Warnock is better than most ex-pros from a punditry point of view.

[AV82EC]

Warnock gets it, other pundits are too thick to understand what’s going on at Villa or they’re still living in the past with their tongues stuck up “big six” arses.

Yeah, Warnock's probably my favourite of the current crop.

Sky Soccer Special or whatever it's proper title is has been better than usual tonight, in that there's been some differences of opinion.

I don’t watch this one but who was doing the Villa match ?
Which ex pundit ?

They’ve sunk lower than I thought if they’re employing people that are no longer even pundits.

Why are we discussing ex-pundits in the pundits thread? This place has gone to the dogs.

Pundits on Aston Villa v Forest

Jamie Carragher Win 2-1
Villa vs Forest is a huge game for both, but I think home advantage will just edge it for Villa.

Chris Sutton Draw 1-1

Nottingham Forest are flying, but so are Aston Villa - they have now won six on the spin in all competitions.

Forest nicked the points late on at the City Ground when Villa went there in December, coming from 1-0 down after 87 minutes to win it in stoppage time.
This will be just as close, and I cannot really call a winner.
Even if they do drop points here, I am still confident Forest will finish in the Champions League places.

We saw again when they beat Manchester United on Tuesday that they are not bothered about possession because of their threat on the break and Anthony Elanga's winner in that game was one of my favourite goals of the season.
The way he took it was really intelligent, because he had the option to pop the ball out to the left but the United back-line kept backing off, and he just kept on going. His finish was devastating too and, overall, it reminded me of me in my pomp with the way I used to drive up the pitch.

It's going to be harder for Aston Villa to make the top five, because they still have the Champions League and FA Cup to think about, but they are on a great run and, at the moment, they have the depth in the squad they need even if they make changes here before they face Paris-St Germain next week.

I don't think Villa boss Unai Emery will prioritise any of the three competitions. They are in them all, so he will go for it in all three - and so he should.

Sure thinks a lot of himself, doesn't he.

I can only think this is self deprecation from Sutton because I don’t remember that ability in him

[lovejoy]

I think he's being ironic, he calls himself "villa legend" after what 1 goal in 7 matches?
