Grealish

No doubt about it, this is going to be tough. However if we can get to the 2nd leg drawing, one behind or possibly even two behind, then we have a chance of turning it around at the end of January with a few new signings at a packed out Villa Park.

Looking forward to it and I will be there fully behind the team as always. Keep the faith.

Good chance to test someone else at LWB. Guilbert maybe with Elmo over at RWB. Be better than Taylor.

Honestly don't know what to do.

If we go full strength, new formation and all, we could still take an absolute pasting. Then again, I've just remembered we've got City at the weekend anyway. Just don't think it'd be good for confidence to get a whipping in the cup as well. 

Ideal world, we go strong a get a good result. I think that's how Smith's brain works.

Why wouldn't we just play Targett?

Presuming he's not fit that is. Thought he was still injured?

We can't have Taylor on the pitch at all if we want to win points.

If Targett isn't fit I personally would go with a back 3 (or back 5) of;

                          Nyland

         Konsa    Chester    Mings 

Guilbert                                          Hause

 

Even if he is fit, I'd still be tempted by this. Think Chester was probably our best player on Saturday and looks to be returning to match fitness.

Given the above and the fact we're away from home against a good side, that bit of extra experience (with the pace of Mings & Konsa each side to hopefully take care of Vardy) might give us a more solid look about us?!

Need to get back to Villa Park with the tie not out of hand, and then who knows.

This is basically what I'm hoping for.

3-4-3 but put Targett in for Taylor, and Conor for Nakamba. Rest keep the same.

Nakamba closest we have to a DM. Conor is horrific in that role. Classic example Forest scoring 5 in the 5-5. Conor was all over the shop
