mig4villa Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 just think it needs a natural left footer there! the defence is weakened enough without Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyavfc Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 2-0 18% possession. Delph and Benteke. 3 Shots for 12 against 2 corners for 6 against 11 Fouls for 4 against Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 2-0 18% possession. Delph and Benteke. 3 Shots for 12 against 2 corners for 6 against 11 Fouls for 4 against If Villa actually conceded 82% of the possession the opponent and only faced 12 shots that'd be the biggest miracle of all.

ismail-villa Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 If we win 4-0 we'll go above united right before we play them next week. Get it done lads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 This is Villa. Whenever we have a chance to consolidate or position we inevitably shoot ourselves in the foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 This is Villa. Whenever we have a chance to consolidate or position we inevitably shoot ourselves in the foot. Agree we certainly do never seem to capitalise once we have chance. Belief thing perhaps ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it done lads I'll take any win today and then beat them next week to go above them True but we haven't thrashed a team since the 6-1 last season against Sunderland. And Fulham are terrible atm, especially with it being an away game, the chance to go above the champions before we play them, I'm hoping for a thrashing against Fulham. 4-0!

chappy Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'd like to see Benteke and Kozak up top and whip so balls into them, no Hangeland is big for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 With the new manager and unlucky to lose to spurs this could be a tricky tie as they'll be fired up. This could play into our counter attacking hands though. Think it'll be 433 Guzan Lowton baker Clark bacuna Kea Westwood Delph Andi Benteke gabby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Just think we're so much better at playing away from home so going to go for a 3-1 Villa win. I'll go Gabby, Benteke and Bacuna for the scorers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think this is going to be an awful game to watch, lots of hoofs and very little passages of play from both teams If Vlaar was playing I'd say we had a chance to nick it But the inevitable line up of Lowton baker Clark and Bacuna is a terrible one I'm hoping now for a 1-1 but I'm expecting a defeat I really wish Fulham had won a couple of games recently because we really do love to end opponents losing streaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myko Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Can understand from Lambert's perspective it seeming harsh to drop Kozak after he scored but... I don't think he's got the right attributes to play away, can score but is dire at holding the ball up compared to Benteke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted December 8, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 8, 2013 I didn't watch the S'oton game, and we won, so I'm considering not watching this. Not that I'm superstitious or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Rather be playing them with Jol in charge tbh. He was having issues, where a change of circumstances can always have a instant change of fortunes. Still think we might sneak it, though. Usually a tight game, but we might have the edge in firepower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kozak scored and all credit to him but his hold up play is poor compared to Benteke's and he doesn't win as many headers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 If Benteke has any niggles with injury, I'd rather he was on the bench with a view to coming on in the second half if we need him. Otherwise keep him fresh for the Man U game. Plus it would be harsh on Kozak after his goal at Southampton. Without Hangelaand, I think Fulham will find it difficult to cope with his physicality. I'm more worried about our back 4 (or 5) coping with their attacking players. As this is the Villa, I expect Berba to have an outstanding game today. Watching Rooney against Everton last week, I said to myself that if that was against us, all those half chances would fly into the net. Don't know what it is about us, be we never seem able to capitalise on good opportunities like today. No clue at all what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
