Joe Cole showing absolute commitment to refusing to do even the most basic of research before going on TV in front of the nation.

 

Aye fair play to Crouch for calling Isak's behaviour out for being what it is. Cole basically saying "people need to understand, this is the advice he's getting etc."

Captain...

Hipgrave decked out in full sci-fi TV show gear. 

[Toonpack 15610]

We're not coming off 3 games in a week, or whatever it was, like the last time so defence should at least be more cohesive.

[Ayatollah Hermione 17238]

Must say, I’m worried about Watkins running us ragged again and it’s a strong Villa midfield considering they were apparently down to bare bones according to people yesterday. I’d have been tempted to put Thiaw in if he’s quick

[OTF 10615]

We've also got the old Foxtel Aussie crew back including Adam Peacock who is a Newcastle supporter.

Aye was thinking the same. He hasn't had the chance to train much with his teammates, but he can run fast in a straight line quicker than Burn or Schar.

If we play a high line we’ll get beaten convincingly. Tindall didn’t react to this last season.

[Ayatollah Hermione 17238]

I did manage to forget that Howe was sidelined for this one last year  And it also came at the end of a three game week where we basically had to play the same XI off the belt so fingers crossed things are different today 

[OTF 10615]

Again with the green shirts.

[ewerk 39255]

Thank fuck there were no dickheads in the away end tempted to disrupt Jota’s minutes silence.

[OTF 10615]

McGinn accepting his role as pantomime villian

[OTF 10615]

And now has just fallen on his arse

[OTF 10615]

Huge chance there, possibly should have squared for Gordon

[Gemmill 63272]

Fuck, should have scored. 

[Renton 27796]

Should have scored. Murphy would have.

 

Nice though.

[toonotl 4691]

Is Barnes not fouled there? Ok. Whatever. 

[toonotl 4691]

Definitely should’ve scored though. Poor effort really. 

[Duffman 189]

Already Schar?  

[OTF 10615]

Schär head injury ✅

[ewerk 39255]

Schar getting the head injury in there nice and early.

[Ayatollah Hermione 17238]

We playing on an ice rink here?

[OTF 10615]

Nice ball Barnes, nothing to say about the header...

[toonotl 4691]

Gordon still hasn’t learned to head a ball. Should’ve scored. Never looked likely. 

[Renton 27796]

Headbands back in fashion I see.
