Which version of the ongoing Aston Villa themed circus will we see tonight then?

 

I'm going for the one where we take a first half lead, do sweet fa for the next 60 minutes and concede at least one late goal resulting in either a draw or a defeat.

If there is another version to choose from then its news to me!

We need to play 4-3-3. We haven't done it once yet but it's so obvious we need to do it.

 

                   Gollini
Bacuna - Elphick - Chester - Amavi
             Jedinak - Tish
                  Gardner
Ayew                                 Kodja
                  Rudy

 

Play that team and we win. Ayew and Kodja will be able to roam in and out of their wide positions.
The three in midfield will allow the full backs to push forward and put balls into Rudy
Football ain't difficult.

Grealish is not a midfielder.

I know chap, but I would sooner have him there as a type of play maker over Gardner or Westwood -  baring in mind only until Jednak is fit again.

                               Goaletinni (see what I did there?)

               Bacuna  Baker  Chester  Amavi

Adomah      Westwood     Jedinak    Tish     Lyden

                                  Kodjia

 

I would pack the midfield to bring some stability to this shit show of a team - hopefully meaning we wouldn't be under the cosh for extended periods. Or have 4 1 4 1 with Jedinak just sitting in front the back four. The balance of the squad is horrible and the lack of midfield options a travesty considering how much we've spent in the last 2 years.

It's a back 3 with Bacuna and Amavi as wing backs. I'm giving them extra responsibility to support the back 3 and play a secondary role as wide attackers. I rate them both a lot higher than our other wide options and I think it suits our strengths and what we have available.

If we are struggling for dynamism and drive from CM I would like to see Bacuna and Tshibola tried in a 2 man midfield with Grealish ahead of them in the creative role. I think it can work in a similar way that Bacuna and Gana worked vs Swansea last season.

For the love of McGrath use a 3 man central midfield!!!

It will mean that we use an individually inferior player, in place of one of our expensive strikers, but it doesn't matter.

We simply must get the balance right and stop us being overrun in midfield.

Honestly at the point where I don't care if it's Westy, Bacuna, Lyden, Gardner or someone from the U23, just play with 3 CM's in midfield.
