Narrowing the pitch is a bit OTT, but not watering is reasonable/uncontroversial, and it does make a difference. Recent Aberdeen/Celtic game was very even, Rodgers talked about the dry pitch, saying they couldn't play their normal, slick-passing game. Villa will have 75% of the ball.
Ken what, you've got a point, Maybe I was a bit knee jerk in my reaction, as you say it's not unknown for teams to keep the pitch dry to hamper the progress of a slick passing team .. knowing our luck it will piss down just before kick off and take that option away anyway
