Burnley vs Aston Villa pre match chat

[RamboandBruno]

I would be nervous about resting too many after what happened vrs Spurs. Don’t risk anyone whose not 100% but otherwise go strong to get the job done.

Martinez
Cash
Konsa
Torres
Mastsen
Bogarde
Tielemans
McGinn
Watkins
Rogers
Sancho

Hopefully get a comfortable enough lead to take McGinn, Watkins, Tielemans and Rogers off early.

3-1 us (Watkins, Rogers, Tammy off the bench)

Let’s just win and put it all to bed.
That would be lovely.

Win this. Hope Bournemouth drop points this weekend. Sign 11 lamposts to stick in Villa Park and the Etihad for the last two league games. Smash Freiburg. Party all the summer with the World Cup on in the background.

Gets my vote.

Assuming everyone recovers from last night (a lot of energy was expended!), then I would definitely go strong in this game, get the win we need, and then rest anyone and everyone vs Liverpool ahead of Istanbul.

If we go with a weakened team, and don't get a result, while those chasing us manage to win, it will just make next Friday way more stressful than it needs to be.  The Liverpool game should be a celebration, the last home game with CL confirmed and a final to look forward to.  We do not want to be playing that game knowing we need a result.

Let's get it done this weekend, and turn our minds to the final!

Hasn't Lindelof earned a start?

[Crown Hill]

I’d love to see Lindelof again (nudge nudge) but I suspect he’s knackered!

[Somniloquism]

He couldn't walk at the end of the match for the celebrations so not sure if he will be fit to play, and maybe not the full 90.

Sunday 2pm.

This one is very nearly as important, just hope there is enough in the tank to get the job done.  I think there will be on adrenalin alone.  Win this and relax ahead of the Final.

There’s already a thread. Just not been pinned yet

[kippaxvilla2]

Darn didn’t see it so far down the page!

[Monty]

Need to win this. Not even getting a draw out of Fulham and Spurs combined was extremely terrible. Failing to get a win out of those two plus Burnley would be, frankly, unthinkable.

So, here it is. Fucking win Villa.

[Nev]

Keep the feel good atmosphere bubbling by going strong, get CL sorted and then the Liverpool game can be a good send off for the team (whoever plays).

Results tomorrow may have an influence but we should be winning this to ease us into the final.

0-1

[LeeB]

I would imagine the players will be chomping at the bit to win this and get it all wrapped up, start like last night and have it well in the bag by the hour mark and make a load of changes.

[manic-road]

On paper our most winnable league game left and we really need the three points which should be enough for the top five, go strong and get it done please.
