WM have commentary on DAB, Radio Derby has coverage but not online, so guess i'm not following it properly!

Thank you

Does anyone know who is playing where - players that is, I can cope without the joy of someone saying 'the Villa are in Burton'.

Cheers, UTV.

From the commentary the 'tactic' seems to be to launch high balls to a lone RHM against 6 foot + defenders

Good to see Brucey is keeping it varied.

Worked well against Yeovil so why change it.

Judging by the Beeb site we're missing a thriller. 0 shots, 0 corners for either side.

I'm listening on the villa app on my android phone. As usual you need perfect hearing even on max volume. I didn't have to pay.

I'm listening to WM commentary and I still don't know whether we're playing right-to-left or left-to-right.

Snoddie's playing well in claret and blue.

Maybe he's done a David Cameron on who he's playing for

From the official Twitter:
A pretty uneventful opening 15 minutes, with neither side registering an effort on goal. Tuanzebe has assumed a holding midfield role in front of De Laet, Elphick, Bree and Taylor. El Ghazi, Adomah and RHM operating as a front three.

So even they are so confused they are forgotten Lansbury and Hourihane, presumably in front of Tuanzebe. So 4-1-2-3?
