Aston Villa (A) - Match Thread

[Assassin]

Horribly defensive lineup.

[Mattshark]

Surely 4-3-3. Mash sitting with Xabi and Lucas in front. Kuyt and Keane wide of Nando.

That is what I'd have thought.

[Exiled_red]

hope your right

...So do I, I couldn't handle another drama on top of all the others we have at the moment!

[Mattshark]

Yeah its the defensive 433 of doom.

[Shaggy]

----------Reina------------

Arbeloa--Carra--Skrtel---Dossena

---------Mascherano---------

-------Alonso-----Lucas-----

--Kuyt------Torres----Keane

[NicoBernetini]

Dossena will have an absolute blinder..

You heard it here first.

Been waiting for Masha to return and now he will shine

[BahBah75]

how long before oneil starts acting like a cock! I have villa hope we feckin stuff em! Come on reds

[JPK]

We have alot of talent on the pitch and i'm confident. Who cares about formation as long as we win. I can see us get an early one and then hit them on the break for fun.

[Assassin]

Yeah its the defensive 433 of doom.

It will be 4 2 3 1

[rage]

however way i look at this at best its 442 with lucas and kuyt attempting to operate on the flanks or 451/4231 with keane playing behind torres and lucas on the left. in both scenarios lucas is out of position. i remember watching him line up in a similar position last season and he was awful.

****ING SKY CUNTS. Bleating about Gerrard not being played in his best position - he's not even ****ing playing ffs!!!!!!!!

[anfieldanfield]

Mascherano, Lucas and Xabi all in the same eleven ?!

Far too conservative for me.

Anyway, I'll put that to one side for the next two hours, come on you reds!

[Mattshark]

come on you reds!

I don't watch the build up on Sky anymore, it's frustratingly ****e punditry.

Won't be turning it on until 4pm.
