wilko154 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Looking forward to this one! I would go with: Johnstone Hutton Chester Terry Taylor Lansbury Whelan Elmo O'Hare Agbonlahor Hogan Drag Gabby off for Green when he inevitably fades in the second half Sure up the midfield bringing on Onomah or Hourihane when Whelan or O'Hare tire Think we could win this won 2-0 / 3-0 UTV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Hutton will be starting this one no question. Especially against Colin's Cardiff side. Only change from the Hull match will be someone in for Bacuna, hopefully Hourihane. Edited August 10, 2017 by Rodders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post markavfc40 Posted August 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2017 I'd imagine it will be same as against Hull but with Onomah in place of Bacuna. This will be a tough game and I'd imagine they will again try to bully us but with Whelan in the middle and Terry at the back I don't see that working and if it comes down to quality and ability we should have too much for them. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This will be really tough. I'd take a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Onomah should start alongside Whelan. Hopefully OHare on the bench. I think it'll be Johnstone Hutton Chester Terry Taylor Whelan Onomah Elmo Lansbury Gabby Hogan bench Steer Samba OHare Bree Hourihane Green Davis/Adomah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This be a battle no question. Warnock seems to have beef with us after we beat them at Villa Park. I am sure Bruce wont forget that game. Like Mark says the bullying they adopted last season won't work as we have some real warriors in the squad now. It will come down to quality 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nnock1984 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Based on the first two games, the team should be this: Steer Hutton Terry Chester Taylor Whelan Onomah Elmo Adomah Gabby Hogan O'Hare first man off the bench! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted August 10, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2017 This will be a horrible game. Warnock is a complete thug and we will be lucky not to get some serious injuries. I think Bruce will match him, perfect game for the likes of Hutton, Terry, Whelan, Lansbury, Gabby etc. I fear Onomah will get assaulted no end.

8pints Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Johnstone Hutton---Chester---Terry---Taylor Elmohamady---Whelan---Onomah---Green Hogan---Agbonlahor I'd like to see Green and Onomah start, the more minutes they get, the more experience and the better they'll get in my opinion Hopefully we keep the intensity up and drive forward keeping the ball. 2-0 Villa - Terry header and Hogan strike from inside the penalty box.

Reivax_Villa Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This is when the season really starts now. On paper we have better players but Cardiff will battle and match us in every way. If we can win this game ugly this will show us all that we have the mental toughness to see out this season. If we lose this game then its not the end of the world but what it will show is that SB still has a lot of work to do. The real question would be; Has Bruce done everything that he can? or is there more for him to do? Very interesting game, but for me. No Sky TV, no home supporters or big occasion. Our real Championship season starts in Cardiff this Saturday at 3pm against a proper Championship side. Come on Villa!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
