Especially with the amount of games we've got. Yep, bench is the follow-up discussion. I was concentrating on the first team. That's what was most important first and foremost. There are no weak links in our strongest side now. No more Bacunas or Huttons in our best case scenario. And with some ins and outs rumoured between now and the end of the window, I'm confident the bench and the 11 will look even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jedi and Tshibola should be switched so Jedinak can break up play and allow Tish to do his box-to-box thing. Other than that, I am incredibly excited for the rest of this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wasn't really sure where they best fit into a shape, and if I was being critical of that side, all of the front 4 operate better centrally so we do kind of lack natural width. But I'm sure RDM & Clarke will figure it out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with one injury (Tshibola) we're faced with the possibility of playing Gardner, I'm confident we'll get another CM though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will bring strength and unity to our midfield not seen for years. If he is a flop I will publicly ridicule myself on VT.... Would you go as far as describing him as "The Chosen One"? Because that didn't work too well in Star Wars... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this aswell, for me Jedinak sits in front of the back 4 as an enforcer, letting the younger more athletic Tish to do the leg work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedinak and Tshibola the wrong way round (as has been mentioned) plus playing Gestede with no width? No thank you. If we play that formation, I'd use either Ayew or McCormack up top, shift Grealish into the position of whichever one goes there and then bring Westwood in to the midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) That is a cracking starting 11 Although I'd love for us to get a right midfielder/winger and just play two of Ayew/McCormack/Gestede up top.

Haha well my next post a few minutes after this one said i was having a bit of a laugh. I'll be getting the strip. Having my national captains name on a Villa shirt is about as good as it gets for me. Just hope Tony has had a word to merchandising as they are usually bang average at getting stuff out to oz. Very costly too.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
