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

Interesting line-up.
Are we prioritising the CL, or are the 2 big players we've left out simply not capable of 2 games in 4 days currently??
Ah well I've gone with a draw, but hoping for the win

Its more a case of 4 games in 10 days you have to look at.

 

[Phil1]

Nothing. He gets Peps youngster treatment of patience like Cole.

Oh do fuck off.

 

[bluemoon32]

A draw and we’re fucked…..

Yep, 3 pts is a must......could say that about every game here on in ha

 

[Gabriel]

Hope we see some movement between Foden, Doku, and Bernardo. Grealish can hold down the left, so the other three can rotate at times and keep Villa thinking.

Fuck y'all.......

A 1-1 would be a great result against this resurgent beast that is Aston Villa. They're playing the kind of football that saw them win the European Cup. Very, very, very good team.



Oh, and Haaland either scores tonight or we should take that Madrid release clause...

couple of days late mate

Like the look of the line-up.. Bit of dynamism and movement amongst the front line. Get a good look at Doku on the right too(his original position)

It’s a team that says to me we are micro managing every game now we are well into the business end of the season. Each game we play over the next month or so will see changes in personnel and formations.
Some of it forced through injury but mostly trying to keep players as fit and fresh as possible.

Is the correct answer.

Many games left, some more important than others played over two legs.

Having just binged on the documentary, this is exactly what’s going on.

Wasn't far off, for once. ;-)

Ha ha. Yeah I was thinking about that !

Haaland is fantastic, immense goal scorer, huge character and will be back to his best at some point.

But I'm not going to lie, kind of enjoy our football more without him in the team this season.
