Emery confirmed yesterday loud and clear that the league is priority. Doesn't mean we won't give it a good go tonight but in terms of priority Sunday is way bigger.

As I am one of the one's who think we may lose tonight, the reasons are having been at both the Chelsea and Newcastle gamesWe got lucky against Chelsea, and without Martinez, we would have been out of the cup (I did hear that Chelsea fans reckon that was the best they had played this season) and then a really poor performance against a good Newcastle side, we just seemed to be on the slide, both in terms of performance and the confidence within the side.I hope I am wrong and that we win both of our next 2 games.

How dod we get lucky?
Go strong tonight, win it by HT, sub the critical players, on to Sunday. Rinse. Repeat. UTV
Don't sub them then. They've just had a break in Dubai - 2 games in a week won't kill them.
183 left so will likely sell out. Well done on the pricing.Martinez CashLenglet Carlos MorenoMcGinn Luiz Kamara Bailey Tielemans WatkinsBench options; Torres, Kane (cup tied?) Big Tim, Ramsey, Rogers, Diaby, Zaniolo, a keeper and Chambers. Yes we have injuries, but there's still some quality players there, even out of form.Smash these, into the 5th round. Win every game in February because that's what big clubs do. Coventry away in the quarters.

From your League , Cup and Europe prediction posts.I see Chicago Lion, Axl Rose , Dartagnan, MplsVilla, ChrisW1, Skerra DaveP, Eamonn, Aldridgeboy, Somniloquism, VillaTim,Sid1964 N'Mav have all forecasted Villa to go out to Chelsea. Is there any particular reason why don't expect Villa to progress?

Even the League Cup somehow.
