Stevo985 Posted August 8, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2017 I imagine this will be like Luton last season. We'll play a lot of fringe players and probably struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BOF Posted August 8, 2017 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2017 I don't think we should be resting anyone at this stage of the season unless they're nursing an injury. There's far more benefit to continuing to try and get the team gelling. I would hope Bacuna will be dropped for Hourihane, and maybe Bree to get a run-out for Hutton, but I'd be disappointed if this was treated as a game for a majority B-team, and I don't expect it will be. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevonVilla Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 How nice would it be to go out and win 3-4 nil instead of going out and "doing a Villa". I am slightly more optimistic tonight, hoping Hourihane and Hogan start and link up well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carewjust4u Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 We will play, we will win, people will criticise Bruce, and the world will keep turning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyVillans Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Steer Bree Samba bedeau Amavi Hayes Hourihane Green Onomah Thor Hogan Start hogan in the hope he scores for confidence boost. Not sure if amavi will be in squad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 We need to go quite strong. We have to win. I'd rest Terry and start Chester and Samba. Also Bree deserves a chance. Can't see Amavi being involved. Hourihane Green Hogan need to start. I'd go Johnstone Bree Samba Chester Taylor Whelan Hourihane Lansbury Elmo Hogan Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) Johnstone, Taylor-Samba-Chester-Bree, with Thor-Lansbury and Hourihane in the middle with Gabby, Green and Hogan up top. I would start Lansbury and Hogan as they need a goal, and Hourihane as he is used to this level of football. I don't believe in resting goalkeepers unless they are completely off form.

The Fun Factory Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Am I correct in thinking the last time we beat a side in a cup match in 90 minutes was WBA in March 2015? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNortonAVFC Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Johnstone Bree Chester Samba Taylor Onomah Hourihane Adomah Lansbury Green Hogan Think it would be good to keep rotation to a minimum, give Lansbury and Hogan another chance to build some kind of relationship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skills Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 will be a relatively strong team in tonight... I think it will be: Johnstone Hutton Samba Chester Taylor (amavi if hes not being sold) Elmo Whelan Onomah Green Bjarnason Hogan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 We will rest a few with 3 games in 8 days coming up and I ‘d be very surprised if Terry or Whelan start. I think we will go something like: Steer Bree Chester Samba Taylor Thor Hourihane Onomah Elmo Hogan Green Expecting us to go through comfortably and win by 2 or 3 goals with hopefully Hogan getting at least one to get him off the mark for the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
