I forgot about Moireria- how many keepers have we bought or loaned in in the last 2/3 yrs? We could nearly field a starting XI of goalkeepers, probably missing one Moreira Bunn Johnstone Heaton Reina Martinez Steer Sarkic Kalinic Nyland Gollini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I’d go full strength, treat it halfway between a warm up and a competitive match. Could be a great opportunity for Watkins to get one or more goals and to boost the squad ahead of the first PL game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa94 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 we got to go close to full strength and win the game comfortably, how bad would it be to go out of the cup or even struggle against lower league opposition when our season starts next week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I think sky have been pretty clever in putting it on live, knowing it’s our first game of the season means people will make extra effort to watch it, plus some neutrals might keen to see how we look. I just wish I hadn’t booked a table out for me and the missus on the assumption that it wouldn’t be on the TV oops. Unlimited ribs and wings tho for £13, be rude not to! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powehi Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I'd go Steer Cash Konsa Hause Taylor Nakamba Lansbury Hourihane Trezeguet El Ghazi Samatta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbertoAVFC Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I don't really like the idea of playing a weak team. We have six days between this and Sheffield, who will have played a match more. Yes some people played 90 on Sat but does that really come into it? They need games, not nine-day rests. Would be disappointed if we don't go strong here. Seems counter-intuitive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I think in most seasons you would stick out a second team for this one. But because we haven't played a match I'd be tempted to put out a few of the first teams but only if they haven't been away for internationals. I'd go with: Steer Elmo Konsa Hause Taylor Marv El Ghazi Lansbury Luiz Trez Samatta I think the likes of Grealish, Mings, McGinn, Houruhane have been training hard and they should be up to speed for Monday next week. Would be nice to see Samatta, El Ghazi or Trez getting on the score sheet to boost some confidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USA_Villa Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Expect Grealish, Watkins and Cash to be in the starting line-up. All need minutes and we don't play for almost a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I'd love to see Ramsey get a start tomorrow. He looked head and shoulders above everyone in his short stint at Doncaster. He's gonna be ever further down the road now in his development. I hope we go with a mix of guys outside of contention for Sheffield United and ones we expect to start that game.

Thats a big assumption. I mean. I'm sure he would be perfectly happy getting his pay cheque for doing nothing, licence has done for the last.....3-4 years?

GingerCollins29 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Jota and henri will hopefully be nowhere near the first 11, so why play them at all? Steer Fred engels hause taylor Marv Connor sjm (sub on ramsey) Trez samatta aeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
