Fulham v Aston Villa Pre Match

[PaulTheVillan]

Looking forward to tonight. For some strange reason.

SG needs a Mark Robbins moment  tonight or that should be that.

The Mark Robbins moment Steven Gerrard needs is the one where he gets appointed manager of some two-bob Championship club and not us.

Last I heard, he'd been sent to Coventry.

[Scott Nielsen]

Looking forward to tonight.

You should know that sort of thing is frowned upon here. We prefer miserablists.

Looking forward to tonight. For some strange reason.

What you up to?  Anything nice?

I have a relative staying with me from the north, I've been instructed to take him to the pub today.
Does anyone know of any pubs in Bham city centre that I can take him to that may have the match on please?

[Legion]

I think it's on Amazon.

[Neil Hawkes]

I think it's on Amazon.

Is there somewhere closer to Birmingham?

You probably won't find a 'decent' pub with it, as it's on Amazon, but if all else fails Snobs are showing it (the new one on Smallbrook Queensway if you're not familiar with it).

Frem the BBC match preview

Nine points from 10 games represents Villa's worst start to a Premier League season other than in 2015-2016, when they were relegated.

They have won just two of their past 18 games against current Premier League opposition.

Aston Villa have won only four times in 21 league fixtures, losing 11.

Villa have not had a winless away run of more than five games from the beginning of a Premier League season since 2011-12.

Their only win in the past 16 league games against London opposition was 2-1 at Crystal Palace last November.

Only Wolves have scored fewer Premier League goals than the seven by Villa this season.

Aston Villa's last nine league goals were scored by nine different players.

Philippe Coutinho has scored one goal and provided no assists in his past 21 league appearances.

Since the start of 2019-20, no outfield player has made more errors leading to goals in the Premier League than the five by Villa's Tyrone Mings.

Steven Gerrard lost only one of his 16 appearances as a Liverpool player against Fulham in all competitions, winning 12.

Thank you!

Hard to believe that I'm nervous about a match against Fulham in October, but I guess given our current state its quasi-justified. Not much excitement going on at the moment - no goals, no points, no anything. Oh, and Mitrovic has as matched our goal tally for the year by himself. They've got three players with 2+ goals, we don't have one.

Leicester have two winnable games next against Leeds and Wolves.. things could go from bad to worse by Sunday afternoon. Please, for the love of all things holy, get three points today.

Wont all the bright lights of the city centre scare them

Still, good news about the Chocolate Oranges.

Apart from all that everything's fine.
