Aston Villa vs AFC Bournemouth Pre-Match Thread

[Dave]

Sunday 21st April, Villa Park, 3pm.

Let's not do anything silly lads.

[London Villan]

We’ll be lucky to have 11 fit first teamers!

[Somniloquism]

Luiz is out again so McGinn and Tielemans in the centre? Cash or Konsa back as RB? Diaby or Bailey start?

We will out possess and out pass them, but will we be able to break them down AND keep out the inevitable corners.

[Risso]

Martinez

Cash Konsa Torres Digne

Bailey McGinn Tielemans Rogers

Watkins Duran

I'd be surprised if Cash plays after 120 mins straight after a few weeks out.

3-1

Yeah I'd give Captain Chaos a start as well, he's earnt it, very nearly won it for us before the penalties.

[eamonn]

We will be knackered, they're a top-eight team now. 0-2.

[PeterWithesShin]

We're a top 4 team, and they lost to Luton 2 weeks ago.

Seem to remember he did pretty well when he came on in the away fixture when we were looking for the equaliser too.

This game is much more important than Thursday was!

Every game now in either competition is just as important for us going into next season. The only English team winning an European Competition. Our first silverware in almost 30 years. Champs league qualification. All will raise income, raise our profile and raise the players mentality for next seasons efforts.

I’d love to win the conf league especially now we have played so many matches but finishing top four is crucial if we are going to push on and I would give it priority every time. I am worried we played extra time but hope we can keep going!
