VillaChris Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I will go for: Guzan Beye Cuellar Collins L. Young Sidwell Delph Milner Fonz Carew Young Subs Gabby, Downing, Davies, Dunne, Salifou, Friedel, Albrighton if he's fit. Rest Downing as he's fcuked, keep Gabby and Dunney fresh aswell. Palace will be tricky, I wouldn't be surprise if we need a replay to get through this tbh like Donny last season which will be the last thing we need.

Mantis Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'm hopefully going to this game. Should be an easy win but I'm cautious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 For me: Guzan Beye Cuellar Dunne Bouma?? (If not L.Young) Albrighton Sidwell Delph Young Milner Delfouneso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted February 11, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2010 I think Milner could do with a rest to be honest so would like to see him sit this one out. We should still have enough without him to get through this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanky Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Would love to see Bouma in this one though not sure if he is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 any news on Albrightons injury? Anyone think Osbourne may feature? as his loan as been stopped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GypsyKing Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Guzan Beye Cuellar Collins Bouma If Bouma isn't ready maybe Davies, so not to have two rusty defenders in the pack of four, bring young in for bouma and maybe rest cuellar. Albrighton Sidwell Milner Delph Young Fonz I want to see Delph in an advanced role of the three centres, I think he and the Fonz could get something going. Still I think we'll see 4-4-2 with all the usuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudley_villa Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Gabby and petrov ruled out?.. Aston Villa's leading scorer Gabriel Agbonlahor has joined skipper Stiliyan Petrov in being a fitness doubt for Sunday's FA Cup fifth-round clash with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. Petrov suffered an ankle injury in a challenge by Manchester United's Nani on Wednesday night, which saw the midfielder sent off. And Villa boss Martin O'Neill revealed today that Agbonlahor also sustained a leg injury during the closing stages of the 1-1 draw, even though he was able to complete 90 minutes. O'Neill said: "We do have a few injury problems. Petrov will be a doubt for Sunday and he would have no chance if the game had been due to be played today. Gabby would be in the same boat. He hurt himself towards the end of the United game. He went down injured, stayed on, but is very sore today." On a more positive note, striker Emile Heskey and left-back Stephen Warnock were able to undertake some running at the club's Bodymoor Heath training complex today. Heskey has been troubled by a groin problem while Warnock has been sidelined for three weeks with an ankle problem. O'Neill said: "Emile did a bit of running today (Thursday) and didn't feel any ill effects. Stephen was able to do the same for the first time in a fortnight and we will see how he is tomorrow. "He is a bit more upbeat than he has been and that is pleasing to see." O'Neill is adamant Villa will field a strong side against Palace, even if Agbonlahor and Petrov have not recovered in time. He said: "We're going to try and win the game. There might be a couple of enforced changes and I might make another couple as well. "But overall we still want to compete in the competition. We have reached a Wembley final in one competition and we want to try and do what we can to do as well as possible in another." http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5jsUXr70XjEiSml-vg2qI1X7oZ5_w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Gabby needed a rest anyway. Do not fret fellas, for we have the Fonz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KT3AVFC Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 REST some players Martin. Use your squad FFS please. Why do I suspect that if we get knocked out playing a weakened team MON will get slaughtered for passing up the chance of winning the Cup. FWIW I reckon we will see several changes a la the Brighton game. Won't be easy but should be enough to beat Palace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 If all fit and available: GK Guzan RB Beye CB Davies CB Clark LB Bouma RM Albrighton CM Sidwell CM Delph LM A.Young © CF Delfouneso CF Carew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 11, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2010 It seems we might be missing a lot of players through injury for this one. I reckon --------------Friedel--------------- Cuellar----Dunne---Davies--Young Young---Sidwell----Delph---Downing ---------------Milner----------------- ------------Delfouneso---------------- Although I'd be unsurprised if Carew got 90 minutes under his belt in replacement of one of the centre mids. Although Heskey and Gabby are injured so we might not risk both of our fit strikers. I think the player most in need of a rest at the moment is Milner.

Coleshill_Villa24 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Got to get the right balance here. We have a great chance to get to the FA Cup Quarter Final but we also need to rest players for the Carling Cup FINAL. I'd go for (Dont think Albrighton is fit): Guzan Beye - Cuellar - Davies - Young Young - Delph - Sidwell - Downing Delfouneso - Carew Maybe rest Cuellar for Collins!?!
