Hull City vs Aston Villa Pre Match Thread
« on: July 29, 2018, 05:07:52 PM »
Week to go. Let’s kick it off. I’m hoping the second half vs Dresden and the much more balanced and improved performance puts an end to the 3-5-2 nonsense. No other signings aside my team would be as follows, which I fully expect will not be what he puts out as he tried to shoehorn in 3 RB’s at CB and Whelan.

Steer
De Laet
Chester
Jedinak
Hutton
Bjarnason
Hourihane
Adomah
Green
Grealish
Kodjia

4-4-1-1

8 days...longest build-up to a match thread ever?! Hopefully our squad will look a bit different this time next week in a good way and we have a half-decent left-footed left full-back.

Two decent enough sides picked by TV and Ads but I hope we have a couple of new additions by the time we kick off.  Jedinak in midfield for me but I’d hope for another centre back to come in.

Agree we definitely shouldn't play 352

I'd play Whelan. I think he's looked good in pre season

De Laet at right back

Elphick over jedinak for me - I think

Just win please Villa.

Start the season with a win.

We have failed to do that the past two years and we have been playing catch up.

START WITH A BLOODY WIN.

I reckon a combination of Hull not being one of the better teams in this division and the boost in morale from the takeover will result in a Villa win. Also, I am sure everyone will be delighted to know that I have not included a Villa win in my weekend bets.

I should hope not. The match is on Monday.
