Villarreal not having a good pre-season and there's also this...

 

[NikkiCFC 7,563]

2 draws and 3 losses. Villarreal is really bad this pre season. Pau Torres at Olympics. 

We have to take this trophy.

8 certain starters: Mendy, Rudiger, Alonso, CHO, Kante, Kovacic, Ziyech, Havertz.

Pulisic or Werner is dilemma.

And we used Chalobah and Zouma these past couple of games but this game is 12 days after Chris and Azpi started pre season so I think and hope they should start here.

[Magic Lamps 11,446]

Ironic, Villareal prepared for this super cup like they would for a CL final. Started preseason 6 weeks ago, played 8 friendlies, 2 vs English teams and 4 with teams who can play 3atb...

Will still be a steep challenge for us despite their poor form... they are miles ahead in fitness and conditioning, they have been playing with almost their full group all the time and it is their chance to win only their 2nd ever trophy... we should not take this lightly they will be super hungry. I think their poor pre-season form is just like our poor form ahead of the CL final, all concentration goes into this fkin game.

It was clear month ago when they reached final they will miss first 2 games. Silva as well. Other players are in better physical shape.
