Norwich just lost 5-4 in the 95th minute, that will kill them. Come on now Villa!

Haven, I am tempted to go out and buy a parrot so I can teach it to screech your post.

Not overly happy with richards back in the team. Prove me wrong, please.

[Exeter 77]

Is that team 5 at the back? That's how the Beeb see it with Richards as centre back.

[Ger Regan]

Christ I hope not. I can just about stomach him as a right back.

He will right back with Bacuna pushed up to replace Veretout.

5 at the back with two wing backs who are shite and cant cross? I doubt it, well I hope it isn't anyway. Would be a terrible formation.

Very strange decision to drop Veretout and leave both Westwood and Gil in. The right flank of Richards and Bacuna looks a bit conservative but they look as if either Evans or Olsson will be left back.two very average teams maybe Ayew can be the difference

[Toronto Villa]

It's 4-4-2. Bacuna at the might of midfield

[ozzjim]

I thought they might be 5 at the back too then remembered Pulis likes to sting 4 giant centre backs across the back line and turn it into a rugby game

[ozzjim]

Doesn't Dawson often go to left back and Evans into holding midfield. Anywhere Tony can get  a defender.

[Olof's Beard]

I have a feeling that Bacuna is going to score today.

[VancouverLion]

Come on you Villa boys!!!!!!!

Hate when they wear the black and yellow tracksuit top with the home kit, looks gash!!

[PaulWinch again]

Not sure why Veretout's on the bench. Come on Villa.

[aj2k77]

Bum them till Pulis' hat drops off, come on you lions.
