4 4 1 1 with O Hare supporting Hogan ?

Could even be a Chelsea style 3-4-3. Would probably suit Adomah and Bjarnasson better than one of them being stuck at full-back.

Like the line up. Let's see if Bodger can get them to function as a team.

It's a Bruce side so it's 8-1-1.

Knowing our luck the pitch will be really bad and screw up what looks quite a decent line up.

I think Bjarnason is left back.

Shame for him that he's only played a handful of games and seems to be in a different position each time. It must be hard to settle.

Taylor needs competition though if Amavi is moving and Bjarnasson isn't much cop further up the field, maybe this will be more up his street. He likes to tackle and put himself about so why not?

You think he'll go with a midfield?

How dare SB try something more left field, modern and youthful.

Dinasour has hit his head.

Can you post without being intentionally antagonistic?

Yes but it's Chris Samba!

I love this team with the exception of Samba. Add Jack and Kodjia to it will be perfect. Come on Villa.

I reckon most of us over estimated the attendance in GTC! Although my mate is still on a coach due to traffic.
