Superb work from Howe to ensure we practised that in preseason. Also their box midfield killed us at Villa Park. Let’s hope this time we’re a little more prepped this time albeit at the same time score early and it could be another nice win. The weird tactic of putting McGinn up against Burn was what caused us a lot of trouble too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Buendia looks like he'll be out for a while. Massive boost for us a couple of days before this game. Edit: my bad, didn't see it on the previous page. Edited August 10, 2023 by Mazzy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Shame for the lad, who is a real handful and seems to thrive against us. A few players going down already, and that's before we start playing 100 minute plus games. Villa are potential conference league winners, esp. with Emery, so they'll need their full complement. Us too of course, though our European adventures are likely to be harder but shorter. Fingers crossed our lads stay fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are trying to get close to playing 90min games. If you don’t cheat or fanny around the clock won’t stop.

Hanshithispantz Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) We could do that last season and players were still absolutely fucked at various stages of the season, adding an extra 15-30 minutes (depending on the team) per week would be massive man howay The new rules won't do that, but any push for more playing time is pointless imo. Players clearly don't want to be spriting about ever more. Edited August 10, 2023 by Hanshithispantz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managers just need to use their subs wisely. Absolutely baffled that you think expecting more flowing football for your money is a bad thing as well as unachievable. Do you go to our games?

Isak needs to start every minute he’s fit Don't be too shocked if Wilson starts, that's all I'm saying. He looks to have struck up a great understanding with Barnes, I think the early ball without too much faff is really going to be right up Callum's street.
