Aston Villa v Wolves comms thread.

[Jack Russell]

A very difficult game this one, but we have won difficult games in the past. The injuries don't help but the team spirit and tenacity are second to none. Whilst I don't expect us to get anything from this one, there is a nagging thought at the back of my mind that maybe we can do it! Certainly the lads have done us proud this season and I am proud to have been a fan since 1956!

So COYW go out there and give them hell!

 

[StaffordWolf]

Come on Chiwome lad, now's your chance to shine.

 

[Perton Wolf]

That has to be the worst bench in PL history.

Let's hope we can hang in there and nick one.

 

[Jack Russell]

Considering who we have available that is a great selection to start with!

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Good luck Leon

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Chiwome sarabia ran basically a 4-4-2 in possession

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

Good luck Leon. And good luck Wolves as we’ll need it.

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Cunha in squad Burnley to start next saturday

 

[LW1]

I hope that's not Lemina wide as he's wasted doing that role.

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Yep as expected and not much available to change it up
Will need every bit of luck going im afraid

 

[WorcesterWanderer]

Rooting for Chiwome... Not sure if I see us getting a win at this point, I just hope the boys put in a shift and give it their all.

 

[TelfordWolf]

Our squad depth is a disgrace. Look at Villa’s in comparison and look at who else they have missing.

 

[JaycogWolf]

Not expecting anything with current injuries up top! Thank goodness we are on the beach and won’t be going down

 

[Kingswood Wolf]

Get yer cheque book out Fosun, **** me sideways

Yes but we won't have to sell a few before the end of June to comply with FFP.... unlike villa...

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

Going to be a very tough ask

 

[Rhoswolf]

Our squad depth is a disgrace. Look at Villa’s in comparison and look at who else they have missing.

Totally agree, utter disgrace and reflects poorly on Fosun and clueless Jeff.

 

[SmiffyWolf]

Not much else we could have done today .

Well done Fosun on leaving us after yet another window needing a striker .

Great job by GON but hopefully Fosun will sell up if this is the strategy as that bench is woeful for a premier League team . I would expect that from luton not us .

 

[The Clock]

Dem bones dem bones dem ....bare bones

 

[JOSWolf]

Bench is so weak. Good luck to Chiwome. This game could be a very tough watch for us. I hope I am wrong.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

3 points off Europe, we aren’t on the beach

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

Villa don’t have 4 forwards out

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

I like the Wolves team!! Shame vile have gone with 4-2-4 could really damage us but we could catch their high line if we press well enough!!

 

[brianm]

Tbh, one more forward wouldn't r ally help at the moment. Perhaps it would have allowed more rotation.

Whatever, limp along and let's see what happens.

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Barnet Holman chirewa as three of the bench plus noha lemina

 

[Northampton_wolf]

I like the Wolves team!! Shame vile have gone with 4-2-4 could really damage us but we could catch their high line if we press well enough!!

They have a lot with Rogers diaby Watkins we need to punish there attacking element

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

They have a lot with Rogers diaby Watkins we need to punish there attacking element

Bailey is a speedster
Rogers can’t really judge much of him so far
Diaby and Watkins are deadly

We are going to have to keep possession well they have gone ultra attacking if we slow the tempo down should catch them on the break a few times they’re line is going to be very high.

 

[oldgolded]

This is going to be a tough watch. Would bite your arm off for a draw.

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

So much to play for and things pretty much gone tits up. I'm not sure whether there is anyone to blame for the squad as it stands or just bad luck. A bit of both I suppose. Really not hopeful today.

 

[WalsallWolf]

Trying to be positive, but with the team we have, I think we are going to get absolutely walloped.

 

[SmiffyWolf]

I think we have to pray chiwome just plays with no fear and runs them ragged . Then we might have a chance .

 

[The Clock]

Win and we are seventh?

 

[Rhyl Wolf]

Genuinely dislike the phrase 'free hit' but viewing tonight as something of a free hit If we get anything out of it, kudos to GON and the lads. If we get a thumping, so be it. Comparing the benches speaks volumes and I hope Fosun are listening. COYW

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Get yer cheque book out Fosun, **** me sideways

I had wondered what you did for a living!!!!!

 

[DJLWolf]

Good luck lads.

Fosun should be ashamed of themselves looking at that bench.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Can't have a bit of both on here! Maybe though it is all down to lack of options and we've asked too much of key players, so the number of injuries to those players looks like bad luck, but really it isn't, especially given Neto and Hwang's previous. Anyway we are where we are, it's frustrating not disasterous. Stadium WiFi too!

 

[Northampton_wolf]

People saying about fosun we are without 4 starting 1st teamers plus bellegarde as an option thats 5 players that hits any squad other than Liverpool and city

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Not expecting anything with current injuries up top! Thank goodness we are on the beach and won’t be going down

Even more credit to GON.

 

[crocos]

Well the Beeb seem to know how things will unfold:

"Aston Villa will reclaim fourth place with a draw at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers later on Saturday."

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Good luck lads.

Fosun should be ashamed of themselves looking at that bench.

Would you be saying that if we were in Forest or Evertons position?
We have spent the cash in last few seasons now we have to play with what we have
Of course we would all have liked more players but i think most understand why we havent
