Man C115y vs Aston Villa pre-match thread

[PaulWinch again]

I really think the response to the Arsenal game is not ideal for us. I’ve a feeling Citeh are going to be well up for this.

[AV82EC]

I’m heading off to the Emptyhad shortly, feeling nervous with a bit of trepidation but just hope we give a good account of ourselves. UTV.

[VillaTim]

A couple too many first teamers out for my liking .

[thick_mike]

They will be desperate to get revenge for the funeralling we gave up hem at Villa Park.

[stevo_st]

Duran, Bailey and Diaby will torment their make shift defence.
1-3 Bailey, Luiz (pen), Duran

[GordonCowansisthegreatest]

BBC's take,
Man City will go top if they beat Aston Villa by five goals & Gunners fail to win

Damage limitation for us I suspect. Hope our goal difference doesn't go down the nick!

Apparently no haaland or kdb starting for them

[PeterWithesShin]

Cocky fuckers, thinking they don't need them to beat little Aston Villa. Probably resting them for Palace away.

Why is there always a reason why the opposition will be up for it but never one for us?

[markeeeebeeee2005]

Think we’ll be up for it. We seem absolutely desperate to cement a champions league spot.

They drew the match before we played them in December and it was "They will be up for this after that match" then as well.

[Somniloquism]

Grealish starts for them. We have Timmy, Zani, Rogers and Duran but Bailey and Tielemans as sub.
