As someone has already stated I'm not sure how it'll go down but Moreno should be a nightmare for Trent in his new right-back-not-right-back position. Let's see how well Henderson can fill the gaps.

Any player is a nightmare for Alexander Arnold from a defensive point of view be it right back or new fangled role.
Southgate was spot on not playing him as right back for TAA is livability at defending.

It can go either way, they are now playing to put him in the quarter Back Roll.
He has got a great range of passing, so we need to make sure he does not have the freedom of the park.
Ramsey on that side is a weakness defensively, I would consider putting SJM over there.

Whenever me and my mate have a Toby Carvery before an away game we concede 3 goals.

A rare occasion of this failing was Liverpool away. We had a Toby Carvery and we still won 3-1 with Benteke.

Why this is the case, I don't know. We thought at one point it was down to the number of yorkshire puddings we stole when the guy wasn't looking. But taking the whole plate in Swindon was deemed inconclusive as it ended in a last minute 3-2 win.

I'm trying hard to work out whether we should have one or not. It could very well be the biggest factor in Saturday's result. I'm just surprised Emery hasn't been in touch to give us instructions in how to proceed.

Teams have tried going long and diagonal with a bit more success lately.  That’s what Liverpool will be trying via Arnold.

Thank McGrath for this.


And I thought I was "obsessed/superstitious" with regard to my many pairs of lucky pants!



Keep up the good work Dogtanian!

On the superstition thing, I had a few weeks trying to drink less caffeine recently and realised that against man u and wolves I'd used decaf in my villa mug on matchday. Went back to normal coffee against spurs.

So I'd like to say sorry to you all, it won't happen again!

No doubt we'll be victim to another piece of Liverpool cheating and referee/VAR incompetence.

Defeat.

This.

There is absolutely no way they'll win without that helping hand.

Biggest ****** in football.*
*Apart from Man U obviously.

FTFY

Haha. No mate.

They're worse.

But can most certainly see where you're coming from :D

Notice that Spurs kick off at 12.30 - so we will all now the result of their game before ours starts.

It's clear that you shouldn't have a Toby Carvery before most away games, but should before Liverpool away as we'll then score 3.

A bigger issue may be the H&V gourmands who will tell you that Toby Carveries are sh*t anyway.

I'm going to this.

100% away win record for me so far, and not counting on anything less than a win. 1-2 Villa

We’re gonna lose this I just hope it’s a 1 goal loss, to give us a chance on the last day

So that’s me all positive

Strangely confident that we will get something out of this game.  If we can go into the last game even one point ahead of Spurs then it will be massive.
