Aston Villa v Newcastle United Match Thread (Sat 23)

Right. Come on lads. Dont feck this up please. These are shit.
Lets not make it hard for ourselves. No silly fouls please. Especially in shooting distance.
Nice fast passing. Hussle. Battle. And dont be scared to shoot from 20plus yards please.
Thanks.
 
Luiz and Marv can’t let us down with the pressing high, if that’s how we play. They need to shift up, if Ollie, Jack and Ross are pressing high the unit needs to step up or even Newcastle could find the triangles to play it out. I’ve just got a horrible feeling the first half is going to be a dull stalemate and we’ll end up having to bring on attacking options to try and win the game risking getting caught. Playing one of he more attack minded players than marv and leaving Dougie where he’s so good would’ve been much scarier for the barcodes, I bet they’re relieved.

Anyway, it could be a genius move and nothing to panic about - Smith sees them in training so I’ll have to trust his judgement.
