It's really disappointing how poor we look without Jack.

We weren't great with him first half on Wednesday. Once again we look very flat with few if any ideas. Dean needs to give another of his half time team talks.

It's really disappointing how poor we look without Jack.

He just knits everything together in midfield, can run and beat 2-3 men as we saw on Wednesday which only McGinn can really do. Also gets our wide plays in the game with quick passing.

At least he isn't out for rest of the season then we would be knackered.

Despite lacking fluidity we could be three up. We are clearly missing Jack and I would like to see Kodjia on to give us a little unpredictability. I also want to keep El Ghazi on as he is doing well, so I'd replace Hourihane and play Kodj just behind Abraham.

But not surprising

We need to shed this 'one man team' mentality on and off the pitch.  Break that habit today by sneaking a win, hopefully.  Big second half. The likes of Boro, Albion and Derby all have easier games than us today but we have to take care of our own business and win at Villa Park.

I think Kodjia is out too, mate. I'm not sure why though. Injured?

He isn't in the squad CT.

Thanks...That's not good.

[Steve67]

Forest are imploding.

[kippaxvilla2]

MON doing well for Forest.

[BoVillan esq]

Come on Villa lets get this sorted.

[Villa in Denmark]

Another great save from their keeper.

[Toronto Villa]

I cannot fucking believe what I just saw

[Risso]

[SoccerHQ]

Hourihane ffs......six yards out and he hits it straight at the keeper.
