Guzan, Lowton, Clark, Baker, Luna, Westwood, Bacuna, Weimann, Delph, Agbonlahor (c), Tonev

This is right up there with some of the worst line ups I've ever seen. We'd put out line ups in the stiffs 5 years ago that were far better than this to be honest.

What would your eleven have been today?

I'm sure people have been saying villa are rotten from top to bottom for the majority of the time I've been supporting villa.

Exactly. Been over 40 years now and with the exception of 1977-1982, I have found most fans way too fickle. "Worst line ups ever seen" ..... oh boy, not even close to some of the dross put up by the woeful litany of managers appointed by DE

I would love it, love it if we beat them.

Glad we don't have to see Dyer against us.

Tonev to score a screamer. He's got to get one eventually hasn't he?

I used to be a very negative person but without positive thought this year I would've probably gone mad or worse.... I love Villa and football but despite what Bill Shankly said there are far more important things going on in the world. Let's just see what happens eh?

not a lot of defensive cover

That's not "not a lot of defensive cover" that's no defensive cover.

Where's Herd?

Indeed. Perspective though is in short supply with the football fan of today.

The lack of depth in our squad compared to just about everyone else is astounding.
