Optimistic Nut Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Villa's been one of those places where we've had a good record. Wouldn't surprise me if, along with the Riverside, that's been our best away ground since we came back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjala Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Given Beye Cacapa Taylor Enrique Milner Faye Barton Duff Owen Martins Not a bad line up, shame Young is back, as I think they will miss Agbonlahor less than Young. Guess it'll be Carew and Harewood upfront for them, which aint a bad strikeforce for Young to be feeding chances too. Need Beye and Milner to have good games.

YankeeToon Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Nice though a win would be, I really can't see it. Maybe if we get a bit of luck and a ref that actually knows the rules of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I'd expect all the Africans to walk straight back into the team (apart from Geremi) Aye, that would be a long walk. Especially with Geremi's 40 year old legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Best we can hope for is a draw 1-1 We can hope for a 5-Nowt drubbing of the brummie bassads. Might not get it like. I know all my stupid bets are going to be optimistic. Had a very optimistic one for Sunday, tried to bet we'd win 3-1 and accidently bet it would be 3-1 at half time. Thought 50-1 was bloody good odds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Seen Villa a load of times this season and they rarely look like scoring from open play but they are deadly from set pieces. So we should have no bother there then with Givens chronic fear of all things aerial and very little in the way of height in the rest of the team. We really need to start Viduka if he's fit as much for his extra height when defending set pieces than anything else. Another way of looking at it is that only Arsenal, Man United and Spurs have scored more than us this season. The set pieces thing is overdone. Until a fair way into this season, Villa fans were moaning that we never score from them. We're on a bit of a run now, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goals from open play: 23 (incl. OG's) Goals from set pieces: 21 I'd guess that's quite a lot higher than most other teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
