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

[RamboandBruno]

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

Went there before the Newcastle cup game and for an hour after the Leeds game. Didn’t eat in there, but two or three choices for about a tenner each. Easy to get served for beers. Its not like a great pub, e.g. Bartons talk, but its ok, other football on the screens, ex players being interviewed live etc

I went a couple of times when it was just the foyer bit, service for beer was good. Hoping same tomorrow.

I'd go with Martinez, Cash (Bogarde), Konsa, Torres, Maatsen, Onana, Luiz, McGinn, Rogers, Barkley, Tammy.

I fear Emery will go with Bailey and Watkins again.

Barkley still can't play

Does that leave Sancho or Bailey? Buendia limped off at weekend.

[Dave]

Or Elliott

Barkley still can't play

I dont know the rules but why did we put Baileys name in the squad and not Barkleys?

[Somniloquism]

Manager decided it. Barkley was coming back from injury but was on the bench for the match where we would have had final decision. I suspect he didn't think Barkley would last or realised he didn't really have a right side player with letting Guessand and Malen go. (Bad jokes about we still don't with Bailey playing inbound).

[Dave]

We could add three new players to the original squad to replace Malen, Guessand and Kamara. Abraham, DL, Bailey and Barkley were the options.

Presumably at the time we thought we had enough in the midfield, and Bailey was needed in place of Malen and Guessand over both DL and Barkley being needed in place of Kamara.

2.1 to us

Still plenty of tickets left for this one.

I’ve got no evidence that this is due to the seemingly growing discontent which has been turbo charged as a result of cheating clubs getting away with it, but if it were linked, I’d struggle to be surprised. 

[Hookeysmith]

Sub 35k expected. 900 from  lille only

[RamboandBruno]

Given players available id go with

Martinez

No score prediction, just win

It's a minimum of £55 for a non ST holder adult and the classic 2 parents and 2 kids is a minimum of £160 for non ST, i'm not surprised it isn't selling out.
