We will lose and all will be rosy in the wenger garden
Seriously though we will pish all over this villa team - I know that in the past we have struggled with motivation in games like this but the villa team nowadays is absolute shit and if we dont win saturday then every employee of the club right down to the tea lady should be sacked on sunday morning. That being said we were the launch pad for winless norwich to get their season going so.....
Win, lose or draw you'll find HighburyJD in the away end proudly displaying his ticket for Olympiakos. Look out for the orange anorak and you might even be lucky enough to hear about his 4 day round trip to get there include a donkey trek from Macedonia
Anyway back to the game - 1-1.
A little bid jaded after our efforts against Montpellier but still firmly in contention for the Virtual Trophy
Cazorla looked knackered yesterday, not surprising given he's played just about every minute apart from LC AND travelled to Panama and back last mid-week. Keeping him on for 88 mins or whatever was crazy, should have been off when the second went in, if we don't have enough to see Montpellier off from 2-0 up then there's no point risking players' fitness in that competition anyway!
I'm concerned that the Handbrake Factory have just received a substantial order to be delivered to the West Midlands region on Saturday evening.

So that may benefit us.
Or it may even benefit Villa.
Or it may make absolutely no difference.
I think the last option is the most likely
As long as the whole Villa sob story about how they were badly treated at City doesn't get into the ref's head (do we know who we've got for this one?), we should be fine for a draw at least

Can confirm 'special circumstances' handbrake order has been received.
Villa are a work in progress to the point of getting themselves relegated. We simply have to turn these over but we'll probably piss about and start shooting in the 92nd minute.
