pacbuddies Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Very much hope I am wrong but Spuds to win this one I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonst83 Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 Agree CI. Lichaj is atrocious at defending against any player who is above average. Bring in Bennett, he suits our ball playing style more. We desperately miss Vlaar. I fear for us here. Oh and still haven't forgiven that cheating chimp lookalike Bale for his outrageous dive at their place this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coda Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 If memory serves we have a poor Boxing Day record. I still shudder to think of the 3-0 defeat to a Micky Quinn-inspired Coventry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Agreed I think there is a lot more wrong with this team than Lichaj. Things didnt exectly get any better with Bennett when he came on. Hopefully we dont get another battering on boxing day however I can see spurs winning by 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyFootballFacts Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Live on sky 0-23 Bale to get all 23 from penalties by diving. As it happens, Spurs (like Villa) have yet to be awarded a penalty this season... Premier League Penalty Statistics from Season 2002-03 to 2012-13 ...but Spurs have conceded only one to Villa's five.

MyFootballFacts Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Mark Lawrenson's Prediction for Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur Aston Villa v Tottenham (17:30 GMT) What Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert needs is a reaction from his players after the 8-0 loss at Chelsea. That doesn't mean they have to win but they need to show a reaction because they looked like Rag, Tag and Bobtail at Stamford Bridge. That's the risk you run sometimes when you play a load of young players and Lambert knows that. The thing about young players is that they will turn up at the training ground the following day and after about half an hour they will be bouncy again. The thing about Villa and their supporters is that they get what Lambert is trying to do. As long as they stay in the league that is all that matters. Tottenham came up against a very mean Stoke defence in a goalless draw at home. They will thinking they have lost two points but will look at Villa and think, after their clattering, they can go there and win. But it won't be that easy. I just think we will see a vastly improved Aston Villa who will have a real go. Tottenham are a good side but I think they will struggle to finish in the Champions League places. They just tend to disappoint a little bit. Prediction: Aston Villa 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur Lawro's 2012-13 Predictions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wedge Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Who the **** knows what the Villa are going to do anymore? I'm just going to turn up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avflife Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Going the game and going have few pints before just to make sure I can bare it if we do get another Chelsea style battering again Going go for a 1-1 draw, but Bale and Lennon will destroy our full backs (wing-backs) Lichaj will be murdered by Bale and Lowton just doesn't have the pace to keep up with Lennon, Defoe will score per usual past us.

Jimzk5 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 When was the last time we beat spurs at home? My only memory was when solano scored an over head kick in 1-0 win, must be 8 years ago now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I remember JPA scoring an early winner when we were going well under DOL Last time was in O'Neills 2nd season I think, 2-1, Mellberg and Laursen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 We beat them at home the week before I started uni which was september 2008. Think it was at home anyway, could have been away, it was a monday night match can't remember who scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 That one was away mate yea, reo-coker and a gomes classic spill from A.Youngs shot! Think DB scored for them that night too. Ahh, good times.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
