It's right next to the French and German borders, several hundred miles from Liechtenstein.

So far Basel have won both their home games against Stuttgart and FCSB (ex Steaua Bucharest) and lost all their away games at Freiburg, Lyon and Genk.

Let's hope we Brush them away.

We need Malen to be our Fox in the box.

Quite close by teleport then.

My hotel is right on the French, German, Swiss border. I will do a run on Friday morning that covers all three countries in about 1KM..

Just been sent this - from a legit contact - for anyone out here......

I have just been informed by the Swiss police that they are now enforcing a compulsory travel arrangement and meeting point for Aston Villa fans.

Villa fans will be required to meet at the below location at 18:45 to board arranged transportation put on by the Swiss police.

Steinenberg, 4051 Basel, Switzerland

I’m sorry for the short notice but this has been dumped on us very last minute

18:45 for a 21:00 kickoff? Shades of Feyenoord transportation then!

And yet WMPolice X account is saying it’s not
Mandatory. I wish they’d get this shit sorted out. That said I’m on a heavily delayed DB train (surprise surprise) heading to Basel, I hope I get there in time.

Any chance of Garcia starting tonight? I'm not a fan of Bogarde and Onana in midfield together so might be an ideal time to get Tielemans in there from the start.

Bizot, Garcia, Konsa, Lindelof, Digne, Bogarde, Tielemans, Sancho, Buendia, Malen, Watkins..
