Come on Villa please give us three points today.

Teams please. Then I'm off to watch it with a big fry-up.

[VillaZogmariner]

The line up -

Friedel; Walker, Dunne, Collins, L Young; Delph, Reo-Coker, Petrov; Downing, Bent, A Young.

[VillaZogmariner]

Still no Bannan on the bench -

Pires, Agbonlahor, Albrighton, Bradley, Heskey, Cuellar, Marshall.

[VillaZogmariner]

Szczesny, Sagna, Squillaci, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Ramsey, Song, Wilshere, Walcott, V Persie, Arshavin. Subs: Lehmann, Denilson, Eboue, Chamakh, Henderson, Miquel, Bendtner.

Is Makoun still injured then? I'm glad to see Delph get a start.

[CJ]

So what's experimental about that then? Maybe the experiment will be trying not to concede sloppy goals.

Is Makoun still injured then? I'm glad to see Delph get a start.

Agreed though I think we will take a mauling today - Gooners are normally very good with no pressure.

[Mazrim]

4 - 3 - 3?

I like it, potentially. If Makoun was in for Petrov.

[PaulTheVillan]

4-5-1?

[Shrek]

I still think we will win today, that is the line up i would have picked.

Delph in a midfield three should work well for him.

[holtepaul]

Thank god

Thats the team I said should have started last week. Still think we will get thumped but at least we are at least trying to get a result

[eamonn]

Hopefully Delph doesn't have his arse handed to him on a plate like his performance there last season. Mind you, they were all pretty crud that day.

Carlos Kickaball should be in for Walker or one of the clowns in the centre.

[Legion]

They're there for the taking. An easy win beckons.
