Aston Villa vs Lille - last 16 2nd leg pre match chat

[ChicagoLion]

The Barton’s a huge loss, I never knowingly met anyone from here.

A win, and a comfortable one. Think it might actually kick start the next two months. Wouldn't surprise me if Elliott starts either.

Seats seem to be selling pretty poorly from what i can see - availability in all areas

Maybe the novelty has worn off by having high expectancy and measured against the actual dross we are watching lately?

Giroud to score early. Villa finally get a penalty... five minutes after substituting Luiz... and miss it. Villa do score eventually, but it is disallowed after a seven minute VAR delay. Lille score the aggregate winner on 116 minutes from a breakaway from our twenty-third shit corner of the evening.

Could just be a case of people watching the pennies in anticipation of the price rises across the board resulting from the antics of Trump & Co.

The Bolton 2-2 had debut goals for Kevin Phillips and Aaron Hughes I think.

Was years later when I met most of those people for the first time. They were the biggest band of cut-throats, villains and murderers you could ever hope to see.

Barely a Hero in sight?

Forgot to mention, meeting Paul "The Weatherman" as he was known on here, to ask him whether it was really true that he had sold a piano to Hassan Kachloul as he had once claimed on H&V, was a highlight. He doubled-down and said he had.

Dunno if he was pulling my leg, he had kind eyes (Paul, not Hassan).

Score early and it will be a cruise. Lille are very average. Emery and the team are incredibly brittle at the moment so expect an early Lille goal.

Going tomorrow night, first time in a few weeks. Think it will be a tight game, Lille managed to turn it around at Red Star away in the previous round. Hope the atmosphere is better than the Salzburg game which was as flat as a fart.

Gonna head for the Warehouse, not had food in there, anyone know if any good?

Yeah it's alright. Had curry and chips in there the day it opened, didn't have to sell a kidney for the privilege either.

[Hookeysmith]

No presser or team news yet?

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Unai Emery, Aston Villa coach: "We won the first match, which is very important. It is not enough, I know it isn't.[This game] is very important for us in this competition."

[Somniloquism]

Training photos had Cash in them. Looked like Lindelof was wearing a face mask as well.

And that was just your brother.
