Villa go out and win, win well and come out unscathed.

Looks like a gung-ho 4-2-3-1. I like it.

Edit: Hawkeye, disagree, I think it'll be a central partnership of Weimann and Benteke, with Gabby left and Zog right.

I didnt say Gung Ho but it feels a little like it, the key will be Nzog putting a shift in, where ever he plays.
I still think its 4-2-3-1 but hey it could be 3- 5 -2

Slight miscommunication there, I agree about the formation but disagree about Zog's position, though I do agree about the putting the shift in bit. And I think the team's pretty gung-ho!
That explains it Gung Ho it is then, and Zog needs to be a colossuss (sigh)

How weak are we in squad terms for centre mid! If bannan or Delph get a knock tonight we are really really struggling!
