Nottingham Forest vs Aston Villa Pre-Match

[Toronto Villa]

If any team needs Keinan Davis then they are fucked.

Can’t work out if you are talking about us or Forest

Both. If anyone thinks Keinan Davis is a PL calibre forward to drag a side to a more fertile land then they need a little break from things and a cold drink.

He couldn't do any worse than what we have already.

That still doesn’t make him any good and is just an indictment on what we currently have. And I don’t include Cam in that because he’s not been given a chance. Truth is both Ings and Watkins have far better PL goalscoring records than Davis. So he’s just not the answer.

Nottingham Forest.

Lost 5 in a row.
Manager on brink & gets a new deal.
Striker Dennis 0 league goals since signing.
Lingard 0 goals & assists since signing.

You know. You. Just. Know.

We all do.  It's nailed on.

With a limp display.

The easiest 3 points they’ll get all season.

I think I’ll have an early night.

Low risk of waking up tomorrow and regretting it.

I might gather up the mountain off leaves off the drive, it's been a whole two days since I last did it.

I got one of those garden vacuums. Best £100 I’ve ever spent. Saves loads of time cleaning up after trimming the bush.

My childish mind finds that funny!

[Skerra]

Haaland or Davis…difficult choice!!

[Paul.S]

I don’t dislike our manager, I just don’t think he has either the experience or know how at the moment to cope with a job like ours. I also don’t think we have a squad to push on much past half way.

[Pete3206]

Just win you bastards.

[Beard82]

Gerrard has a great opportunity here - win this, and on paper at least, most things look rosey.

We have been lucky how badly most clubs have started this season - and it may just save SG his job

I hope he doesn't waste this opportunity, and grabs it with both hands and becomes the "best version of himself"

We’ll have we gone three at the back, or should I say, five at the back?

We'll find out in 20 mins

after firing blanks last weekend Watkins must be licking his lips about coming up against Forrest. It seems They've spent money in every position apart from crucially their championship standard center halves. If there's a game a goal shy striker needs it's this one.
I think Villa would be more vulnerable if Forrest had sacked their manager instead they've given him a new contract, we been caught cold by Bournemouth a result "no one at Villa saw coming" therefore I expect us to be ruthless and professional tonight. This is the time when you want to play the promoted clubs when their mindset has been severely dented.

Live score must have a predicted line-up, they have it as that at the moment.

[Toronto Villa]

Wow Coutinho and Buendia starting. What black magic is this?

Edit. McGinn still starts. As you were

[cdbearsfan]

No five at the back bollocks and Philendia playing together. Happy with that. Now batter them, please, Villa.

Total Christmas tree, and some interesting names on the bench. Nakamba, Bogarde, Sanson.
