I think we will almost have our strongest 11 available for tomorrow apart from Johnstone and possibly Dacoure , shame the season is ending

Originally posted by cpfc001 Huhes will miss, Lerma is fit But may not start from the way Glasner phrased his response. Glasner doesn't rush returning players into the starting XI. I expect Lerma to come off the bench in the 2nd half. With Guehi back and likely to start after a couple of sub appearances, we might see Richards moved into midfield with Clyne at RCB. The other possibility is Ozoh although he had a tough match midweek against Jong PSV.

Originally posted by Gary St.Andrews Well Villa will be nursing a hangover after CL qualification and playing in sliders, so a 2-1 win for the bang in form side. Their last 8 visits to Selhurst, lost 7 drawn 1, so they get a bit homesick when they come here…. Villa fans seem to think they will sign Eze and Olise, dreamers…. Forgive me for not finding the exact quotes but in one of the usual BBC comments forum exchanges about Man City expenditure there was the understandable complaint from Villa fans, when it was pointed out that they were the 7th biggest spenders over recent years, that their spending couldn't continue at Villa at the same level because of the Financial Fair Play rules. Or is it Profit and Responsibility now? Basically the impression I got was they had maxed out on their losses - though to their credit they had spent well with a good manager. So they will get some extra money from the Champions League, though will need to qualify for the group stages I think, but will be still be restricted in their spending. Can anyone more knowledgeable confirm? I think Newcastle are in a similar position where despite untold riches backing them are going to have to sell to buy. I wouldn't think a one off season in the Champions League would swing it for either Olise or Eze to become a squad player at Villa. They obviously have a pretty good side already and 4th place next year is going to be even more competitive. Villa have Spurs to thank for imploding for this years qualification.

I don't have any facts - only press rumours. I've seen several headlines suggesting that Villa may need to sell a player this coming window in order to keep within PSR, so their signing Eze and/or Olise seems something of a pipe dream. There's a new format for the CL this coming season - the "Swiss System" or something like that which will guarantee every team 8 instead of 6 matches before the knock out stage. As for Spurs - well they did their usual Spursy thing.

Not that many supporters will take a blind bit of notice, but, here is the clubs advice/instructions for tomorrow . . . [Link] Have a great time HOLer's if your going, I'm in Menorca, so watching my way & not in a bar, actually they don't have many bars here, 4 open. Very Scottish, very family & very Jet2. Nice tho. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

There will be a few clubs treading a tightrope with signings for next season, Villa have done pretty well in the market, but I doubt they have the dosh for Olise and Eze….

Originally posted by Nicholas91 This has 5-4 written all over it as far as I’m concerned. Win - A real end of season party albeit tainted with the season ending whilst we’re on a run which makes us look like Champions let alone a decent outfit. Draw - Absolutely fine, end of season party still on and we remain unbeaten til the end (I almost laughed when Glasner said it) Loss - still a party, just a reality check, and even with the gossip merchants going into overdrive, potentially some departures of much loved players, we can still rest easily with nothing but excitement for next season. COYP What a time for donning red and blue eh? You were half right!
