It's competitive now and that's a good thing. Smith seems to of loaded up his bench with midfielders. Fortunate that Watkins can go left if Trezeguet has a mare and bring Davis on. It's a position we need to be looking at strengthening now and not be reactive if Grealish leaves. Cantwell be a great addition. Cheap too last summer. Not so much now.

robby b Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Sanson starting at last! Really hope he plays well but if he doesn't and isn't in the starting lineup for the next game, well at least he'll have been given the chance that I think he deserved, given our poor recent form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll play like the player being liked to top clubs again for a one off today guaranteed. "better than grealish" by 8pm tonight guarantee it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Hopefully thr right game for sanson, Moutinho isn't a crash bang wallop 100mph PL player so it's a better match up and a good test for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Trez or Traore be on the left? I'd have thought it'll be Trez on the left today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we played Davis up front i could sort of understand it. That's just silly. You are making out we have no ball in the games we are playing and just going long. You know that isn't true. We've out played lots of teams this season and played some great stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering his form, I very much doubt he's been dropped from the squad because an uncapped teenager signed a new contract! The fact we haven't heard anything means it's probably an injury from training so hopefully nothing too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have been 20-30 mil last summer. They weren't going to sell anyone for less than what maddison cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Yep, like it. I thought maybe Sanson wasn't ready but big chance today. Right call to drop nakamba and Ramsay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robby b Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I didn't even know Trez could play on the left wing. Anyway, hope he gets his first league goal of the season today! The first for Luiz would be very welcome too, asap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only players who have been consistently good since grealish went out are el ghazi, martinez, Mings and konsa. We aren't going to drop the attacking player.

Vive_La_Villa Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Happy with the line up. Should give us energy in the middle as well as being able to keep the ball better. I guess El Ghazi must be injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Disappointing that El Ghazi is out, for all of the frustration the other night he was a real bright spot for me and just looked to be in an upswing of confidence. The quality just isn't there with Trez but to be fair to him he can have a stinker and never stops going so still wouldn't be surprised to see him accidentally face plant a winner in. Good team otherwise, like the changes in midfield. Can't really expect consistent selections in there when there's so many inconsistent performances.

Hi OutByEaster, there are few nuances to this lineup we may not see till after the kickoff. Trez & Traore plus SJM & Sanson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtaylor200 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Well it seems that we all happy with the line up. That has to be a first 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Trez might be playing on the left to offer some protection for Elmo against Neto who is arguably their biggest threat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Been hoping for that CM combination, interesting to see how they fare together. Shame it's no Cash & Grealish of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
