Swansea City v Aston Villa Match Thread

[eastie]

So is herd playing midfield , or Bennett?

[seanthevillan]

I'd guess 4-2-3-1 with Bennett left, Weimann central and Albrighton wide right - doesn't seem to fit any other way (unless Weimann's up front with Benteke) with Stevens and Bennett in the team.

I would guess Herd just in front of the defence.

[hilts_coolerking]

Michu's fit for them apparently.

[berneboy]

@AVFCOfficial: #AVFC subs: Given, Ireland, Holman, Bowery, Bannan, Lichaj. #AVFCLIVE

Only 6?

PLUS Carruthers

Of course he is

[eric woolban woolban]

No need to worry about Mich.
Just transferred him into my fantasy football team. Guarantees a shocker lol

[Risso]

Wow, is that the youngest team ever? Guzan aside is everyone under 24?

It's arguably one of the worst.  Albrighton AND Delph?  Jesus christ.

Worried

[Matt Collins]

I presume it's essentially 442, with herd at cb. Unless he's asking either Bennett or Stevens to play right wing back?! But I assume not, especially as albrighton will presumably play wide right.

[seanthevillan]

I think Holman must be a bit knackered - his energy at least would be useful against Swansea, it was last time. Delph will have to get through a lot of work.

[paulcomben]

Why did he pick Ireland, Bannan and Homan on Saturday then drop them all today? Constant chopping and changing. No wonder the players have no clue about their roles. Albrighton and Delph were terrible in the last match they started together.

[Whiney MacWhineface]

His options are very limited, but that's a scarey looking team.

I'd guess Herd is partnering CC in a flat 4. Bennett left MF. No KEA on the bench?

Albie owes us a big performance today.

[citizenDJ]

That's not a team that fills me with confidence.....

I'd guess it's a 4-4-2;

                   Guzan

Lowton    Herd    Clark    Stephens

Albrighton Westwood Delph Bennett

           Benteke  Weimann
