Villa vs Baggies preview & all the transfer rumours are being laughed at
Tomorrow at 12.45 GMT (3.45 PST), Villa Park welcomes our local rivals, West Brom, to hopefully get shown a trick or two by a top four side. The game promises to be an exciting one, with us chasing a top four finish and West Brom fighting for survival, so both teams will be eager to start the year as they mean to go on.
Former Villan, the legend Paul McGrath, believes we have a side capable of turning them over with a convincing win. We go into the game as heavy favourites, sitting in fourth place whereas Baggies are the ’strongest’ team in the league, holding the rest up.
Curtis Davies and Luke Moore will both hope to start against their old clubs and they’d both love to see their name on the scoresheet too. Scott Carson will also be returning to the ground he called home for a year and will be out to keep a clean sheet.
McGrath thinks we can paste the Baggies and there’s positive vibes on the injury scene

It’s not just the Villa fans buzzing with the hope for the claret and blue future, there’s also ex-players bigging us up these days. When I refer to an ‘ex-player’, I don’t just mean some shit player who played once for us under David O’Leary, had a crap game and scored an own goal, no I am talking about the man many Villa fans refer to as God; Paul McGrath.
McGrath, a legend to Villans, reckons we will smash 4 past Scott Carson, our goalie of last season. He feels the challenge of our pace and skill will be too much for the Baggies to cope with on Saturday morning, a sentiment I have to agree with. Our strengths are exactly the kind that West Brom struggle with and if Ashley Young is on form, he will do a lot of penetrating into the ‘Bramich’ box.
