4 full backs...it's an interesting tactic. Absorb the early pressure, hit them on the counter and field the tricky lads once fellas start tiring. I suppose.

Horribly negative selection

Jedi on the back line.. again?

[Duncan Shaw]

I presume Lansbury not 100% so probably our only fully fit starting 11

That's how I see it - Lansbury, Grealish and Hogan all coming back from injury so probably not 100%

Looks like commentary's on WM on FM, so hope AVTV works OK

I'm still upset about 'pea wet'.

"No actual mushy peas, love, just a splash of the piss-weak residual green bilge-water that comes off 'em, please."

We need to fuck these fuckers forward into the Stone Age. 0-12 to Villa.

Hogan on the bench is good to see.

Pea wet cracks me up, it's a Manchester thing too

Random thought - I wonder what Hutton would be like in central midfield,  where he could kick the opposition and not be forever thirty yards from where he should be. 

I think his lack of positional awareness and his penchant for kicking blokes up into row Z would see a fair few bookings and reds.

It looks like it should be full of 40' containers...
