Villa keeper injured in warm up

Reserve keeper will probably have the game of his life tonight then,that’s unfortunate for them but Martinez is a bit of a shithouse anyhow ..

What for?

Do you forget that Cole had a 1 in 7 finishing rate?

Haaland's strength is his pace to get on the end of a through ball, something we seemingly refuse to do.

Pep has two viable tactics with or without the viking.

His usual pass the opposition to death and walk it in using a false nine.

Or the big Sam.

Hoof it to Erling. Him and Phil remind me of the old Walsh/Quinn combo we had.



Both win games for us.

Haaland on the bench. You're spoilt you lot. We haven't even got a striker ;)

RIP Phil

Saw a pic of him in the week. Looks good for 127.

I’m gutted. I had a fall earlier and went over on my ankle but thought I would be ok. However it’s too painful. Ok for meandering around the house but not for the pleasures of the stairs of CBL1.
Why can’t we do ‘Beam me up Scotty’ yet?
It’s not my week. :-( :-)

Hope you are soon ok she.

But It's Villa a decent side.

They are missing the majority of their best players.

It’s hard to run onto a through ball when you have to negotiate two deep banks of five

He isn't good enough for you apparently.

Championship too much of a jump.

Wrexham level.

A draw and we’re fucked…..

Agreed, and there's no other reason than a gut feeling for the draw.
I have a dreadful feeling this season might just stumble to it's conclusion - win tonight and things will be brighter tomorrow :D
