They've started well but we've still got some quality players in that line up. I can think of at least one notable exception to that rule in recent years… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really good point. Imagine the state of us 2 years ago, if 5 first team starters were missing. We've still got the likes of Ings and Buendia in there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdman Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 We have a very good team. Not concerned about the lineup at all. They just need to go out there and ping the ball about with confidence. No easy games in the prem! UTV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, could you imagine losing 5 -6 first teamers from the team during our first year back in the PL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Not often we’ve been without Mings, McGinn and Gresford. Lets see how they cope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I'm gutted out how "easy" our starting fixtures were, alongside these abscences. What a waste of a good run of games, would rather have taken some hidings from City and Chelsea with these weakened sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerner's Driver Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 If there's one thing we know, it is that the modern Villa have the ability to produce almost any kind of result, so a win today is certainly very possible. That saif, if they score first we could struggle. Would be lovely to go into the break with a win and three more points, but I would be happy with a point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 damn we've been unlucky with injuries so far this season. at least it's an opportunity for Chuk to show us some magic! I think I'd just take a point going by what we are putting out but still think we have enough to win this if we turn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe wait till after the good run of games to assess how we did in them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You couldn't make it up. got a feeling this is a day we might need the fearless youngsters to bail us out. Clearly the club's Covid management process is shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
