Aston Villa v Chelsea FAC4 Replay Pre Match Thread

[Clark W Griswold]

Don't sub them then. They've just had a break in Dubai - 2 games in a week won't kill them.

3 games in 8 days will though

What, like actual deaths?

[OCD]

183 left so will likely sell out. Well done on the pricing.

Martinez

Cash
Lenglet
Carlos
Moreno

McGinn
Luiz
Kamara
Bailey

Tielemans
Watkins

Bench 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.

Kesler is cup tied, came on as a sub for them in the 3rd round.

And Rogers played against us for Boro, so he's out, too.

And Zaniolo's injured.

He is back Tanswell said.

He is back Tanswell said.

Do you mean Townley? He's said Zaniolo is fit, but Emery didn't mention him and he's not in any of the training photos.

202 tickets left.  Looks like they've released another 100 odd in K2.

It would be very strange for the villa reporter from the local to declare a player fit and available without having some knowledge of that though

We only played 45 minutes on Saturday.

Pity Ezri didn’t…

92 left... I am priapic at the prospect of a full Villa Park. As should we all be.

Tonight is the most important match in our recent history since the 2015 cup final. We must aim for total annihilation of Chelsea but a very very lucky 1-0 would do.

More important than the 2019 play off final or the 2020 away game at West Ham?

Or the 2020 cup final?

Or the final game of the season last year, that got us into europe?

Can't criticise your enthusiasm though olaftab

[Rigadon]

I've just realised that, for those of us not able to go to VP later, we have to endure ITV.   Shudder. 

[Footy-Vill]

Let's be real though which Chelsea players are a threat or would we even have in our side.
Palmer and Silva are quality players as is Sterling on their day but I dnt think there's any player I would take ahead of Villa player this season.
