    This just proves to me that the fixture list needs sorting out too many games in quick session its a joke stupid sky times need to go everyone should play at the same time once on sat then cup games on wed gives teams time to recover not a game every 48hours stupid no wonder players are out

      Agree some of their ko times beggar belief. Who the fuck in their right mind wants to see a game on sat at 5.30 Ffs. Completely fucks the day up another reason I don’t buy a st. Sunday games should be 5 not 4 then don’t have to rush back to watch sat 12.45 rarely around to watch to many better things to do and only watch when villa play. Much better when all games where sat 3pm or 7.45 on a wed. It’s totally unfair as teams in relegation or title/CL contenders can suffer a huge disadvantage. Imagine if we were seriously pushing for fourth and upsetting the status quo they would have the power to make sure we play at the worst times to fuck us over.

    Is Gardner definitely a long term injury again (or still)? I was hoping he’d be back fit by now, that’s what we were being told.

    Agree about the fixtures list – cramming the Chelsea game in was a bit of a joke and surely put us at a disadvantage to other teams.

      I don’t think it does disadvantage us Wev got that game out the way and played them before they got in their rythm and beat us 8.0 again. Also outlet players will have a rest when everyone plays game in hand.

    well spurs have got just as much to deal with, they’ve got 3 games in 10 days although admittedly they’ve got ‘slightly’ better strength in depth than us.
    certainly looks like we’ll be getting to see something of hellenius and sylla then and a few others.
    spurs looked very decent against Cardiff, the Cardiff keeper played a blinder, could’ve been 4/5 nil.
    I think we may be in for a few lean days ahead at VP the next few days with the visit of man city following spurs. maybe they will approach the games too confident and we can stick it up em but anything out of the next 2 games will be a massive achievement.

    Can’t see anything other than a Spurs win, it will be a case of how many we let in.
    There was a time that playing Spurs was something you could look forward too : /

    I’m looking forward to it, especially if Helenius gets a look in. I have a feeling he could become a first team player, if only he’s given a chance. Like Kozak and Benteke he’s tall, good at corners and has excellent placement of the through ball, both of which we saw in pre-season. I’d hazard a guess at Tonev on left wing, Wiemann on right, Kozak in the middle, Helenius behind, Sylla to the right and probably Delph to the left. Please please please not KEA. Sylla looks better and needs game time. Plus he is going to want to impress.

    What’s Boas moaning about, he’s tell the papers its an unfair advantage, Rose, is out and Defoe groin strain might not make it, he’s paid all that money has players in depth can pick two sides if he wants and still moans.

      It’s apparently unfair that we’ve had an extra day to recover and the schedule is all wrong. Cardiff on Sunday and us today, it’s not exactly Arsenal (away), Chelsea (away) and Liverpool (home) in a week, is it?

      Such a shame about Gardner being injured. He needs to be playing and we all need to see what he can do. Aside, that is, from scoring stunning free kicks.

      It’s all psychological bollocks gk make us think we are favourites to put pressure on us. Though lambert has responded well saying city match us the priority and we will rest players. Fair play

    Quite right Adam2231, that what was on my mind , I should have said that in my first post, always the same top flight clubs cannot do wrong , but if they don’t like they moan. Even so they can still put better side out than us.
