Aston Villa V Man City pre match thread.

If Yaya starts we are in trouble

Thought he has been better in recent games. Certainly made an effort last night only his end product was poor.

he will come good again

----------------------Hart
Zabaleta---Mangala--Kompany--Kolarov
----------Fernandinho--Yaya
---------------Silva----Milner
------------Dzeko--Aguero

I'd play Fernando if he's fit.

Sagna may come into consideration, but he has been poor when I've seen him

What game were you watching ????

I thought he put a shift in and made a few of his usual trade mark runs that we have barely seen this season, yet just when it was opening up and you thought this is it, his final ball was poor.

I didn't say he had a good game, but I thought every blue put a shift in. Early doors we let Roma have the initiative, and they were working hard, but by the end of the game I couldn't fault the effort. I was bemoaning the passing at half time, and before I heard Pellegrini say likewise after the game

Yaya is way off form ATM .

... there needs to be clarity in the club that no-one's first team place is sacrosanct... if Yaya is not on form he needs dropping and/or counselling .. the guy has been a passenger this season so far, sorry.. I wish it wasn't true

By his high standards he's below par. No argument there

I think we're better off playing him, and let him get his game back.

Kompany is a great defender but Silva is a great brain.

Why not, I can just see him in the tunnel, sticking his chest out, clapping his hands, "come on lads let's fuckin' have em!"

He might need a box to stand on though so the players at the back can see him.

So you would tell Vinny what, exactly? Not good enough son? I know it's all in front of you and you can see it, but we're giving it to the wee Spanish lad, just because, well, you know, he's decent now and again, unlike you who is.............

Sorry, sleep it off and come up with another one.
