Comes to something when you're praying that Phil Jagieka remains fit, doesn't it?

 

[Gwladys Nights]

Can we all stop slagging off Martinez and Jagielka please. They're both boss.

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

No, not necessarily. That depends on other circumstances.

No, not at all is the correct answer. The winner gets a place in the final qualifying round (which is toss like)

Howard, Coleman (surely he is back after the break?), Browning, Jagielka, Baines, McCarthy (surely he's back too?), Besic, McGeady, Naismith, Pienaar (fit soon surely), Lukaku

No, there is one scenario where the winners can go straight into the group stage. If the winners of the CL finish outside of the top four/qualifying places of their league or something. Definitely one scenario. Anyway, we won't win it, haha.

What are the odds on us going down??

don't be daft!!!!!

 

[Elvis]

I think we need to chill a bit. We have 4 first team squad centre backs, 2 midfielders who have played there before for their previous clubs and an youngster (Browning). There are only so many players we need to carry. Whether they are good enough is another question.

 

[snipellis11]

I think Coleman still has concussion.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Gutted for the lad, gonna miss his long gangly recovery tackles.

 

[BlueToff]

I think Coleman still has concussion.

Martinez confirmed before the United game it was the classic 'soft tissue injury', mate. He'd done his hammy basically. Should be back for Villa but you never know with us.

Howard
Coleman Jagielka Alcaraz Baines
McCarthy Barry
McGeady Naismith Pienaar
Lukaku
​

Subs: Robles, Distin, Browning, Oviedo, Besic, Atsu, Eto'o

Expect this to be the team for Villa.

Shame for the lad, but it looked really bad when he came down on it..........

No Gibson? Would rather have Barry in at defence than Distin right now.

It's definitely his fault. Heard he was the one who did Barkley in training too!

Hilar but we've had about 5x more injuries since he's been here, plus he chose not to buy a centre half of cover for Seamus.
