Aston Villa vs Arsenal Pre-Match

[Demitri_C]

Know a lot of gooners tbh. Most of them are pretty decent. Spurs fans are far worse

[Allan C]

If we score first I think we’ll win this. I’ve voted a draw but I’m a bit more optimistic about the result. 1-0 to us

[PhilVill]

TV will concentrate on Arsenal 100% pre match, we will then win 2-0, which will make no difference to said TV coverage at all (which is good)

[Footy-Vill]

I think a victory is on the cards and we’ll see a lot of those so called pundits sit up and take notice.
2-0 Villa
Watkins and Rogers one early goal and one late one.
I would play McGinn again on the left to negate the threat of Saka.
And perhaps give Barkley some minutes from the bench in this one
Otherwise same line up as West Ham
At the end of the day this is a top 4 clash and even a title clash and very excited to see performance

2-0

Emery will be touted for every job including Arteta's. Our odds to win the league/win Big Cup/finish top four will be slashed significantly. Might put a fiver on each of those this week just in case.

[Rigadon]

they want to be Manchester United of the south - won't happen, and they know it deep inside.

Manchester United are the Manchester United of the South.

Absolutely. From a revenue perspective, there is very little of Manchester (small city in the north of England) in Manchester United FC (global sports brand consumed by a billion online customers).

2-2. Carlos to come in and give away a pen this time but also score himself, and get sent off. Tielemans and Odegaard for the other 2.

A clean sheet would be nice

think I'd put McGinn in the middle a bit deeper for this with Tielemens and Onana, Watkins up top and Rogers and Bailey out wide.
Cash needs to keep his head.
Keep a clean sheet and I'd back us to create enough to score.

If you’re doing that, then probably better to have Ramsey on the left and have Rogers fresh to come on if we’re chasing the game.

I know 2. Both knobs when it comes to football.

Good call re: McGinn. Get him stuck in on Saka.
I fancy Onana against Rice and Odegaard.

Take our chances and I can see us winning.

Arsenal are a bloody good side, this’ll be tough.

I know some Spurs and some Gooners and they're generally sound. The trouble is international fans, I'm sorry to say, who look at any non Superduperclub doing well as a bit like a B-level Marvel release.
