rendelc Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 The rot will be stopped with a 0-0 draw. Lambert will be pleased as punch with this . i , however , will not be . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacbuddies Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Based on our inability to score against Crystal Palace, West Ham, Fulham and Sunderland who are currently the 4 worst teams in the division and the fact that our style of play (please excuse the description because we have no 'STYLE') is absolute garbage then I predict another home defeat and hopefully Lambert to get the sack pretty soon afterwards.

AndyM3000 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 If we score a goal I will be amazed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Swansea will love the space we will give their midfield. Remember last season at their place when we somehow got a draw after first 20 minutes Swansea should've had about 5. Really could see us getting hammered. I would flood the midfield 451 Guzan Lowton baker Clark Bacuna Sylla Albrighton Delph kea Tonev Gabby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) 10% possession but we'll win 2-0. Lambert will be forced to pick Benteke even if he isn't fully fit. It no good us picking a team to try and outpass Swansea. We can expect similar tactics to the Southampton game.

Electric Avenue Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 For the love of God I don't want to see Luna, KEA, Weimann start tomorrow. I'd rather play the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Lol i see this everyweek from opposing players and managers its so stupid. Ashley Williams now saying "Villa Park is always a tough place to go" . When has it been? Just tell the truth u freak its an easy 3 points, always has been. And yeah i know they were one of the unfortunate ones to lose at B6 last season, but its been an easy ground to visit for years. Lovely surface for passing teams like Swansea. Lump on Swans all you gamblers you'll earn a kotchel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_John_10 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) Just to try something different I think I'd go ................guzan.................. Lowton......Clark.......baker.......Luna .......delph.....Gardner....herd........ Bacuna...........kozak.........albrighton. I would change the back 4 if there were other options but there aren't.

rjw63 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Don't worry lads, the awesome Westwood will save the day. Back in reality, really don't want to go to this; we'll be shit, it'll be freezing, missing father-in-laws 90th birthday buffet at ours. Loads of people arriving. Errr ok Villa now sounds the preferable option <antisocial> 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 (edited) I feel sorry for all you poor souls who are going to the match. Is there a more depressing sporting arena that is a cold, dark Villa Park deep in midwinter seeing yet another feeble excuse of a home peformance? I doubt it.

Pilchard Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I think the team will be: -----------------------------------------------Guzan------------------------------------------------ Someone Crap ------Someone Useless------Someone Crap ------Someone Useless ----------------------------Someone Crap---------Someone Useless------------------------- Someone Crap--------------------Someone Useless------------------------Someone Crap ----------------------------------------Someone Useless------------------------------------------- Bowery off the bench on 80 minutes. 3-0 win to Swansea.

Kwan Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 It doesn't really matter how much possession we have or or whether or not we hoof/don't hoof. We need players that can play outside of the 18 and make the right passes and the right dribbles. It's all fine and dandy until we get to the final third then our answers seem to be half-hearted early crosses. When's the last time we played a one-two outside the box? Or a through ball? Or a diagonal? I'm a firm believer that Gabby and Andi are two players that are holding us back in the final third, trying to break teams down. They are fine when they can stretch their legs and run at defenders but every team has figured that out now. Both of them have horrible first touches and neither of them have good footballing brains. I've never bought that Andi has good movement. He just runs a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Swansea press high up the pitch then Gabby and Andi might be useful if o someone can play a long ball.Gabby is pretty much useless when teams defend deep like against Palace.
