StanBalaban Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I think match fitness may be a big factor here, and Young seems to have had a solid pre-season. Wouldn't be surprised to see him on the left, with one of Watkins and Ings dropping deeper when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadridVilla Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 ----------------Martinez----------------- Cash---Konsa---Mings---Young --------McGinn---Nakamba-------- ---Bailey---Buendia---El Ghazi-- -----------------Watkins----------------- Interesting first game, will be nice to see some of the new signings in action. With Ings and Watkins both top strikers it's hard to know whether they will rotate or both play - it will make it harder for the opposition to know what to expect as we were becoming predictable at times last year. Losing Grealish and bringing in new players does mean it will be a lot harder for oppositions to work us out before the game, but those tactics will be new to us as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Has Targett been struggling with injury? Bit odd to just drop him when he was incredibly consistant last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyvillan Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Got to say I’m a bit concerned about this one. They will be fully revved up, starting back in the Prem at home, fans back for the first time in …for ever, and meanwhile we are short a number of players through …well a number of reasons, new players not yet bedded in, with a pre season that has been seismic in it’s disruptive influence, and short of credible pre season game time….. Just see it as very likely that we look ‘half baked’ and not joined up as a team Hope I’m wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 7, 2021 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2021 Watford fans still bear a big grudge for the game when we scored a last minute winner at Villa Park - the goal was credited to Mings and they thought he should have been sent off earlier in the game - they very much hold that game up as a big reason why they were relegated. They will very, very up for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Are we even going to have a squad fit enough to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Wouldn't mind starting Ash on the left for this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 It will be far from our strongest team against Watford but we should still have enough to beat them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaFaninLondon Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Team will probably be something like this: ------------------------Martinez----------------------------- Cash---------Konsa---------Mings---------Targett ----------------McGinn------Nakamba----------------- Traore---------------Buendia----------------Watkins -----------------------------Ings------------------------------- If Bailey is available he would probably start over Traore but I'm guessing he'll only make the bench at best. Alternatively we could go with 3 in the middle with McGinn, Nakamba and Sanson and Buendia, Watkins and Ings as our front three. It's important we start the season well as games 1-3 are winnable before a tough run of fixtures from gameweek 4 including Manure, Spuds, Chelsea and Arse away. Our record at Watford hasn't been good recently but anything over than 3 points will be disappointing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Is there a decent pre match write up for this one out yet? With fan free sterility, I did not take much of notice of Championship so I am bit clueless. What will their team look like? Who will be danger-men (piss off Troy)? How did they fair last season? Who have they signed? What has their preseason been like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Doubt we'll see Buendia, Sanson or Bailey for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) Wouldn’t be my first choice obviously but this is how I think we’ll line up next weekend: ------------------------Martinez----------------------------- Cash---------Konsa---------Mings---------Targett ----------------McGinn------Nakamba----------------- JPB --------------- Ings ---------------- Young ------------------------Watkins----------------------------- edit - if Watkins is out, then i’d go with ------------------------Martinez----------------------------- Cash---------Konsa---------Mings---------Targett ----------------McGinn------Nakamba----------------- JPB --------------- Carney ---------------- Young ------------------------- Ings ----------------------------- Edited August 8, 2021 by ferguson1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Now watkins might be Injured. This could be a hot mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Hopefully Buendia and Watkins will be fit for this one. After watching the match today I think I'd go with: Emi Cash Konsa Mings Targett Marv McGinn Young Chuk Traore Watkins (Ings) Subs: Steer, Hause, Tuanzebe, Hourihane, JBP, Buendia, Ings (Ramsey if Ings starts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
