Would love nothing more than Spurs getting anything tonight.

But Ange has already said he’ll be resting “key players”.

They’re absolute rubbish when the key players are playing, so I don’t see anything other than Villa battering them.

Maybe the players that come in do well, but with how results have gone for us the last 6-8 weeks, I’m anticipating a heavy win for Villa I’m afraid.

Just read the quote, I wonder if they get any pressure from the league to field a proper team. There is technically a rule saying you've got to field your best team and they've moved the game back too. Really they should've played these games in midweek so that there was more chance of them playing a proper team. I'm sure Mick McCarthy got in trouble a while back for this. Does seem a bit of a joke really, although Spurs did rotate their CBs against us at HT so we got an OK off them.

Oddly I think Man Utd may get something at Chelsea. Villa are going to smash Tottenham though.

If we can win Sunday, then potentially there could be 1 or 2 points separating Newcastle, Villa, ManCity, Chelsea and Forest going into the last game.

It is not beyond the realms that either Villa, Newcastle or Man City don’t win their last game.

If we can win on Sunday there is still a fair chance IMO.

Shouldnt be really, you play whatever team suits your needs. 

That said, i dont know if anyone was interested enough to notice but my bro in law is Hibs fan and he was fuming Celtic played all the kids/squad players vs Aberdeen who they we're in a battle for 3rd with - Celtic won 5-1. 

Different league / standards but you never know i suppose.

Spurs are a bit of a bogey team for Villa!

Not with the team Spurs have put out. Likely be 11 changes for the final. They have no chance

[ozzyten10]

Yes - villa should blow that team out the water. I’m still holding out hope though- Spence and Johnson to the rescue- combine for a last minute equaliser/winner!!!!

[pennhillred]

Be very (happily) surprised if Villa don’t win by at least 4.

Crazier things have happened though. I think I’m just doom and gloom because of our form and seemingly every result (bar maybe 1 or 2) going against us for about 2 months

Still, come on Spurs. Urgh. Come on United. Even bigger ugh.

This isn't the one but then didn't think Man City v Southampton was the one so who knows.

Man Utd have played their complete first team for the Chelsea game. I know who I'm supporting on Wednesday now.
