It will be tough....like all the games have been in this league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't thought about that angle. I'll expect everything to go Brentford's way then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Every game now i just fear there is going to be a dodgy VAR call that's going to make us drop points. Maybe the PL are saving it for when we play Spurs. Edited April 18, 2023 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted April 18, 2023 Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2023 It's an opportunity for Watkins to improve his away record against top half sides. He only has 1 goal this season away to a top 10 side and that was Man City. He seems to love top half sides at home (5 goals) and bottom half sides away (6). Actually in our run-in he'll get plenty of opportunity because everyone who's left bar Wolves is top half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once onboard there is no turning back, reason and doubt didn’t join the journey, Villa will win the next 7 matches and we will get 3rd place.

We never win there so id take a point That 4-0 was only 3 days after the sacking of the fraud, following that performance at Fulham. I would imagine it will be on their minds, given that our performance then was under a caretaker manager, and not the Sultan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Can't wait to see what Unai will come up with. A bespoke strategy to beat every team in the league, the unpredictably of it all is nice. How are Brentford supposed to prepare for this game, are we gonna play slow and high, or go direct? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most Villa thing we can do is finish the season strong, make Europe. Sign 3 world class players in the summer and spend next season fighting relegation. Im with you though in the impending sense this can’t last forever. But absolutely Unai will have them as prepared and motivated as it’s possible to be. The juxtaposition of my experience of supporting Villa and my experience of Villa under Unai create maximal cognitive dissonance at this point in time. I basically have no idea what to expect each week and we just win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
