Aston Villa vs Arsenal Pre-Match
« on: December 07, 2023, 05:14:16 AM »
Saturday, 9th December, 5:30pm UK time.

Arsenal were the last team to beat us at Villa Park. But the Tarquins are due a spanking from Emery's.well-oiled FTF machine. 3-1.

They'll cheat and win (I keep saying this about every team we play and we keep getting results)

If the atmosphere was good last night, just think what it will be on a Saturday evening fuelled by an afternoon in the pub.

Win by one goal again.

I think that Emi may get another clean sheet so this could be another cagey 1-0.

A night to remember at VP.

We announce ourselves as serious contenders for the CL spots but also for the title.

Me and Brazilian Villan will be on here at 10pm just before MOTD starts wearing our sunglasses and smirking at another fantastic result

Have we got another performance in us  like last night in 2 days time?
I really hope so.
The atmosphere on Saturday is going to be special.

They’ll get an equaliser in the 112 minute.

2-2

I think both Unai and Emi will have that extra incentive on Saturday.  Not that they lack motivation normally, but I think they - and the rest of the team - know exactly what three points would mean on Saturday.  Genuine title contenders.

I know this much, if I was an Arsenal fan, I'd be shitting it.

I'd have taken a point before the City game, and I'd take a point here, but right now, who the fuck would bet against us?

I wish the game was today, and I bet the team do as well. That feeling that the Manager has engendered seems now to be galloping along, with the supporters just as much a part of it and we will take that into Saturday. Play anywhere near the level we did last night and Arsenal won't be able to live with us but, like last nights opponents they are an excellent team and this is a very difficult game.
I do feel that home advantage and the late kick off, rather festive time of the year in terms of imbibing will make for a crackling atmosphere and see us home.

3-2

As an aside I predicted 1-0 last night, it's a strange feeling to be bang on the money in a game like that...........

Arsenal at Villa Park at Christmas to go top or thereabouts. 1989, 1998...the holy trinity.

Unfortunately I think they will bookend our winning home streak.

Not a chance. They were lucky to get the win last time out to be honest, so we owe them.
