    I'm still trying to find meat alternatives to most vegetables. How hard can it be to make a sausage look like Brocolli.

    Have you tried the 'Beyond' sausages and burgers? Bloody expensive, but really really good.

    Probably still easier than trying to find somewhere to park round there (where your car will still be in one piece when you go back to it!)

    I hope it isn't a full tear. I went a good 10 years sprinting up and down the pitch, then did my hammie playing cricket. I know footballers have excellent physiotherapy but one tear and you never quite regain that burst of acceleration.

    Shame about Sarr, but some better news is that Welbeck could return (probably on the bench for Tuesday)

    We scored 26 goals in the second half of last season though when we didn't even have Sarr and despite Pereyra being crap.

    Hopefully Gray's now near-uselessness even as an impact sub will be compensated for by Pereyra recapturing his 2018 form.

    Sarr will never play for us again. Out for the season with injury and signed for arsenal in the summer.

    No chance, Villa are shocking and we're now playing to the level of a top 6 team. We'll demolish Villa and be 4 points off relegation. Attention will then start being drawn to whether we can catch up with that last European spot.

    Hope you're right but the picture you paint is by no means certain. First goal will be vital. Don't want the crowd getting behind them.

    Not sure we’ll play like a top 6 team without Sarr though...

    Sure, we’re favourites. But it’ll be closer than it would have been without Sarr’s injury.

    Losing Sarr is obviously a blow but it's only one player and it's not just all about him. In fact his finishing is awful. I imagine Pereyra will come in to replace him and Pussetto will be on the bench but I guess will play at Tranmere which will be any eye opener for him! Good to hear Welbeck back in contention. It would be a bonus to have him back for the rest of the season. Wouldn't think there will be any changes apart from that, maybe Kabasele coming in but if they haven't got much pace up front I would leave it as it is. I know there are a lot of games left but this could be the one that defines what division we will be in next season. A win and it will go a long way to us being safe but a loss would be very damaging.
    2-1 to us

    Star city is free and plenty of space, but it is a 30min walk to the ground.

    "The return of Welbeck would offset the absence of Ismaila Sarr"

    No it wouldn't Mr Affleck.

    The Sarr injury, whilst a big blow, just means we have to find another way to win.

    If I was Pearson, I'd start Joao Pedro...let him go out and express himself.

    Not sure he's quite ready yet to be honest. Will almost certainly start at Tranmere though.

    Have a feeling Pereyra will come in for Sarr.

    Perreyra will definitely come in for Sarr but he'll just phone it in. He won't put his body on the line for the team as he doesn't want an injury scuppering a move in the summer.

    However, I think Pedro would be an something to keep Villa guessing.
