Aston Villa (H) - Wed 3rd April, 20:15 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[MCFC1993]

Kick off time 20:15 (BST). Live on TNT Sport for those in the UK.

Think we've essentially wandered into a situation where we need 9 wins from 9 league games now.

Need to find a way of getting some goals and can't let them do what they did at Villa Park.

I honestly couldn't pick a best 11 at the moment.

 

[ojeme]

Ortega
Akanji Stones Dias Gvardiol
Kovacic Rodri
Foden De Bruyne Grealish
Haaland​

A must win this one.

 

[Gabriel]

Big test. Another opportunity to get three points from a top five side, something we’ve failed to do this season, though defeat would see Villa two points behind us.

Time to bench haaland he's been poor for a while. The arsenal game was a shocker maybe sell in the summer and buy a pep striker with the profits

 

[bellsouth]

Could we maybe try De Bruyne on the right and Foden in the middle?

I thought Doku did ok when he came on and should start. We were too predictable today.

Time for Bobb to be given some minutes now.

I agree. He shanked a couple of shots but put them on the back foot and got past their blanket defence.
