    Solanke hasn't managed a shot on target in his last six games so he's surely due that today, and hopefully a goal as well. Our strikers in general really need to start stepping up, we're capable of scoring a decent amount of goals against disorganised or open sides but in closer encounters and rigid defences our strikers need to be the ones getting us over the line.

    Big game though, Villa have done us twice in a row at home so need to put an end to that and I feel like we really need a performance and result against a "good side" in the league. The Utd and West Ham wins were lovely but both have more/ bigger issues than us at the moment. Emery's Villa have established themselves as one of the sides to beat in the Prem these days, time to rise to that challenge.

    I've predicted a win for us, but really concerned we could be on the end of a big defeat if Villa are up for it. Saving grace is that we are home. :emoticon-0148-yes:
    Hoping for the best but prepared for the worst.

    If any of our lot get a straight red for a two footer on Cash, I hope they get a standing ovation.

    His most useful contribution to be honest. I'm really not sure what Rodrigo brings to the party now. He is even not fully commited to tackles - possibly a fallout from his injuries.

    He brings a valid reason to call for Bergvall to get more minutes

    Villa appear to have balance problems...and the ref is falling for it as much as they are falling...

    Classic Emery ball.

    I want Spurs to score solely so the commentators
    on my stream have to get off their knees and
    pull their panties up.

    Standard set piece leading to a goal conceded.

    I did comment accordingly :emoticon-0148-yes:
    But if we continue to defend as we do then frankly it makes no difference.
