Whelan will start tomorrow IMO with Green definitely on the bench and McGinn most likely on the bench too. Probably the only changes will be Axel in for Elphick and a switch at goalkeeper.

alreadyexists Posted August 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2018 I would probably go: Nyland Hutton Tuanzebe Chester Taylor Jedinak Grealish Hourihane McGinn RHM Kodjia I really hope Nyland is good! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted August 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2018 I hope so too, and I believe he is. Mainly because of his hair-cut and jaw-line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 5 hours ago, PieFacE said: I completely disagree with the "don't change a winning team" sentiment. I think it caused us a lot of problems last season and I would have liked to have seen more rotation. Personally, if I was Bruce, I'd kinda create 2x first 11s. One for home games where we're expected to have a lot of the ball, and one for away where we counter attack a lot. My approach to the game against Wigan would be different to how we played against Hull. I agree, just don't think the second game it's all that crucial. Yeovil on Tuesday in the cup is a good chance to blood the second string. Then Brentford on Weds in between Ipswich and Reading. Time for rotation a bit then maybe. Still, Steer has gone so that's one change. Jedinak has recovered from illness so I wouldn't be surprised to see him come in either tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Nyland in for Steer is the obvious change. McGinn in for Whelan? Tuanzebe for Elphick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I would go for the following Nyland Elmo Chester Tuanzebe Hutton Whelan Hourihane Grealish Adomah Green Kodjia McGinn to come off the bench, dont see how you can fit him Hourihane and Grealish in the same team without reducing our attacking players which are kind of a must especially when playing at home. Think he'll be used to rotate/put pressure on Hourihane's place in the starting 11 but we'll see, hopefully both are so good you can't leave them out. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyrusr Posted August 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2018 I suspect we will see: Nyland Hutton Chester Elphick Taylor Whelan Hourihane Grealish Elmo Adomah Kodjia With a bench of: Moreira, Tuanzebe, Jedinak, Bjarnason, McGinn, Green, Hepburn-Murphy I don't see Bruce dropping Elphick or Adomah and don't expect him to start Green - probably protecting though I would have though Wigan would be a good game for him to start (although he might hold him for Yeovil). Reckon we will struggle for first half as they will sit back, then McGinn and Green come on for Whelan and Adomah and realise that we don't have to play with a Defensive Midfielder every game... What I would prefer to see is: Nyland Elmo Chester Tuanzebe Hutton McGinn Hourihane Grealish Adomah Green Kodjia With a bench of: Moreira, Elphick, Whelan, Jedinak, Bjarnason, Lansbury, Hepburn-Murphy Not happy with bench though. All central players, no width. But this may be more long term - it depends on how much faith Bruce has with the new players. The certain one to start is Nyland given Steer has been moved on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Can see this being a very tough game. 1.0 villa, which will do me. Not many tickets left for this. Not sure if they will open the upper tier of the trinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2018 McGinn surely on the bench, maybe we'll see him for Hourihane or Whelan on 70 mins. Nyland straight in, and probably Tuanzebe also on bench making a late appearance. All in all a decent bench for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted August 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) We must get a partner for Chester at CB... I'm not confident with Tuanzebe. Edit: Or Elphick obviously... Edited August 10, 2018 by AVTuco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_82 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Tough game tomorrow, I would like to see Green come into the team especially with us being at home and maybe keep Mcginn for a sub appearance 2-1 Kodjia and a Grealish rocket in front of the holte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Signing new players, keeping jack, beating Hull, England smashing India- it is been a good week! Just finish it off with another win Villa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 My team would not be changed much, you don't change things that ain't broken. --------------------Nyland----------------- Hutton-----Elphick--Chester-Taylor Elmo-----Hourihane--Whelan-Adomah ---------------------Grealish------------------------ --------------------Murphy-------------------------- Kodjia was simply shocking in the opening game and shouldn't go anywhere near the starting 11. Nyland is an international and played in Europe so should be the obvious choice after Steer's loan deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
