Aston Villa (A) | Pre-Match Thread

[Scouse Blue]

I know I am repeating myself, but this is a really tough fixture, based on their overall defensive capabilities in the PL this season. After ourselves and Chelski, they have conceded less goals than any other team in the PL. They have played 14 games at home, conceding 19, and have kept 6 clean sheets (over 40% of their games). We absolutely need to take every single chance we create.

The games against Chelsea and Leeds were bad in different ways.Poor selection and players out of form .Strongest team please back to eleven points gap and then worry about the next two games

If we lose, our heads could drop and the rags will have the impetus

So they're going to win all their remaining games then?

I think his point is that they might. And he’s right.

We all ‘doubt’ it but I remember everyone saying that we couldn’t win our last 8 games one time. And look what happened then.

Bloody hell...there’s a match!

After all the players have been through it will be difficult to concentrate. I’d forgive a loss this once.

Even with United eyeing up a late title win?

Ederson
Walker
Stones
Laporte
Zinchenko
Bernardo
Foden
Gundogan
Mahrez
Sterling
Jesus

I'd rather see Sterling than Torres any day of the week. Raheem is getting some stick at the moment but he will overcome it as he has done previously. Always has to be a scapegoat at City....always been the same over decades. Give him another chance and get behind him!

Back to reality. Strongest 11 available please Mr Guardiola.

 

[Eccles Blue]

It should be a good game. Come on City.


Isn’t it lovely to just talk about playing football? Back to normal. :-)
