sne Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) I'd make it a 4-1-4-1 maybe? With Elmo at RB, Jedi sitting deep behind Lansbury and Hourihane in CM and with Snodgrass and Thor on the flanks?

LancsVillan Posted September 12, 2017 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hmm would Sam Terry Chester Elmo Jedi Taylor Lansbury Hourihane Thor Snodders Davis be more like it and if so then I'm even more annoyed that Hogan isn't there as that team plays decent football for a running CF as opposed to a big hold up type 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, I've just realised that what i've said hints at Bruce actually having tactics in mind. Apologies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 My initial thoughts were a back 5 ..................johnstone .........Chester.Terry.Taylor Elmo.........Jedinak.......Bjarnesson ..........Lansbury.Hourihane ..................Snodgrass ......................Davis its the type of thing bruce would try! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junxs Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 So Bruce states in his post match interview after Brentford that Davis has been carrying a knock for a while, but then starts him just a few days later.. If he comes out after the match saying we are relying on an injured teenager up front then he needs a slap 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hogan and Adomah should be starting IMO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bojong Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Waiting to see the formation but the names on the sheet don't look too bad I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Just saw the line up, screams defensive, Bruce has obviously had enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obanken Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 What saddens me the most is that I am not looking forward to watching the matches anymore, but I know I will do it anyway, and I know that I will feel depressed after the match. There are just so many things wrong with the way we play, and the whole right back thing and Elmohamady just drives me crazy. Only thing which keeps my hopes up is only because I like Xia and believes he is the right man for our club. Have a feeling this is the last match for Bruce at Villa. Im off to put a bet on 0-3. And yes, Im fun at parties 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Jesus Christ what a line up. Davis is based and came off injured Saturday... so starts Tuesday Edited September 12, 2017 by StewieGriffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Bit concerned about that line-up up top to be honest. I think he has rushed big kodj back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) What is this shite. Is there a clause in Elmowankedy's contract that he has to play every game. Edited September 12, 2017 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claretman Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Load of arse. Has Adomah been caught shagging Bruce's wife? There seems no reasonable explanation why he isn't in that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan501 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Having kodge back makes no difference ge cant save bruce from the sack only bruce and his negative pathetic football changing to attacking fluent football can give him any chance of staying on. For what its worth i think bruce is playing 4-2-3-1 i think snod thor and hourihane playing behind davis so elmo right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Snodgrass looked unfit when he came on, Davis was apparently carrying a knock and kodja isn't fit. Whelan has been hit and miss but has played it to feet more than jedanik does. Lacking pace in adomha not playing or Hogan. No doubt adama downing and guestede will rip us a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
