Dugout Discussion

Tuesday Dugout Discussion

With the rest of the footballing world tuning in to the occasion at the Nou Camp tonight, the Dugout Discussion opens with it’s eyes firmly fixed on the remaining fixture from double Gameweek 35. It’s not glamorous, it’s Aston Villa versus Bolton Wanderers in a relegation scrap. The team news is in…

Villa XI: Given, Hutton, Cuellar, Baker, Lichaj, Albrighton, Herd, Warnock, N’Zogbia, Heskey, Weimann.

Bolton XI: Bogdan, Steinsson, Wheater, Ream, Ricketts, Ryo, Reo-Coker, M Davies, Petrov, Eagles, Ngog.

Gabriel Agbonlahor misses out due to injury for Alex McCleish’s side, whilst David Ngog is recalled in place of Kevin Davies for the struggling visitors.

The Dugout Discussion is open and can be accessed right here, with Champions League chat still permitted.

    The bad news is that maybe English footy isn't what it once was.

    The good news is that Spanish footy doesn't seem to be, either.

      Barca have really lost it recently. Messi in particular has been poor compared to his usual standard. Barca really miss Villa up front.

    Probably should have captained Petrov ahead of Agbonlahor...

    This is amazing, the whole world knows by now that this ref was only assigned to put Barca through and uefa just doesnt care, they are outright cheaters and they have no problem with that.
