brummie Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 We left Barry, Young, Agbonlahor, Laursen and Milner (!) at home. That tells you all you need to know about how much we were bothered about that match. I'm just glad I didn't travel over there. 3000 very pissed off fans over there, I would imagine.

brummie Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 What do you think of Carlos Cuellar, Brummie? I think he's great except for when he has to play alongside Zat Knight. Knight would make Maldini look shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I don't rate Sidwell much, I can't ever see him starting for England. he blatantly will in 5 years when Gerrard, Carrick, Hargreaves and Lampard are gone though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timmy boy Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Finishing 3rd in the group, is probably better than finishing second, as now you miss the Champions League drop outs and play a group winner, although you play the second leg away. I think the depth of your squad will be why you won't pip Arsenal to 4th place. Villa were very ordinary without those five tonight, if one or two picked up an injury you would struggle to fill the void based on tonight's performance.

Still a good trip though. Decent city,booze, night,stadium and not too far either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first choice are a decent match for Arsenal's first XI. Our second XI probably aren't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I understand we will play one of Udinese, Wolfsburg, Galatasaray, CSKA Moscow. But I may be wrong. Either way, it could be worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Considering it is only UEFA Cup, those are some very good teams that Villa could eventually play against. I think CSKA might be first or second best of those four, but you'd probaly want to play them as they would be out of season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I doubt that Ronaldo mate. I think there's U21's who will be ahead of him in5 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 We'll see I suppose. I'm not a massive fan of Sidwell like some but he seems to be the type of player who quietly but consistently gets better and better, kinda like Barry and to a degree, Lampard.
