FA Cup v Villa

[Mark79]

This feels now like a no-win for us but I hope we win 12-0 and the lads go mental for every goal and celebrate them like Marco Tardelli in 1982 or Ruud van Nistelrooy after a 2 yard tap in.

Or like a 32 year old Ahmad Elmohamady inadvertently scoring via a deflected own goal against a team of teenagers in the Carabao Cup 1/4 Final.

I was at Anfield in 2008 when we had to come from behind twice to beat the mighty Havant & Waterlooville 5-2. Them going 1-0 up was funny but no so funny when they made it 2-1
It was 2-2 at Half time

I think that was the season we got done to Barnsley in the last minute when we had a pretty much first eleven playing.

Villa team announced

Hahaha, coached by that bloke who does food challenges on YouTube.

[Fredo]

That’s the team which prepared the game and would have played against Villa’s first team. Keep the front 3 and midfield strong, which makes sense. It’s a cup we want to win.

no prediction thread?

Villa CEO Christian Purslow speaking to BT Sport:
"These players have had no contact with any of the players in the first team. Many of them are so young their mums and dads will be dropping them off at Villa Park tonight."

We'd better win this

[Fredo]

It won’t be as straightforward as we know nothing of them. There will be an element of surprise.

[McDermotX]

Only way there could anything in this for them is if we show a remarkable level of complacency in the basics of the game.

Thankfully that hasn't been a problem for us all through 2020






Oh

[SB]

If there’s no prediction thread I’m going with 4-0

Salah & Mane & Minamino & Jones
