Comfortable 2-0 to us. Emery to tactically out think O’Neil as he does.

Be lovely to get three points before the break.

Think we will win this one comfortably.

3-0 to the Villa, Zaniolo, Watkins, Digne.

I know why Diaby and Kamara will start tomorrow. They weren’t injured in the first place. Diaby’s pull/strain/paper cut was more believable than Kamara’s non existent knock/contact with a Brighton player once the game was won. Had we been playing a CL game that would have been a different matter. I kind of don’t blame them but they do fall down in my estimation compared to say, Dougie.

Huh? Based on what?
Kamara brings the best out of Luiz, and Diaby brings the best out of Watkins.

They both should, and I expect will start.

They absolutely should if fit. My point was more querying why there was an assumption they’d feigned injury.

Weren't both Diaby and Kamara touch and go for the game on Thursday?

Hopefully at least one of them will be fit enough to start today.

I admire some of the optimism here - and would be delighted if you’re all right - but having seen them beat Citeh last week I think this’ll be bloody tough. We always struggle against them anyway.

I’m sure both Diaby and Kamara will play.

We should win this but we should have win here last season on form.

We don’t draw do we so I’m saying 2-1 us

They aren’t good enough to maintain that level of luck/performance every week. Just before that they were very fortunate to get a point from an appalling performance against Luton.

I’ve made Watkins captain in my FPL this weekend ahead of Haaland. I reckon he’ll help himself to a few today.

Will be getting on a flight just as the game kicks off so won't have a clue what's happened until we land in Brum. It'll be a race to turn on the phone's I reckon. I'm going for a narrow villa win with one goal to separate them.

Oh FFS! I was confident before I read this. If my weekend ends up miserable you owe me one...or two next time.

Yep if he doesn’t score that’s a ban.

Half the team out, wolves seem to give us a hard time, reckon they’ll win.

I've voted for a draw, only because we haven't had one of those for a while. It would be a massive result if we could win though.
