Aston Villa v Brentford - Pre Match Thread

[tomd2103]

              Johnstone

De Laet  Terry  Chester  Taylor

         Whelan  Hourihane

Elmo       Onomah       Green

                Davis

3-0 Villa. Snodgrass to come on for Elmo 2nd half.

Bree at RB, with Hourihane pushed on a bit in midfield and I'd go with that.

Lose Brentford.

Or we'll nick your manager

Forgive the stupid question but I'm over in Italy at the moment and whenever I check of the time of kick off on Saturday, it tells me 4 pm..

It's probably that my iPad is changing everything to Central European time but it is 3 pm isn't it?

How did you manage to get to Italy?

Easy but I was a day late.

Bruce to play 6 at the back with 3 right backs and no left back plus two holding midfielders and us to grind out a thrilling 1-0 win with Whelan scoring a last minute overhead kick...

[Villa75]

If we don't win this we could be bottom 3 by the end of the weekend.

Cheer up. Herbert could still be Chairman.....

Nice try at cheering me up.

It's only made me feel worse though. Knowing that, if Herbert was here, Bruce wouldn't be. 😉

3-1 to us!

I'm on holiday. Please win.

Despite our squad starting to look like an embarrassment of riches on paper for this level, I'm going to go for a 1-1.
Johnstone, Bree, Taylor, Chester, Terry, Whelan, Hourahane, Snodgrass, Green, Davis, Hogan

No excuse not to win this one comfortably.

At home to a team in 23rd, who lost 3 key players to the dog shit.

3-0

This really is a must win in the context of Brentford position and if we are genuine about a promotion challenge.
