I think he'll employ something like 4-5-1 and try to stifle the midfield.

It will be a lavish, celebratory funeralling, like the New Orleans one in Live and Let Die.

It's going to be like they do in India.

We're going to set fire to these motherfuckers, stick them on an inflatable and float them down the Ganges canal.

I would imagine Sir Cameron Archer is right now spreading the fear in their dressing room. He'll be pacing around, smoking furiously.

"But, but, you don't understand, you don't know what Villa Park will be like under the lights on a Friday night just before Christmas, it's insane, you can never understand, you've never seen it. We're They're going to funeral them us"

Luiz is back, we are on a roll . Hope Tielemans is available.
We should all look forward to what will be a great Friday night in B6

Not being over confident, but with top of the league in sight, 4-0 (Ollie 2, Bailey, Luiz)

With chat like that, the game might as well be sponsored by Fyffes.

I just hope it's not like Wimbledon in 1990... Looked invincible the week before then lost 3-0 at home... the scars are always there.

I look forward to the bench revolving and casting Chris Wilder into the alligator pit.

They will definitely do that. I think they will treat it like Luton did and just try to keep the goals down so even an early goal might not open the flood gates. As Archer invariably trained against the back four, would that give him an advantage trying to break the line?

Not at all, rather the more confident we are, the more likely it is to be a potential banana skin.

Very true and Ive spent all season being over cautious, but its Christmas and all that. Saying all that, some mentioned the Wimbledon game in February 1990 and I was at that.

I think Emery the Magician has cast off all the previous bad karma from the ground though. If we lose, it will be because Sheffield United have come and played massively above themselves, we've had an off day and they've taken advantage. But in terms of form, ability of the players and managers, this should be a very straightforward win similar to Luton. Sheffield United are crap, and Wilder was sacked last time out for being crap. He's since been sacked by two Championship clubs for being crap. Even if he improves them by 20%, they're still crap.

3-0 Villa, 4-1 if we want to give Archer a consolation and sing his name.

An early goal for us would surely be decisive.

We're going to lose and Archer will score a few.
