder what the ratio is of games that we've played vs games that they've played/been on the bench since they both signed - less than 50% I'd wager.

Anyway, looking at things in the cold light of day; it can't help Gerrard if they're part of the set up from Monday-Thursday only for them to succumb to injures late in the week - makes things difficult if he setsc the team up in training with them only orr them to drop out.

Once or twice might be acceptable, but it's every other game.

Think it's time to move them both out - they've been a waste of money since we signed them, and use the dosh to get someone in who can do a job for us and has a better fitness record.

And don't buy any players from France. There's nothing inherently wrong with players in France, but it just doesn't fucking work for us.

Traore and Sanson: at least £30m down the drain. They've both had two weeks off and comeback injured!

I've given up trying to predict the score as it has become impossible to know which Villa are going to show up.

I think we'd get close to what we paid for Traore and Sanson, neither were over-priced and they're still at good ages.
I'd rather they were given a proper run-out of games between now and May. That looks more unlikely if they're out of favour/made of glass.

               Martinez
Cash   Konsa    Mings     Young
                Nakamba
      McGinn          Ramsey
             Coutinho
     Watkins         Ings

Is my guess. Luiz on after 60 minutes for a tiring Nakamba. Buendia on for a tiring Coutinho and Bailey on for Ings.

Then a defender will get injured. Young will fuck up a pass, Mings will be left a bit short but take out ASM and the resultant free-kick will rebound off Cash, Konsa will slip over trying to get the rebound and someone in a stripey shirt will stick it in the roof of the net.
