Wickham is shite with a poor goal scoring record this season. Therefore, he will score tonight. Its the Villa way

That was much better but I still don't think we are going to score in a month of Sundays. Oh, for a decent striker. But at least we weren't completely shit for a change.
I don't think a striker alone would sort it. We definitely do need a CF who can hold it up and is mobile and can score (erm...Genie grant me a wish...) but the midfield balance has been persistently wrong. We have a mid three and not one of them is breaking beyond the CF. It makes me sick in my mouth a bit to say it but we need a Kevin Nolan type who makes late runs in the box and then becomes a second striker when the ball comes in.

Was that Kozak guiding a flick on towards Ayew?

At least Kozak knows what he's doing with his flick-ons

One of them gambling on the edge of the box for the loose ball would have got a goal first half.

Wickham will score simply because every change a manager does against Villa works these days.

I'm not sure how good Kozak really is, but that move just there shows why he is a better bet than Gestede at the moment.

Kozak is no worldbeater but he's 10 times the player Gestede is.

Good effort Libor. You never see that sort of fight from Gestede.

Fuck was that Bacuna. Kozak is at least trying to be threatening in the box.

That was a proper "just to let you know I'm here" from Okore on Wickham.
