Definitely looks good going forward, and I get Bree for Hutton, but what's going on at the back?  352?  If so, why not Amavi at left wing back?  And if it is 352, then is Bjarnason a left wing back?  Or is it 433 with Baker at left back?  Can't make it out.

Amavi can have no complaints about being dropped - he's looked beyond awful for weeks

Not bad, but no recognised left back?

Wow, a little random and carries risks that I didn't think Bruce would go with.
Either a decent win or a total clusterfuck.

It's a back four with Baker at left back I thought?

Bit harsh to drop Green. Surprised Taylor isn't involved at all.

I was wracking my brain to think of who on earth Taylor was.

Completely forgot that we signed him.

If we can't create anything for this front two given we have hourihane, Lansbury and jack in the side then I give up

Just watching the back end of SKY SPORT SATURDAY and the league tables.
Bloody hell, I didn't realise we have only amassed 5 points more than Burton  Albion.

On paper it looks good going forward. On paper. Please win, Villa. Fed up of crowing Brighton fans down here.

Ignore them matey. There's still time for them to run out of steam & only make the play offs. Oh, and you might like ask them what they were doing before they built the new stadium (ie 'where were you when they were shite'?). ;)

Open invitation for Forest to attack down our left hand side!
If Forest have a right winger he is going to have a field day, this definitely won't be 0 - 0, we will definitely concede!

Err...hmmm.  4-3-3 with Baker at LB or 3-5-2 with Bree pushing on?? In which case I might have given Bacuna the nod ahead of Bree?

Assombalonga is back amongst the goals and is that Pereira back he was quite useful at VP before he got sent off.
