I highly doubt Elmo will start, that would be catastrophic, Cash is back now so he'll go back in the side. I'd imagine Traore and Sanson over Trez and Ramsey. If he picks that team I'd be a bit worried tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s back and will be in the side today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 No way Elmo plays instead of Cash. Not the game for Ramsey who has been ineffective for the most part.

That's just what i think he'll pick I was confused why Cash didn't start against Newcastle too, but I'd be shocked if he wasn't in tonight. He's much better than Elmo and Smith should know that. It's important he gets the selection right tonight, but like you I get confused by the team selections at times. For me Ramsey is still learning at this level and should be only coming off the bench in a team like ours (would choose Sanson, Nakamba and even Barkley over him for this one), and Trez just lacks any kind of quality going forward. I'm pretty sure Traore will be in though as Smith namechecked him as available in his press conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCollins29 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Really hoping that if no jack, those squad players stepping up realise this is theor last chance to stake a claim and pull out a couple of worldie performances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-R Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I think with the Injury's this is a game is like to see Barry brought in and see what he can do with our first teamers, what we got to lose, were already messed up anyway with injuries and the game looks a tough one for us lol.

Thought Traore was injured, don't have much confidence in our other Wingers if Traore and Grealish are out, I'd fetch Barry in.

Vive_La_Villa Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I think only chance we have is to try and nick a goal from a set piece and then park the bus. If they score first it’s over. I’d take a point right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith said: "Bert has had an injection and will train tomorrow (SAT). He should be available. He got a whack in the rib, took a tumble over the billboards and was in a lot of pain. He went to hospital but thankfully there is no bleed and he's just had painkillers for it." If Traore can't play I'd actually be tempted to play Barkley on the right and AEG on the left. Trez is just so ineffective and runs into blind alleys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're playing against a Spurs side without Son, Kane should be knackered after playing 120 mins on Thursday in Croatia, they have Mourinho in charge who is not exactly renowned for playing scintillating football, they've just lost 2 on the bounce, there are divisions in the dressing room, I could go on. I'm pretty negative re Villa myself but to say we're incapable of getting something is quite odd, almost like accepting a defeat before ko. We're not in great form and still without our talisman, but I expect them to believe they can get something from this game and play like they can too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 If Grealish is out again, all I ask for is a good performance. It's just absurd how crap we look most of the time without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t think we have any creativity at the moment. A draw would be a decent result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember all the comments in January of not wanting to sign anyone as we had an amazing first 11. That all seems to have fizzled out in recent weeks with lack of confidence now on here we can even get a point off Spurs missing one of their best players and in last 3 months we've actually won more league games than they have (7 to 6 since mid December). Hopefully in a years time there's much more confidence going into games which Grealish isn't around for but shows how much more work we have to do to get a top 7 worth 11 and squad. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
