Anwar for Kodjia is the only change. What he seems in Whelan is baffling.

Merge mine please Leeg.
Whelan *sigh*
-
Well the defence has a chance to redeem itself.
-
Merge mine please Leeg.
Whelan *sigh*
I don't think he did too bad at all against Dirty Leeds.
-
Ah well, team picks itself at the moment, Bjarnson can't be fully fit yet.
-
Under normal circumstances Elmo should be out after ruining Christmas.
But we're playing three full-backs in a back four, so this ain't normal circumstances.
-
Can see us flagging badly by the hour. Not sure we'll be 2-3 goals up either to compensate.
Need to use our bench better than we did on Sunday.
-
If I have sky sports but through virgin, so don’t have the red button..how can I watch the game ? Does anyone (ahem) know?
-

My brother has Virgin and can still watch red button games
-
Elmohamady should be dropped to the bench after his last couple of stinkers, but who would take his place? Bruce has seriously screwed us over.
-
Feel a bit sorry for Kodjia, thought he played well last time out. Whelan started well but was treading water in the second half, I'm surprised he's started today.
-

You can. My box can take some convincing but gets there in the end. I watched the Forest game through the red button on Virgin.
-

Blimey....so you can! Thanks Chris.
-
Don't think we need 3 strikers on the bench, I would have put a young lad in place of Hogan.
-
You can also use the Sky Sports App to watch it. If you are out and about though, and the game is like Saturday's you might end up smashing your phone.
-
Three right backs in the back four, we won't be keeping a clean sheet anyway. Surprised BB or AA haven't come back in to add a bit more grit to that midfield. Bolasie needs to get the finger out big time today.
-
Don't like that starting lineup, but then I rarely do.
Nyland, Hutton, Elmohamady, Whelan, Hourihane. That's 5 out of 11 players. And all crap. It's going to be a tall order to get anything from this game.
Hogan on the bench. Another waste of a spot.
I just don't believe we don't have more suitable players. Are they all injured?
I hope they all prove me massively wrong and I am feasting upon humble pie later.
Up the Villa.
-
the quicker Bruce is at Sheffield and buys Elmo ..
suprised he gets a game and kodja doesnt , thou I wish he would look up and release the ball quicker.
obviously down to the bare bones at the back if Elmo is starting , hes been shocking , I thought Whelan was ok against Leeds to be fair but would prefer a fit BB .
-
I assume the only reason we see Elmo in the team is injury situation. Based on his recent poor performances he should be nowhere near first team.
-
Drops Kodjia? Hmmm.
-
Meh
-
Need El Ghazi to show the form he produced in the Boro and Albion games, going 3 -2 Villa.
-
We’ve won 5 of our last 25 Boxing Day games. Make that 26.
-
Elmo has one poor game and he gets jumped on. It really is ridiculous.
-
Merge mine please Leeg.
Whelan *sigh*
I don't think he did too bad at all against Dirty Leeds.
I just find when he plays everything is slower and we play much deeper. It brings pressure back on to what is already a very suspect defence. Jack's presence meant we played higher up the pitch so while I'm not expecting anyone to replace his ability I would much rather we played a more similar style and replaced Jack with a more similar style of player at the club. It's why I'd rather us play O'Hare than Whelan.
-
That is a fair point.
-
Elmo has one poor game and he gets jumped on. It really is ridiculous.
There aren't too many options I might agree but he's been directly involved in us conceding 3 goals in the past three games that all affected the final outcome of those games. That's not good at all.
-

not one clampy
-
Rotate and trust a young lad ffs.

He's not the only one but like you said, there's not many other options so the whinging about him playing is pointless.
-
I have to say i am very disappointed in that team selected. I know it is early days but Deano seems to have his favourites How Elmo and Whelan play just baffles me Also the best player for villa against Leeds Kodjia is left out in favour of El Ghazi who was awful when he came on against Leeds is another strange one
-
Who's streaming their stream then?
-
The thing is it’s the 2nd game in three days with another in three days. I can’t see how Whelan has the legs for that. He hasn’t exactly freshened things up with that line up.
-
I don’t think Whelan is a favourite as much as Dean sees him as a way of protecting the back four and doesn’t think O’Hare offers that. In fact if BB was fitter and not just coming back into the squad I think he’d be playing.

As is whinging about people whinging :P :-*
-
Poor uninspired selection .
Disappointed that O”Hare is not being given an opportunity in Jacks role
Kodja should be starting based on last performance
-
That's a load of rubbish, Smith. Whelan was shit last match, and is surely far too old to play so soon after the Leeds debacle. Not sure what El Ghazi did to get a starting place, and why is that load of rubbish Hogan on the bench.
-
Maybe Kod isn't fully fit and that's he was taken off against Leeds. I'd have preferred to see O'Hare on the bench as not sure we need 3 strikers on it.
-
Come on Villa three points please for a belated Christmas present.
-
Six changes for the Swans, they're gonna be fresh as fxuk. We've got Whelan with two games in three days buffered by a big Christmas dinner, the sweaty old bastard!
-
Don't think we need 3 strikers on the bench, I would have put a young lad in place of Hogan.
I would put a bag of cement in place of Hogan.
-
So far so crap
-
Is anybody watching this on the internet (and not sky red button)?
-
Watching in 30 degrees with a lunch beer. Looks like we will not get a comfortable game
-
We’re going to struggle if we can’t disrupt their rhythm. We’ll run out of gas.
-
Swansea do like to play it out from the back don’t they. We are pressing high but they are just passing around us
-
We’re not getting anywhere near close enough to pressure them.
-
They're taking the piss so far.
-
stupid fk to give away
-
Are Aston Villa still on the team bus?
-
Amazing how easy it is for confidence to vanish.
-
Looks like Elmo has got a tricky winger against him which can only mean trouble
-
Not seen us put two passes together yet
-
We need to stop the long boot upfield giving possession away
-
Have we strung two passes together since the opening couple of minutes?
-
We've been poor so far.
-
It’s been a really poor lethargic start. Sort it the fuck out.
-
You can also use the Sky Sports App to watch it. If you are out and about though, and the game is like Saturday's you might end up smashing your phone.
Any tips on how to do this? Can see derby vs Sheff U but no red button anywhere? Take the point about maybe not bothering with it tho!
-
look up conor ffs
-
Midfield is doing nothing.

You don't have the red button option if you subscribe via vodafone etc, it needs to be the proper Sky Sports app and you need to subscribe to Sky Sports. I think.
-
what a save
-
Fuck how did McGinn not score?
-
hutton ffs
-
Great save from Swansea's keeper there. McGinn should have scored
-
All been on the piss? McGinn smash into keeper, should have scored
-
finally some good play and a jammy save.
-
McGinn should have scored.
-
Better the last few minutes, which is good as the first twenty we barely touched the ball
-
They seem to be good at the subtle pushes/obstructions which the referee is missing
-
Do all red button games look like they’re being filmed on someone’s phone? I’m sure I watched one recently that looked like it was filmed on proper kit by a proper cameraman.
-
brees been ok
-
elmo fucking up in attack
-
elmo fucking up in attack
And nearly cost us -still might

yeah thought there was replays too
-
Bloody hell Elmo is an absolute nightmare at the moment.
-
No replays on this red dot thingy. Somehow we have a corner away. Make stupid mistakes
-
Great save or bad miss? Or both? In the absence of any replays it would be good if the commentator could provide some sort of an opinion on anything of interest that happens - though I guess he doesn't have the benefit of replays either.
-
Too fucking slow and clumsy, rubbish.
-
This camera work is making me feel queezy.
-
Think player with most touches atm is Nyland 😑
-
maybe its the camera work making us look shit
-
Jeez come on Villa this is pants. Find your bloody men!
-
Sub Whelan for fucks sake.
-
I'll take 0-0 now if it was offered. We've been shite so far.
-
Where the fuck our our midfield?
McGinn is having the quietest game since joining, whelan is giving the ball away and Hourihane is being fucking Hourihane.
-
Can we start passing to a villa team mate please - i'm sure it would help
-
This is fucking awful.
-
maybe its the camera work making us look shit
Nope we're shite on AVTV as well.
-
maybe its the camera work making us look shit
Or vis versa.
-
Incredibly week midfield.
-
rubbish so far but should be winning
bit like the leeds game ..crap but scored the goals
-
Well I don’t know where Deanos organisation skills have gone because we are not looking like a team at the moment
-
All Whelan is doing is slowing play down and then giving the ball away.
-
el ghazi has gone from Ronaldo to Ronald McDonald.
-
All Whelan is doing is slowing play down and then giving the ball away.
What is it that managers see, that normal people can't?
-
There is a time when you just know a player is finished.
Looks like that time has arrived for Elmohamady.
-
Good job the officials didn’t see that!
-
All Whelan is doing is slowing play down and then giving the ball away.
Nice quote from his original scouting report there.
-
a sack of shite all that money spent and fuck al to show for it
-
Looks like we've come for the clean sheet. Very Bruce-esque thus far
-
We’ve gone from being this confident/adventurous side with 20 plus shots to disjointed and so careless in a matter of weeks. I’ll say it again, Whelan sucks our play deeper and deeper and we start to look like Bruce’s Villa.
-
Abraham rightly going mental at the lack of energy from the midfield.
-
swansea fucked up that
-
What a fucking gong show we are at the back
-
Got away with one there. Good job they were about as incisive as a butter knife into concrete
-
Chester lucky, rubbish from him again.
-
whelanns cross then??? rubbish
-
Whelan is terrible.
-
Piss poor passing
-
whelanns cross then??? rubbish
and why the fuck does he now take corners?
-
Elmohamady is now just a liability.
-
Elmo oh dear.
-
Not that it really matters to us now
Leeds winning
-
We need to grow a pair - being pushed off the ball far too easily
-
whelanns cross then??? rubbish
and why the fuck does he now take corners?
Weird, isn’t it?
-
Lack of pace at the back is frightening.
-
hutton what the fuck was that cross arrgghhhh
-
Fcukin Hell how shit is our final ball.
-
Fucking Hutton is just shit. What the fuck was that?
-
Maybe you don't appreciate how good a player is until they are not there. We are missing JG big time.
-
tammy heads like tammy wynette
-
Finally a cross - poor connection TA
-
Finally something from Bolasie. Pity about Abraham's header.
-
Maybe you don't appreciate how good a player is until they are not there. We are missing JG big time.
jack duckworth would get in this team
-
Bolasie bolasies it up.
-
As has been said umpteen times even when grealish is not at his best it takes 3 players to dispossess him, which creates space for other players. Midfielders are having to perform on their own merit now and bar McGinn they are really not coming out of it very well.
-
Bruce better sort this out at halftime because this all too familiar.
-
Maybe you don't appreciate how good a player is until they are not there. We are missing JG big time.
jack duckworth would get in this team
Can he play at right back?
-
Just feels like a bore draw today.
Let's hope our subs on the hour can actually make us stronger rather than weaker this game, we certainly have options.
-
Maybe you don't appreciate how good a player is until they are not there. We are missing JG big time.
We do. We can't make the ball 'stick' in the final third, we struggle to hold on to it.
If we are interested in Romaine Sawyer, I hope we pick him up quickly.

THat is correct.
My brother gave me a password as he has a spare slot or some such.
-
We don’t appear to be setting many traps these days.
-
We seem to have settled a bit thank god
-

Can he play at right back?
no but Vera would be a better option
-

We keep falling into the picking Whelan trap.
-
Still only 5 points off 5th as it stands.
-
SHA beating Stoke.
-
McGinn is really good.

Ta have got in now
-
least we are getting into it
maybe second half is ours
-
Much better these last ten minutes
-
I’m going to have a tenner on Blues to win the play offs as I never win bets.
-
swansea again fucking up
they too are crap
-
half chance there
-
Good shot from Bolasie.
-
We have more than enough to win this game. We just need to fucking believe again and not make stupid errors at the back.
-
And as we lose form Norwich start losing of course.....1 down to Forest at half time.
Smart money is probably on WBA getting 2nd tbh.
-
Dreadful, really weak for the most part. Get Whelan off the pitch he’s been utterly pointless.
-
Absolutely dire.
The midfield three are flat to accommodate Hourihane and Whelan's lack of legs.
The only positive is we've only given up the McBurnie miss and a free header, where bizarrely despite not having the balance of play we've had the better chances.
This is desperate at the moment. The atmosphere is dead and it's no surprise as this is sub-Bruce.
Swansea are terrible going forwards though.
We desperately need Jack back or a new midfielder.
-
We have more than enough to win this game. We just need to fucking believe again and not make stupid errors at the back.
Clean sheet after last few games is not too bad I'd suggest.
Need much more from the forward players today. El Ghazi's golden form didn't last too long really.
Would get Kodj and Albert on the hour.
-
Thought we were awful for 20 mins. Then a bit better. Is the pitch water logged? The ball is moving very slowly
Agree we look very leaden footed. Hourihane and whelan seem to both be playing deep today with mcginn as a 10? Think whelan needs to come off
Given the above, would have liked to see ohare on the bench as he could play that ten role
The
-
The Elmo and El Ghazi dream-team are making me very nervous. We are lacking movement and the ability to pass to another Villa shirt. My daughter says Villa are lame and she's not wrong.
-
He's not hit the heights of last season personally but last few games have shown Jack is irreplacable in our set up.
Just like last season he's injured at the wrong time for us. Injury in August-October wouldn't have changed much as we were dire then.
-
Whelan and, to a less extent, Hourihane are slowing everything down. Whelan contributes pretty much nothing.
Without Grealish we struggle to create around their area, and seem to be specialising in just given Swansea the ball back.
There's no energy or zip to us at all.

Dream team?......dare I say Elmo is a bloody nightmare.
-
It's the midfield 3. Flat and deep. McGinn showed a bit more movement towards the end of the half.
Whelan...yikes.
-
Dreadful. We look scared on the ball and really lacking in confidence. Big team talk for DS. Early positive subs could be key.

I think aside from being generally gash, Whelan slows everything down and pulls Hourihane deeper with him. Even look at how deep McGinn comes to get the ball. I think Hourihane is the right deep player. Him or BB with McGinn and Grealish in front. But you cannot have both him and Whelan.
-

Well it's clearly instructions. When your defence is gifting goals every game it's hardly a scandal for the manager to instruct midfield to sit deeper and provide some more cover when the opposition break.
Might be very boring for a 7 hour away round trip on Boxing day but I'm hopeful we can pinch this 0-1 like we did many times away from home last season of course.
In present form we probably need to win a couple ugly before going back to smashing teams when Jack eventually returns with a few new signings in January.
-
The other thing that happens when we are is all of our attacks are more counter based and isolated. When we play higher up and up on their box we have extra men attacking the box or overlapping. Now it is down to 3 at most and if it breaks down watch the massive gap that appears in behind.
-
The Leeds capitulation?
Too many old players?
-
We have got into some good situations but our final ball has been atrocious today.

I was being facetious !
-
I think we looked leggy as much as anything at the start
Yiure not gonna play thrilling football every game
Let's see if we can grind this out
-
Blackburn draw level at Leeds.

True but I just think without Jack we simply don't have the ability in midfield to switch play and get our wide players 1 v 1 against opposition fullbacks.
We all saw how good Leeds were at that on Sunday. I'd like to think DS would get another midfield in January capable of quick passing as ball currently is too slow and Bolaise and El Ghazi become passengers then.

I think Hourihane has done that - switched play - very well in several games this season, but if he's not far forward enough to do it, then it won't happen.
-
Blackburn draw level at Leeds.
Nice of the top 2 to lose form as we embark on our 7 match winless run.
-
Piss poor start again. Fucking pathetic.
-
close from boliaise
-
Hourihane, Whelan and Elmo have been especially awful.
-
free kick villa
-
looked a pen??
-
new lun nearly fucked up
-
Fuck me. We have been so wasteful in front of goal today. Good thing is we are finally putting some consistent pressure on them
Edit: Nyland nearly fucked it up again
-
close again from villa
come on
-
WHY THE FUCK IS WHELAN NEAR ANY SET PIECE?
-
get whelan off the fecking corners
-
Get Whelan off is what you meant.
-
Better in last few mins, need this urgency.
-
I know I'm asking for it, but this has 0-0 written all over it.
-
get whelan off the fecking corners
Fixed.
-
Roger -I might have guessed-never gives us anything
-
Abraham having one of his bambi days.
-
Abraham has too many off days.
-
Roger -I might have guessed-never gives us anything
Oops missed "East"
-
Need some subs! We have four attacking players on the bench. I agree that Kodj wasn't actually that bad on Sunday so he is a must along with Adomah.
Swansea got likes of Bony and Jefferson Montero as options so I'd like us to be the proactive team.
-
Abraham having one of his bambi days.
oh deer
-
Roger -I might have guessed-never gives us anything
He’s not having a good game is he
-
Roger -I might have guessed-never gives us anything
He’s not having a good game is he
Plays on a clear foul on Hourihan and when we lose it immediately lets play go on
-
Abraham has too many off days.
Bizarre comment.
-
I know I'm asking for it, but this has 0-0 written all over it.
Draws feel like defeats in our situation.
-
Think Dean must have had a word with Elmo as he’s a lot better this half
-
get kod on
-
Graham Potter blinked first, put Montero on who gave us the runaround a few seasons ago. Amazed he's still at Swansea.
-
Yes he managed to show him 100 of his worst clips at Half Time.
-
Yes.
-
Abraham has too many off days.
Bizarre comment.
Not really bizarre though is it
-
GOaaallll
-
Hourihane!
The very ugly 0-1 is on.
-
good goaalll
-
It's a slightly strange comment. He played poorly against the Baggies and again today thus far. I can't think of any others? He's got 9 in 7 before today. Simply not good enough!
-
Great cross from Hutton. Get in!!
-
Hourihane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hutton manages to cross with his left foot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Goooooooooooool
-
Yes.
youre 18 mins in front
-
Yes!! lovely worked goal!
-
The pass from Bolasie was sublime.
-
Get in, lovely move and good run Conor. Get a second.
-
BOOM!
-
This referee is a complete Cnut.
-
Brilliant cross by McCafu!! Get in!!!
-
Cue all the superb professional away performances comments now if we hold on!
Amazing how in football one goal can skew perceptions so much.
Given our current situation an ugly 0-1 is very acceptable to me. Would take another at Preston no bother.
-
This referee is a complete Cnut.
He always is (and has been)
-
The question now is how can we keep them from getting back into this. We need a second goal for sure and that might not be enough but we have to remain responsibly aggressive.
-
Abraham has too many off days.
Bizarre comment.
Not really bizarre though is it
Well, it is in my book. Every player has off days. Tammy's one goal off the top scorer in the league this season.

Thing is we have done it before especially away from home. For some reason at Villa Park we have been a disaster in keeping leads or playing responsibly in defence. If we do hold on now it will be a very good result and the plaudits will be very much deserved.
-
elmo doing one of his shit headers again
Yes...2 of them in the last few mins.

Yeah home form is frustrating but we've been on the front foot so much that teams can pick up off I guess.
We will be playing more of the bottom half at home over next 6 weeks so hopefully we can get back to winning at VP.
-
good ball there
-
I fear we’ll tire here.
-
Norwich 2 down to Forest if anything is interested....
Still 11 points off them if we win which gives you a scale of the task.
-
How was the goal scored? I'd nipped out of the room to get a bottle of red.
Bit annoying really, and my instinctive reaction was 'bollocks, I missed it' not 'great, we've scored.'
-
fuck me close
-

I think you’re being very generous Tom, it’s a completely unwarranted comment about one of, if not ‘our’ best player.

swansea i meant

At this time of year with the frequency of games, a bad week or two can cost you 5-6 points. We've just got to stay in touch as much as we can with the makeshift back 5 then hopefully put a run together in the new year.

ref you are a cnut

He'd been denied twice in this second half but there was no stopping that header from Villa midfielder Conor Hourihane!
Alan Hutton - the Scottish Cafu - marauds down the left and hangs one up for Irishman Hourihane to power past Swansea stopper Erwin Mulder.
-
Can you not tackle anymore? Why was that a foul against Chester?
-
Nyland is probably having his best game for us so far
-
Albert coming on. Good to see him back in the mix.
-
This referee is a complete Cnut.
He always is (and has been)
Another shocker penalising Chester for a cleanly won ball
-
Nyland is probably having his best game for us so far
You know what you’ve likely done now don’t you?
-
Nyland is probably having his best game for us so far
You had to say it.
-
Adomah coming on for Bolasie
-
Can you not tackle anymore? Why was that a foul against Chester?
Because the referee is a twat.
-
Nice early cross for Unc. McGinn over the bar
-
Norwich 2 down to Forest if anything is interested....
Still 11 points off them if we win which gives you a scale of the task.
At this time of year with the frequency of games, a bad week or two can cost you 5-6 points. We've just got to stay in touch as much as we can with the makeshift back 5 then hopefully put a run together in the new year.
Derby up next for Norwich so I do think they'll drop a few more points over next month as they are generally poor against top 10 teams.

sigh

Why is the ref a ****** please?

That was fucking shocking by el Ghazi

Fuck me Anwar. Be better when you’re defending

Jesus Christ fcukin about at the back.
-
What the fuck are we doing at the back?
-
norwich 3 down
They really aren't that good, handing that second spot to the Albion on a plate.
Wouldn't mind them in the play offs....
-

Roger East! Always has been always will be
Tried in the PL for a few games and then kicked out for being shite

He’s losing it

Read the score again at 5 to 5. It will be 3-3 or 4-3 Norwich, the spawny wankers
-
Bloody McGinn needs to stop picking up stupid yellows.
-
McGinn one booking away from a two game ban.
-

Cheers! Fucking c***!

What a fucking dreadful pass back to Nyland.

Not a chance, they're due a shitty run now
-
Ooooh good shot McGinn.
-
McGinn one booking away from a two game ban.
The ref should have booked their centre forward for running all the way back to push our man
-
What the fuck are we doing at the back?
I can't see, but if there was a verb, "to Villa", it was probably that.
-
Nyland caught on his heels.
-
We need another 4 to put this to bed.
-
Bloody McGinn needs to stop picking up stupid yellows.
It's just the way he plays, rough with the smooth I guess
-
We so need a new defence
-
In other news, Lambert giving himself the opportunity to ‘go again’ with Ipswich 3-0 down at QPR. How he keeps getting these jobs is a modern day miracle

They jammied a win in their last game at Blackburn. They need a shit run though
-
Another yellow card for McGinn He must be very close to a 2 game suspension

It’s fucking coming Mr Denmark. As is a Swansea winner.
-
Our defence terrifies me at times, and it's frequently pointless - fucking about at the back, centre halves passing the ball between each other like they think they're playing for Man City, only without the required skill to not give it away whilst doing so.
That's not a moan about this game in particular, just in general.
-

Yep true

agree
-
Another yellow card for McGinn He must be very close to a 2 game suspension
The cavalry will arrive in January.
-
Notice how McGinn loves to put his bum in the players cock to shield the ball.
-
Jedinak would be a useful option to put on at this point if he was around.
-

Lansbury back in training?

Absolute kamikaze team. All that effort for fuck all.

NYLAND SAVES.

Phew Goal kick. Thor on for Conor
-
Fuck off Leeds, done it again
-
Fucking Leeds the spawny bastards!
-
el Ghazi owes Nyland a few beers and a happy finish.
-
Fuck off Leeds, done it again
Same fucker who got the winner against us
-
Leeds are going up.
2nd spot still very much in play for 5-6 teams.
-
So when are Leeds going to implode?
-
Winner winner Sunday roast
-
That'll do it.
-
Fuck Leeds! We are getting three points here!
-
Fuck off Leeds, done it again
Same fucker who got the winner against us
You could look at it one way, but it doesn't exactly scream 'sustainable' that they're having to continually bail themselves out in the last minute
-
So when are Leeds going to implode?
Don’t you know they are mince.
-
All over.
Lovely ugly 0-1. Reminds me of Boro away last season and we went on a good run after that game.
Enjoy that one in the end Ads?! We had even less attacks in the second than first half....
-
Thank fcuk for that.
-
Fuck off Leeds. You know you're winning a trophy when you get spawny results like the two they've pulled out this week.
-
Penalty ffs. Sigh.
RHutton the offender.
Can you believe Hutton giving away that penalty.
What a wanker. I can't even watch his goal against blose.
-

You need both though. They’ve won games in style and like this. We have thrown them away of late which is essentially the opposite of that. Something that I’m glad we managed to arrest today albeit with late penalty save.
-
Spawny or the stuff of Champions?
Well done Villa for getting an " ugly" win - also the stuff of successful teams - let's push on from here ......and sort out that defence/ midfield
-
norwich 3 down
