  1. IF Gerrard plays, we've always got a chance of scoring a penalty or freekick though :bandit:

    That chance is the same whether Gerrard is on the pitch or not.

    We will probably draw through lack of firepower but to have a realistic chance of top 4 these are games we should win.

  4. No one else can take a freekick or penalty <laugh> (I'm hoping Lambert and Balotelli aren't on the pitch)

    We took some great penos against Boro in that epic penalty shootout.

  6. Fair point <laugh>

    Haven't we missed the last three or four penalties that Gerrard hasn't taken...? I know Lambert and Sturridge have missed, I think Borini as missed one too but I could be wrong.

    Anyway, my initial comment was a piss take <ok>

    Haha I know but it is probably something the others players are thinking about.

    I don't know but I think Sakho and Can would both be good!

  8. I don't think either of them would get a chance. I reckon any of the forwards or Henderson would take the penalties. Henderson will get freekicks like he has when Gerrard's been missing this season.

    The Villa fans are planning some daft protest, which is bound to unsettle the home side from the off and prove to be completely counter productive.

    It was earlier in the thread, the idea was to turn up 8 minutes late. Lambert was all <wah> in his press conference.

    I don't blame him, it's an idiotic idea.

    Imagine the lift it'd give you lot seeing an empty stadium barring your own fans for the first 8 minutes and what conversely it'd do to the home side?

    Leave protests outside the ground or until after the game has finished.

    If it was just LFC fans singing YNWA making it feel like a home game, plus a fast start can be crucial

    If we happened to score in those 8 minutes it could then be game over

    Yeah can you imagine walking in at 10 mins only to find your team 2 or 3 nil down?

  14. Yeah but why eight minutes, why not ten...?

    It is the number of years Randy Learner has been in charge of Vila. They are protesting his ownership.

    I have a bad feeling about this game. We should walk all over them. And we are strong favourites especially as their team and their fans are in disarray. If we score an early goal we are safe. But if they score an early goal, I can see them gaining a lot of confidence and momentum.

    If Benteke targets Skrtel - then we're f*cked.
