Aston Villa v Bayern Munich Pre Match Thread

[Chip Butty 111]

6 Champions League wins would suggest a mis match, however our upturn in the last couple of years means we can have a real go on Wednesday, anything is possible with Unai's nous in Europe

[edgysatsuma89]

I mean... they are better than us. I know we are going good guns under Unai but they've been at the top table for years, this is one of DC's less ridiculous opinions.

[eamonn]

Fuck, thought that was Highfield Road for a sec...just saw light blue and got the fear.

[PeterWithesShin]

They aren't any better than Man City or Arsenal, who we've taken 9 points from the last 15. They're a good side, but so are we.

[VillaTim]

I'd rather beat Yanited Sunday than these lot . Obviously like to win both but I'd take a draw , play in 2nd gear then go full pelt Sunday before the international break .

[Paul.S]

They are a very, very decent team. The speed in which they move the ball in the final third is what we’ve got to negate.

[Beard82]

There a better team - but, like for the last 2 years - we have Unai and with him anything is possible

Our biggest concern is that cheating ****** up front falling over in the penalty box.

He's a serious doubt apparently, unfortunately they have another cheating ****** in Muller to replace him

It’s not exactly comparable though. Player teams you’re not familiar with, with European experience, is a different challenge. We’re a good side, but if we got a point it’d still be a bloody good result.

[Olneythelonely]

Wouldn’t be ridiculously good though. Think that’s hyperbole. I’d be slightly surprised if we managed to get a draw, but I expect us to be able to get a draw at home against anyone.

[PaulWinch again]

Yeah I wouldn’t go crazy, a win would be a brilliant result. A draw would be good.

[Cliftonville Villlain]

They're a great team in a shit league. That's all they are. We'll probably give them too much respect in the first 20 minutes and then we'll remember that we can play a bit too. One of Ollies great nights in Europe hopefully.

Agreed.
