Should probably have a thread for this by now, given we're playing tomorrow.

3-1 win.

Reading were worst team I saw us play last season and seems they've started this one even worse.

No excuses here, it's got to be a comfortable win, against a side that will be in the relegation fight.

I’m currently living in Reading...it’s a shithole and I got 3 bus lane violations in a week so they can fuck right off. At least 3-0 Villa please.

If we come out the blocks like we did v Bees, this could be the game we go in at half time 4-0 up.

I keep reading Abrahams and Boloasie coming, yeah great but what cover do we have at centre half!

I think we will see;

Nyland

Hutton
Chester
Jedinak
Tuanzebe

BB

El Ghazi
McGinn
Grealish
Albert

Kodjia

Our work off the ball has to be maintained and I would rest Whelan, who was excellent, to get fresher legs into midfield.

El Ghazi will hopefully add pace and dynamism, but fingers crossed, better delivery.

Important game to win.

Hutton might not be fit, broken nose and is 50/50 apparently.

I'd bring Taylor in. We need a semblance of balance.
