Match Threads Aston Villa Vs Tottenham

Welcome to the Aston Villa Vs Tottenham Match Thread! COYS!

 

[sidford]

Do we have to?

 

[dirtyh]

hahahahahahaha. get. the. fuck. out. of. here.

 

[number41]

The torture!

 

[M.I.B.]

Did we get relegated?

The Team needs to be pretty much the same. If Lenglet is still injured then Davies moves in there, with Perisic playing that role. I think the fluid system worked and should be kept for now. Only possible change would be Deki for Richy.

If we win the next 3 games, then we make Europa League (IMO). There are a lot of hard fixtures for BHA and Villa.

FYI anyone travelling up. Trains are all fucked. You might get up just about, but good luck getting home on the train.

Official coach travel is subsidised and still available.

If driving tag me and I’ll give you the good parking spots as I live up this way. & will be going myself.

This looks to be a pivotal game in the chase for 6th place. After villas amazing recent form, they've only picked up 4 points from their last 4 games, scoring 2 goals.

Same lineup please, Lenglet hopefully fit. If he misses out the defense and formation will suffer badly I think.

Quiet in here innit?

Ryan Mason has shaken things up for sure. Dropping Dier and installing Royal into the back three was a masterstroke and showed his flexibility. On top of that it improved our defensive stability with a clean sheet against a Palace side who had been ramming goals in since Roy Hodgson went back there. He has made me feel confident about our trip to Aston Villa on Saturday. We beat them 4-0 there last season which was great but we were under siege for the majority of the first half. I like to think that we will play better football this time although obviously I'd take the result again! Villa's long unbeaten run was ended by Man Utd and then they lost again at the weekend at Wolves so they come into this one with uncertainty. I reckon it will be a tight one but If we can continue with the good defending we displayed in our last game I take our quality up front to bring the points back to London. Aston Villa 1 Tottenham Hotspur 2 COYS!

Didn't realise how average villas recent form has been, theure really struggling to score too.

Feel like we might get a W here. Imagine it'll be quite stodgy with a kane out of nothing goal, then son on the break in the 2nd half. 2-0 us

They failed to score in their last two away games but they still have 5 straight home wins.

And our away league form since (and including) the Leicester defeat is L, L, D, D, L, L.


Eek.

Bankes announced as the match official, he gives quite a few yellows (2nd most per game for officials with 10+ games). In his games he's officiated he's also called more fouls per tackle for Villa (1.6 fouls/tackles) and ourselves (1.24 fouls/tackles) than anyone else in the league.

He was the official for our loss to Nottingham Forest (red card given to Forest but we still lost)

Money on Romero being booked it is then..

 

[Ginola+Tonic]

If we were to win this that basically sews up European football for next season.

Although our away form concerns me.

 

[BH_spurs]

Away form is a huge concern, not won away since January. Can only go with the same 11 that played v Palace and hope it remains solid and can handle the atmosphere.

Forster

Royal Romero Lengelt

Porro Skipp Hojbjerg Davies

Richy Kane Son

Perfect storm brewing.

Perfect storm brewing.

That third pickled onion was a mistake...

 

[HedgieSpur]

I feel it’ll be a comfortable win for them. 3-1 I suspect.
