Aston Villa (A) 30/3: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Squeak]

The only good thing is Mr Asshole McGinn is out.

 

[Wolftone]

Id have thought H. Bueno in and RAN advanced.

Id have thought H. Bueno in and RAN advanced.

This is what I’d have done.

Looks like a 4-5-1:

................................... Sa

.................. Kilman - Santi - Toti

Semedo - Lemina - Gomes - Doyle - RAN

.............................. Sarabia

............................. Chiwome


Midfield battle will be key, and then getting Lemina, Sarabia and RAN up around Chiwome when we get hold of the ball.

That looks like a 3-4-1-1 to me..

 

[YoungWolf]

Could be a back four with RAN and Sarabia either side of Chiwome I suppose.

Can see why he’s gone for him up top over Fraser just for mobility reasons. Either way feel sorry for whoever gets chucked in there.

Worried they will exploit the gaps we leave whether it’s centrally or around Toti.

 

[The Bear]

Yeah don't know why I posted a 4 atb formation. I meant 3-5-2.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I hope it's the extra man in midfield and Sarabia in behind Chiwome rather than Lemina on the left

Agreed.

 

[Blakenhall Wolf]

Just shows we need some squad players, Che Adams doesn't seem a bad option all of a sudden.

All my family are Villa fans so just hope it's not silly score wise, as you may tell I'm not hopeful today

 

[AndyWolves]

Holy moley our bench is weak

He's an option, full stop. He'll probably be bad all things considered, but we need somebody.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Really nice moment for Chiwome's family.

 

[The Bear]

Doyle snapping away, good start from him.

 

[The Bear]

Good start

Ooh close.

 

[The Bear]

Was never worried there. Always well off

 

[AndyWolves]

Really nice moment for Chiwome's family.

Holman too, playing non league up until recently and now on a PL bench

 

[The Bear]

Oh my word RAN

 

[The Bear]

You just have to score those. No excuse.

 

[Jinky]

Absolutely dominating them. How has RAN not scored there?!

We will regret not taking a chance like that. Easier to score.

 

[Squeak]

Decent start but powder puff in attack. Getting lots of the ball....Ait Nouri thwarted....
