Aston Villa (H) - Sun 22nd May, 16:00 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread

Those 2 Bowen goals what. KDB and Bernie are attacking players. We need more control and stability. I am pretty sure Pep will start Rodri and Gundo on Sunday and give KDB space upfront to be a hero as he did against Wolves and Newcastle.

They both at death’s door?

Retiring, apparently, mate. It amounts to the same thing. And I should know. I'm retired.

Well, given our injuries, that’s not entirely inaccurate…

You naughty boy…

Let's all take a minute to meditate the fact that this weekend we're losing legends like Hodgson and Lawrenson.

Anyone recently retired from the work they loved and missing it can agree. (taking your comment seriously and not tongue in cheek!)
Plus, remember Hodgson did brilliant stuff back in the day with Switzerland and Lawro has usually tipped City to win on the BBC.

Some Villa pre match opinions

Pre Match thread

Just now, hippo said: The Man City one shouldn't be a problem Aside from preventing Jack from winning the league, why would the players care if City or Liverpool win?

www.villatalk.com

"The less trophies oil money can buy the better. If City lose, it would mean they broke the league transfer record on a player and still failed to win a single trophy this season"

Are they not aware that they will be spending the 'oil money' in the summer?

 

[SWP's back]

Agree. Don‘t do it kids.


Our strongest 11 are with 2 DMs and KDB behind striker. We saw his performance against Wolves on this position.

With KDB and Bernie in front of Rodri we are very weak defensively as they leave Rodri alone to deal counter attacks. We need Gundo’s patience and

-----------------------------Ederson---------------------------------
Walker------------Stones----------Laporte--------Cancelo

No. Stop.

I'd be more worried if we were 2nd going into the last game and Oliver was in charge at klanfield
