Aston Villa v Southampton Pre Match

[Drummond]

I'm certain McGinn will play, he's had a rest etc.....

A repeat of last season would be nice.

I remember that game. I was a bit miffed that we didn't score more than we did.

Me Too!
Could have been 7 or 8 easily!
Would love a repeat performance.

[Chris Smith]

I hope for a confidence boosting 3-0 win, I fear a nervy 1-1 and the team and manager getting booed off.

[Axl Rose]

Big game needed for John, to be fair. A screamer, ala Sheff Wed would be nice.

It would be great for us and for him for that to happen. The thing is he needs to keep doing it and having a consistently big impact on games.

Yes although hopefully the result differs.

Strange game in what will be a strange atmosphere in a strange week. There's less pressure on the Manager given the postponement of the Leicester match but he can I'll afford to lose. A win might be a stretch. A stalemate keeping the jury well and truly out.

0-0

[LeeB]

A straightforward 2-0 win I reckon

[Dr Butler]

a clean sheet please Villa....2 nil win

Anything less and he's gorra go Tom.

[Risso]

I think we'll batter them. 4-0.

[Villa in Denmark]

Why the conviction from so many that we'll keep a clean sheet?  We couldn't even manage it against the cockney twatty kit stealing thunderchunts.

If we win it'll be  a scrappy 2-1 with clenched ringpieces for the final 10 minutes.

Why would the atmosphere be strange? Friday night game at home on a Bank Holiday weekend, I'm expecting it to be absolutely belting.

I hope the atmosphere is good but a game taking place when the Monarch is lying in State, preceeded by a minutes silence and rendering of the National Anthem will make it somewhat unusual IMO.

We played really well against Man City and were unlucky not to have taken all three points. We'll be more defensively solid with Young at right back, and hopefully Kamara and Luiz will play to the same standard they did last time out. Hopefully having Chambers on Bednarek on the bench will show Mings and Konsa that they can't afford any fuck ups at all.
