He's been fit from before the International break and he'll have trained all through it and played against Wolves too (don't know if he played the full 90 though). He should be fit and raring to go.

He can't see it, Modo.
I know, I'm just clearing it up for you guys.
Whatever it is ..you're right ! I reckon it's what keeps me sane (well almost) in here.
Villa fans about the game:

They seem confident. Nothing to fear apparently. Funny though that they're disappointed that Johnson and Skrtel are out injured.

I'd love if Modo started every thread.
Oooh bitchy !
Planning on starting the match thread on Saturday. Poor the Froggy
And the great race starts...
Villa have targeted Gerrard the last 3 times they've played us. They stick Weimann near him and he peels off him every time they hit us on the counter. Gerrard's not quick enough to keep up, or disciplined enough to track him properly.
It'll happen again, they'll create chance after chance from getting into space in front of our back four.

I was saying something similar in the other thread, Villa have got our number there, but everyone assumed I was being a negative nelly. We really need to wise up to this, hopefully Gerrard will, otherwise Weinmann and Gabby will tear us apart again.
Training sessions and one practice match is great but starting a Premier League game is a different level altogether.
Was wondering why the Villa fans feared Mario. Looked it up:
2010/11 City 4 - 0: Mario - 3 goals, 1 assist
2010/11 City 3 - 0: Mario: 1 goal (FA Cup)
2011/12 City 4 - 1: Mario - 1 goal
2012/13 City 2 - 4: Mario - 1 goal (a.e.t., League Cup)
He didn't play in the rest of the games between the two teams. Guess Villa fans don't quite like him although it's not Suarez - Norwich stuff.

He started Balotelli with far less.
For this game I'd start him ahead of Gerrard. If Brodge has learned his lesson over the last 2 seasons of watching Villa waltz all over us, then he'll play Lucas too.
But he won't. He's far too close to Gerrard to drop him.
I'm looking forward to seeing Lallana in the side. Think he could make a massive difference for us this season (in a good way).
Anyone who thinks we'll walk all over Villa is gonna be wrong.
Villa won't be no pushovers.
But screw them.
3-1 win to us.

That's what I was thinking
When talking up Lambert BR hinted Lambert wouldn't start this game but would deffo play in the league cup. Either he's spreading misinformation, or more likely, given BR's sometimes OTT levels of candour on footballing matters, we won't see Lambert start.
