4-4-2 - Bennett and Alby on the wings?

[Matt Collins]

So is that Bennett in midfield? And baker ahead of Clark?

That team looks shit, I have to say.

Different

[PaulWinch again]

Clark dropped and Baker kept? weird. Haven't seen 4-4-2 for a while, I do worry that we chop and change formation too much but I am delighted to see Vlaar back. Come on Villa we need a win.

[Fin Feds Dad]

Happy with that starting line up - now have a go from the first whistle .

[Richard E]

Having seen the two teams surely surely we can win this one?

The Baker thing terrifies me, but at least Vlaar is in there.

[Matt Collins]

Maybe Bertrand in midfield actually?

[Matt Collins]

I think we've got a set up that works away from home - the 433 or 4312

I'm not sure why we've changed it here. I think we'll be reliant on the front two today

I've often thought last season that Bennett should be given a try on the left side of midfield so will be interesting to see how he does .
