Don't like it. Rather not have Mark Bunn playing as a wing back. Same with Gestede playing wide left.A little bit concerned about that line up.

Put someone on the half-way line ffs.Oh agreed on that. A bugbear of mine for years. Grealish and Ayew won't win many headers in our box. They might keep a few out of it who will if they are stood on the halfway line though.when i played under 11's football our manager always said that when the opposition had a corner 2 attackers had to stand on the halfway linefuck me is it really that difficult?This seems to get picked up by football fans regularly. The counterargument I have seen is that the more people defending in the box the more likely it is to stop a goal. Of course however it means sacrificing an attacking outlet. I assume coaches and managers have lots of stats about goals from corners and what the best way to defend them is. Most teams seem to do it nowadays.by leaving two men on the half way line the opposition have to leave 3 back so you already have an advantagedont get me started on zonal marking

Obviously if one of McC or Grealish get fit, they take Adomah's place with him to come off the bench with his pace.Ipswich 0-1 Villa if we are solid and set up correctly.We seemed set up correctly in last night's first half. Just read in the Birmingham mail one of their players stating that at half time they decided to push Woods forward to counter our attacking threat and also they sorted out the threat from our wide players. Well Woods went on to dominate the game and they could've easily won it. I'd like to know what the discussion was in our dressing room? Because one things for certain. They out thought us tactically. This was fucking Brentford!!Even in the first half, I didn't feel we were playing well as a team. The goal was a moment of individual quality, we weren't creating chances by passing through them, and for the last 10 minutes of the half we were holding on a bit.Players will always talk about minor tweaks, in order to praise the management and they are feeling good after coming away with a point, but in reality they didn't have to change much to get something out of the game.
