                               Johnstone

Bree               Chester            Terry          Taylor
           
                                Whelan

Snodrass       Onomah         Hourihane     Green
 
                                 Davis
I like the balance of this side, but I'm pretty sure Snoddy said he left Spam because Bilic played him out of position on the right?..
He prefers to cut in from the left or play in the hole.
Anyhow, 3-0 Villa onward & upward.


Wrong way round, he wants to play on the right and they were playing him on the left so the team above is the right setup for him.  It's the best 11 we have available right now.

I'm absent on Saturday...I was away for Norwich & Wigan so the one certainty is we'll score 4.

However it looks like I'll be making my home attendance debut this season, so we'll also concede 4. 4-4 then.

This is exactly what I want to see. Maybe De Laet instead of Bree but pretty much spot on

Get rid of Whelan and play Hogan up top with Davis. Attack attack attack.

he's bound to play Elmohamedy <typo> at right full back if Snodgrass plays right mid.

Need to win. Will win.

3-2. Brentford aren't as bad as their league position indicates but they have lost three of their regular players to SHA. Can see it being similar to the Norwich game.

Vital we take three points into the Boro match.

2-1 win but a closer game than we'd like.

Bree               Chester            Terry          Taylor
           
                                Whelan

Snodrass       Onomah         Hourihane     Green
 
                                 Davis

Only reason I didn't put Snodgrass in from the start is that I'm not sure how much he has played this season so far, if at all.  I would hope to see the above team going forward though, with Kodjia coming in on the left when he returns.

1-1. Typical Villa, can't beat a team who have sold every valuable asset they have.

Would like to see that happening in the final third of games (especially at home) if we are totally on top or are chasing it.
