JP Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Avoid defeat here and i think its done in terms of CL. We'll go there to win the game though the confidence is sky high amongst the first 11 (+Gordon). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Displayname Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 (edited) Checked every Villa player to see how much they have played lately. Its quite impressive how much they have been able to rotate and still keep up the good results. Rogers, Tielemann and Konsa have all been playing nearly every minutes of their 6 games in 3 weeks though, its got to take its toll doesnt it? Especially since most of them have been hard fought and important games, not like the training exercises we have been having.

black_n_white Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Villa will go full strength, they’ve gambled heavily on getting back into the champions league next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't gambled, remember they flogged Duran for mental money and the liabilities they took on will likely be returned at the end of the season.

Optimistic Nut Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Finish the season by winning the home games and getting 4+ points at Villa, Brighton & Arsenal. Gauntlet thrown down for next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 A loss for Villa is a big problem. The pressure is on them to get a result. That will surely help us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Currently 1/20 to finish top 5. Obviously that's just what the bookies think and isn't indicative of the exact probability. It'll also come right back in if we were to lose on Saturday, but right now we're looking very very secure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think so, they have a big squad and I think they will just treat it like the other games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 We'll be tested more defensively than we have been for awhile. Hopefully we have one more Arsenal semi-final level performances in us. But if Villa go all out and play Watkins, Rashford, Asensio, Rogers etc then I think we will hit them in the counter well. Hopefully don't pick up any injuries or suspensions as I suspect this one is gonna be feisty after the last game. Two clubs don't seem to like eachother much, which tends to happen when you become competitive rivals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Got a feeling about this one. Think it's going to be a bit mental. I can see a crazy 4-4. Isak hat trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Dancer Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I can see anything here tbh. Loss, draw or win all seem as likely as the other. Anything other than a defeat and it's done. A defeat just delays it by a couple of weeks. If we do lose, then City/Villa sharing the points on Tuesday and us beating Ipswich and we are essentially back to where we are now, with 2 games less to play. We're in a great position, so won't get myself too low if we do lose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
