3-1 to the Villa. Bruce knows what needs to be done, he's been there before, he's got the players. Vultures get stuffed!

4-1 to Villa, Davis to get a well deserved goal, two up front and playing the Villa way, Snodgrass to have a stormer of a debut reminiscent of Monsieur D. Six.

I am going to ignore what's happened so far and regard this match as relaunch and start of our success under Bruce the Great. Come on Villa. 3-0

You can't stuff bees. Believe me, I've tried.

Should be a good time to play them, with them having lost Jota and Dean. That said, we all know about the Championship form-book, so take nothing for granted.

I'd like to see us go largely with the team that beat Norwich, which would mean starting with Lansbury (who seems to be decent at home but dreadful away) and leaving Onomah on the bench to start with.

There are a number of 'winnable' games this month, so it's crucial game to create some momentum.

I think that would be a big mistake, we need legs in the middle against them, Onomah would be the first name on the team sheet for me for this one.

Here's hoping the engine doesn't get a bee in its bonnet.
