Aston Villa (A) Build Up and Matchday Thread

[Carrotdude]

Kind of expected it, keep it tight for an hour and hopefully be 1-0 up and bring Neto and Traore on to terrify them for half an hour.

Villa dropped McGinn and theoretically playing with 2 forwards. Anyones guess on the formation mine would be 433 with Samatta on the right and Grealish on the left. Could be a Watford last season 4222 I suppose

 

[Del Woppio]

No less confident in the win, but from an entertainment pov I'm gutted we've not gone 343. It'd be really nice to give someone a bollocking

 

[Tom Hark]

I hope I'm not tempting fate here, but I really fancy us to take these apart.

4-3-1-2 with Grealish roaming behind Davies and Samatta

Matt Targett is going to be shitting it about our first substitutions.

Hang on, I’m not seeing Traore on the bench?

That means their full backs provide the width which plays into our hands on the counter

Is Traore on the bench then or not?

No obvious width so I reckon they're going to pack the midfield to try to stop us playing. With two up top and Grealish somewhere I think they'll be pressing high and hard too.

The longer this game goes on the more advantages we get.

BT had him on the bench I am sure.

Tim -

A few websites are listing Terry Taylor on the bench instead of Traore. I can see the similarities but that's a malicious mistake ignore it.

 

[AndyWolves]

Britney saying Taylor on the bench is an error.

PA probably made a booboo and all other channels are getting their feed from PA

1 goal wins this I think

Yep. Like a few other people I'd like to go 343 from an entertainment POV, but I'll take 1-0
