Neville G bigging up Villa Park on Sky.  His favourite ground other than Old Trafford apparently.

Probably because they always fucking won here.

Yup.  Be better if they all fucking hated the place

Good block by Tyrone

Wesley needs to start winning the ball from time to time.

Yep not a great start for him

[SamTheMouse]

Wesley doesn't look good enough to play the role Smith wants him to, unfortunately. The ball doesn't stick to him.

Struggling to see where a Villa goal might come from.

Jota looked good with Guilbert pre season , could be a reason to start Jota

It possibly is the reason, though Jota has done nothing to deserve a start based on his first two appearances . Looking forward to seeing Guilbert though it's concerning that Targett hasn't yet got a start ahead of Taylor.

Midfield/attack looks quite unbalanced , definitely think we need two sitting midfielders so would have had Hourihane in for that reason alone.

Big problem tactically already with only Luiz in the middle and struggling. Jota miles off pace and not only one

[Rigadon]

We look at bit lost to me.  We haven't really had the ball yet. 

[TonyD]

Wes is like a poor Heskey. 

[pauliewalnuts]

Jota looks incredibly lightweight.

Wesley can't hold the ball up for shit.

Guilbert, I like, but is on a yellow which isn't ideal.

Grealish and Trez not involved.

[Legion]

All Everton.

[Edvard Remberg]

Patience Please

[cdbearsfan]

Poor from Everton to get about seventy players back and spoil our attack.

[SamTheMouse]

I don't understand why we're playing so many long balls when our midfield is so strong.
