They have some tidy forwards ,  I like Elanga wish we had picked him up

He's no Duran.

I hope so given Luiz is out injured now.

Very good.😄

Will be tough with Awoyini available for them, but we need to be winning this.

We're fourth for a reason. They're fifteenth for a reason. Let's stop worrying about inferior teams.

[PaulWinch again]

Not worried, more acknowledging they do carry a threat.

Agree One or two folk on here made that point.

Narrow win for Villa.

2.1

[Legion]

0-2.

[KevinGage]

We generally struggle against Nuno sides.  1-1.

I know. It will be really fucking tough for them. They're babbling on about our high line as if it made a difference at their place, with 2 pot shots from distance and 11 men behind the ball all game. They're awful away from home. Let's marmalise these uppity twats.

[Somniloquism]

We need the first goal in this so we can take some time and draw them out. If we have to chase we could be a repeat of the away game. But although they are not on a massive form streak (lost 4 won 3 drawn 1), since Nuno came they seem to be on a goal scoring form so we do need to get a few to guarantee it.

[PaulWinch again]

As I say they carry a threat, but with Pau I’m very confident. He will help us dominate the midfield and that will enable us to overrun them.

Marmalization for the Villa nation!
