I said 3-1 before the teams were announced but now I've seen that Bunn is in the line up I am convinced we will keep a clean sheet.

I like Gollini. Not sure dropping him is a good idea, feels like he's being punished for Elphick's mistake.

Think it is a massive hint that we will be getting a new keeper in January. 


Bruce has said that he's got two deals more or less done so you're probably right.

Glad to see Westwood and Flabby benched. Hope Gardner performs better than he did last time out - can see Grealish on for him later on. Not a fan of Bunn but equally not convinced by Gollini. New, experienced goalie in January please.

Don't like Bunn starting and harsh dropping Jack unless he has a knock, be interesting to see what Ross does though. Happy with the other changes.

Maybe he couldn't tell Gollini and elphick apart so had to tell both of them they were dropped just to be sure

Forgive me but does this mean Ross is playing as a winger

Really need to be beating this lot, even Rotherham beat them recently.

Trouble is with Jack though, he flounces around half heartedly most of the time with no urgency and this slows down the attacks and the build up of play, allowing the opposition to regroup and organise. He's a talented player though and I would have him on for the last 20 mins of nearly every match either to try to unlock the opposition with something classy or to help keep the ball depending on the circumstances.

Not good enough from Bruce. Bunn is rubbish. Gardner? And fat shit and Gestede on the bench...sigh. That pair of cumbersome fucks, stealing a living.

Besides that, ok.

I rate GoIllini-why drop him after Norwich, but not after Leeds? Strange creatures are football managers. Gardner is definitely a favourite.

I think we'll lose today. Hopefully the three up front will do the business. Come on Villa. Prove me wrong.

Bunn starting is a joke, the worst keeper I've seen playing for the club. Gollini must be off in Jan if the kid from Manchester Utd is coming in.

The bench in horribly unbalanced too, four forwards. Huge game for McCormack this

Down the middle I expect with Kodjia on left

It is a big game for McCormack but playing on the left isn't going to play to his strengths
I guess it could be closer to 4411 with Bacuna wide, but that would leave a lot of emphasis on Gardner . . .

All the changes I understand except for Bunn, who is the poorest goalkeeper I've ever seen play first team football for Villa.

And saying that having Kod and Ross is because the board backed him with signings.
