theboyangel Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Bizarrely quite excited about this match, even though it's only a friendly and we're only a week into pre-season training! Looking forward to seeing how we line-up in formation and personnel. Obviously we're missing the likes of Given, Dunne, Makoun and Guzan but the rest of the team should be available. Would love to see the following line-up .................Seigrist Lowton.Collins.Clark.Lichaj ...........Herd.El Ahmadi Albrighton.Holmann.N'Zogbia ...................Bent Totally expecting lots of changes throughout the game. Chuffed it's live on AVTV too as it's going to piss down tomorrow afternoon!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuffed it's live on AVTV too as it's going to piss down tomorrow afternoon!!! Nothing like a new season and more importantly a new manager to renew that optimism. I believe Siegrist is at the Olympics. So I'd go .................Marshall Lowton.Collins.Clark.Lichaj ...........Delph .El Ahmadi N'Zogbia---Ireland --- .Holman ...................Bent I'd like Delph to get a run to see if he can finally start to deliver on the promise under a new manager, new style of play etc. Would even be tempted to drop Ireland a little deeper and play three box to box midfielders with Zog and Holman pushed right on.

omariqy Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Marshall Lowton Collins Clark Lichaj Albrighton Al Ahmadi Herd N'Zogbia Ireland Bent Will be tuning in to watch this...was hoping for at least one more new name before this game. Expect Holman to feature as well, be interesting to see where Lambert plays him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Who is our next Keeper in line from the youth, seeing as we're down to 1 by the looks of things? Cotton still at the club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gompedyret Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 O'boy,o'boy,o'boyoboy! First match of the season! If I was a dog, I'd wag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gompedyret Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Would have loved to see Guzan keeping the goal, btw. Hopefully his ready for action asap. Wont bother to put up a team, as I guess most of the available team will get some form of run-out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Yeah AVTV is free for season ticket holders. You may have to email them though as some/maybe all haven't got their code yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.I.C.O. Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 With so many players keen to prove a point in front of the new gaffer I reckon Burton could get destroyed today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 The pitch at Burton is looking fabulous Yep. we have a pretty nice stadium here too for a lower league outfit. Hopefully the weather holds out, it's lovely and sunny here right now. Shame I'm busy so I can't come and watch. Come on Villa, let's start off with a win.

Daniel Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Looking forward to this. Will be nice to see a few of the new/young players get a run out.
