Emery really doesn't trust him at all I wonder if he's just not mobile enough to play in our defensive line. Or just hasn't bought into Emeryball. Decently strong side.

We didn't bring everyone with the team and they've played a lot of football recently including the Warsaw matches. If you know you are starting them vs Brentford then you might just leave them at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted December 14, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2023 Marty Cash’s 120th appearance… only seems five mins since we signed him. He loves the Villa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I'm a fan of that team. Kind of surprised Lenglet isn't there at all and he didn't pick Chambers to start start over one of Pau or Konsa. That said, keeping it solid at the back 4, with a youth goalkeeper in, is probably a sensible choice. I know Pau and Konsa have played a lot but their intensity isn't quite the same as our midfield so shouldn't need quite the same level of rest that Kamara and Tielemans will so should be all good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 good team, assume lenglet is injured otherwise assume he'd have played, but perhaps also with Marshall in goal, they wanted to give the kid an extra bit of experience ahead of him. Either way he must be really excited. Good look Fillip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted December 14, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 14, 2023 Hopefully that'll encourage them to shoot from everywhere and thus reduce the quality of their chances. It's an interesting side alright. Quite strong in a weird way. Hope it clicks. A nice early goal (or even a crappy early goal) would help the Guinness go down.

VillaAlex Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Tielemans and Bailey were suffering and wanted to be subbed Vs Arsenal so they either have knocks or need a rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't there rumours he was leaving us? Looks a decent starting line up, concern is mainly around the forwards holding onto the ball and not turning it over to quickly. Vital we take the sting out of the game early. Marshall at the back will be interesting as well, his distribution will be tested that's for sure, sensible to keep torres and konsa on. Digne's not starting is interesting as well, Moreno will have to play against Brentford, can see an early sub with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything more likely he'd play as if he gets injured it's not him to hurt us down the line. Given not in the bench he must have picked up a knock during training this morning?
