Irish pundits on TV fairly positive about Villa's chances tonight. Reckon we need to keep a clean sheet though. Apparently even the Greek press were saying Olympiakos' performance last week was a freak performance from them.

Is there any way of watching it on TV?

They also had Torres on the right of a back 3 with Konsa in the middle. ???

That’s a disgrace.

I mean, if it was me I’d be fucking furious but I am laughing away at it.

We'll never have a weaker/younger bench again or in the past (Liverpool in the FA Cup, perhaps). Mental. This will be an incredible achievement if we pull it off.

Senior players missing:

1. Moreno
2. Mings
3. Tielemans
4. Ramsey
5. Rogers
6. Kamara
7. Buendia
8. Zaniólo
9. Chambers (our own fault we didn't register him but still...)

True, but i think with everyone fit i'd only really have Kamara in for either Carlos or Cash and Rogers for Diaby. I think Moreno v Digne is much of a muchness and Tielemans and Ramsey maybe not quite Luiz and McGinn. That said, i get the point about strength in depth but not really much of an excuse not to beat these over 2 legs, a shame we've set ourselves a tough job to turn it around.
I can see a good preformance incoming but whether it's enough to turn it around is the question.
