So gabby and hogan. And Bacuna

No green or hourihane

I'm guessing either gabby left and Bacuna behind hogan

Or vice versa (w gabby closer to hogan)

Maybe switch a bit during the game

Trying to focus on the improvements the new players will bring rather than some of the old guard who have been persevered with.

Bacuna right and Gabby left of a forward 3 led by Hogan?

Bacuna ahead of Conor & Barney? First surprise of a very long season.
Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: Monty on August 05, 2017, 04:34:17 PM
4-4-2, Bacuna and Gabby in it, perhaps the slowest spine of any current professional team in the explored universe. Counter-attack I guess!

Unless it is 4-3-3 with Bacuna as a wife forward. In which case...how ugh.
Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: Toronto Villa on August 05, 2017, 04:35:13 PM
4-3-3 Elmo and Hogan either side of Gabby from the looks of it. Would rather have seen Green supporting Hogan, Hourihane instead of Lansbury. But let's see how it goes.

We've played 441 or 4231 in every pre season game so it would be a major surprise if that's not how we line up - although it could easily switch to 442 at times
Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: Monty on August 05, 2017, 04:38:37 PM
I have a horrible feeling it's a flat 4-4-2 with Bacuna at that most half-thought of 90s positions 'left-mid', but we'll see.
Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: AV5nobs on August 05, 2017, 04:40:25 PM

Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: ASHTONVILLA on August 05, 2017, 04:40:36 PM
I think that will mean Hogan and Gabby up front in a 4-4-2, with presumably Bakuna left wing? odd

Very attacking bench though. think we will win this one comfortably.
Title: Re: Aston Villa v Hull City Match Thread
Post by: ASHTONVILLA on August 05, 2017, 04:42:08 PM
Or Gabby left wing and Bacuna central with Whelan, and Lansbury 'in the hole'.

I thought the Whelan one was a yellow.

The Lansbury one wasn't though.
Whelan tucks his legs in knowing his momentum will take him into the player....foul yes, booking never.

Best 20 mins of football I can remember in a long time.

I agree, this is a very good start but we need to keep it going and get another.

Agreed.  Obviously we're due our shit half after the break, so it would ne nice to go in two goals to the good.

Please take Lansbury off too. Hourihane is a much better player.

I do wonder if him and Bree are wondering what they left Barnsley for. Yes the increased wages will soften things but I'd imagine both would enjoying their football far more up there considering Barnsley played a very attacking game.
