Mantis Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I just can't get over Bunn starting. It's **** ridiculous. The only thing I can think of is that Gollini has got a knock or was really bad in training or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chappy Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Surely Gollini hasn't done badly enough that Bunn should replace him??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Was happy with that lineup til I saw Bunn. Wtf Chance for Bacuna to prove himself in midfield. Don't think he's up to it, but prove me wrong Leo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Welp, he wasn't dossing about. But Bunn and no Tish smh. I think he is trying to send a message loud and clear though. We will not tolerate sub standard at any cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 18, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 18, 2016 Yup. I'm not sure this is a line up so much for today as a warning for the rest of the season to a number of players. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Pleased Mcormack is starting and Westwood and Gabby aren't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Wonder what Tish did to be so out of favour. Seems like a nice chap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Got a feeling McCormack will score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hopefully Ayew, Westwood and Elphick get the desired kick up the ass. Gabby is beyond saving at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 The first 10-20 mins will tell us a lot. I can remember the last time we flew out the blocks and dictated away from home. If we slip into a defensive mindset and can't string 4 passes together and gift QPR the ball then we ain't getting shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a defensive mindset and we struggle to string four passes together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I'll go 3-2 Villa. Kodjia and McCormack X2. Bunn error and a long range pile driver from my boy Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a defensive mindset and we struggle to string four passes together. I think your right we will sit back. I really feel that breeds our horrific passing. We are so quick to try and make something happen when we do have the ball that it gets turned over. RDM was far too much the other way. A healthy balance would be nice but I'd argue we don't have the players in midfield to that yet perhaps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 18, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2016 Bunn in there is odd, but apart form that I'm happy. Baker back in is a plus, Gabby rightly dropped (forever hopefully!). I still think Gardner is terrible but as Westwood is the other option it won't make much difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than wasting 60 minutes of a match Just go for it Brucie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted December 18, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2016 I think it's a 'wake up as no one is irreplaceable' kind of selection. If he'd stuck with Ayew, Gabby, or Elphick, or even Gollini, I think it would say that some are. Get the thumb out of your arses and put your brain in gear you numptees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 18, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 18, 2016 I agree alreadyexists - the question being whether we can get a result today while we teach a few the value of hard work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
