We need to get our season going. What better way to start than our Europa League campaign against a side we handled reasonably easily last season in the CL. I hope there are some players back or some bold changes in tactics and personnel.
I'd like to see
MARTINEZ
CASH
MAATSEN
KONSA
PAU
KAMARA
ELLIOTT
ROGERS
SANCHO
MALEN
WATKINS
Tempted to drop Rogers and Ollie but we need them both back up and firing. This game and Burnley are must wins just to get confidence flowing again.

Emi
Konsa Lindelof Pau Maatsen
McGinn Bogarde Kamara Sancho
Elliott
Guessand

That’s more like it.

I'd like to see 11 players pressing and attacking at pace, getting bums off seats, and rewarding us for our time and parting with our hard-earned cash.
Don't care what 11 are out there as long as they do the above.

That’s sounds fantastic where are you going?

Ma ginn on the wing? Nah.

Would be happy with that except Guessand up front. He’s definitely not a number 9.

Whoever we start we need to play with intent - no excuses.

What's the tifo for this, a flat tyre?
Hopefully a European night 'under the lights' will fire some life into us. 1-0 win.

Quite a few tickets left.

Kamara - McGinn - Elliott
Sancho - striker from the academy - Guessand

Not a bad line-up.

Doesn’t matter what side we put out, we’ll win this one. Bologna are not all that.
-
The result is just anybody's guess, the way Villa are playing anything could happen, for me it just depends how bad the opposition wants the win, I would absolutely play Guessand, he's starting to show some very nice touches, could have a serious player on our hands here.

Do we have to…
As we do.
Martinez
Cash. Konsa. Torres. Maatsen
Bogarde. Kamara
McGinn. Elliot. Sancho
Watkins
Team shape and reaction to criticism are everything. It doesn’t bear thinking about it if its really bad. So hopefully it will be even a bit good.
