No Traore, Grealish or Gabby at all.
Would have liked to see Gil make a start.
Not sure about this.

Not a huge amount of creativity in that team, shame Grealish/Adama are injured.

Doesn't look like too much guile in that team. Hope were not just launching it to Gestede. Important that he's not isolated and Sinclair works close to him. Make us proud boys. UTV.

Packed the midfield, looking for Bacuna ( midfield ) and Scotty too hotty to supply the amo for Gestede. Yes we lack the spark of a Grealish or the pace and skills of Traore but Gil could come on and nice to see Libor on the bench too.

Big onus on Westwood today. It's about time he was pushed forward and imposed himself more in the final third. He's got to be the playmaker today. No one else will do it.
Also a big day for Sinclair. He's got to follow up tuesdays display and deliver again.

A big shame about Grealish and Traore.
It's the midfield where Villa are lacking-very one dimensional, unless Gueye is given license to roam. I would have liked to see Veretout instead of Westwood, with Sanchez protecting the defence. Gil should be starting this. Hopefully he'll come on at half time and inspire us if we're not playing very well.
Still, no Gabby which is encouraging for many.
I think it'll be 0-0, but hopefully, I'm wrong.
Come on Villa!!

Not sure what Sherwood is thinking with that line up. The midfield four looks very flat. Maybe he's expecting Sunderland to park the bus as they did last week at Swansea. Our attack will probably consist of hoofs up to Gestede or relying on Bacuna and Amavi to get a few crosses in.
I expect we'll see Gil come on later when we're struggling for ideas. Would have loved to have seen Grealish running at these.
