Do Spurs have the most aggressive press in Europe? And is it still the most aggressive press if they change most of their team? We really don't do well against high tempo press high up the pitch, so should be interesting.

In Europe ? Is that why they've had such a great start to their season. There manager is under pressure already

Think they will play a strong side as its a chance of them winning a trophy as there never getting in the top four this season.I would play Bassette with BTA up top.

The likelihood is we will lose and the odds are stacked against us .. that's not negative that's the reality of the game tonight .

Being positive is hoping we can get a result , even our percieved second string is quite strong on paper so it's not like we will be playing u21 players .

The point about playing full strength twice in 4 days is a pretty valid one

We often play twice in 4 days though.

If he puts a second string out, will be disappointing.

They are going to want a chance of silverware so will want to get the game won as soon as they can. We can't put a reserve side out and give them a head start.

Got a feeling we’re going to get absolutely whalloped tonight. Would take a plucky one goal loss.

Think it depends on how we lose. If robins basically throws the game like he has done in the past in this cup after charging so much for tickets. It will be a piss take.

I see the good luck message from Coventry City Council on Twitter has gone down as well as expected.

Now me, I'm always more confident against the big teams. Not saying we'll win but I never expect us to get thrashed.

Don't want it to go to penalties as, obviously, we're not very good at them.

Speculation about the line up again like before Saturday. The usual inference that it's set up to lose by the usual people. It's tedious lads.

Get used to it because Robins even said tonight is a free hit.

I remember the song from back in the day. Football didn’t start until ‘92 these days though.

Villa seem to be OK with Premiership 5.30 Saturday kick offs and Tuesday away in Switzerland in the champions league with virtually the same team. Surely the team do less physical training to account for 3 games a week

That’s not what free hit means?

A game against a top premier league side will always be a free hit because you can’t expect anything from it. Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t play our strongest side.

Only thing I’ll be disappointed with is an absolute thumping.

Far bigger fish to fry on Saturday.

Not been on SBT all day, so no idea of any rumoured line ups (either side), injuries, ticket sales or other moans.

But it’s been a long day and despite the fact I know we’re likely going to lose, I’m now pretty bloody excited.

Just want to see us give a good account of ourselves and give them a game.
