May as well get this going as Saturday isn't far off. Need to bounce back. Would love to see Jack return but it might be too early. Still we have the players to win this but we have to get into Wolves quickly and make a fast start. Wolves have improved of late so I think a draw is a likely outcome. I'll go for 1-1

Well, looking on the bright side, just as we tend to follow a good win with a shit performance and a loss, we also tend to follow a shit performance and a loss with an improved showing and a win. On that basis:

The mighty Villa 2 Dogheads 0.

I look forward to joining you bemoaning how we got beat by Spud Head, but then also how important a six pointer beating Spurs was.

Ramsey and Nakamba drop to the bench. Luiz and Sanson in.

Again, I would like to see Sanson starting this one.
Hopefully a 2-1 win.

I was more worried about last night than this one and with Wolves likely to give us more space in which to play we should see a better performance.

3-1

1-0 home win, Wolves haven't looked like they have much of a goal threat for most of the season.

Despite defending Elmo pre Leicester, he’s looked out of his depth the last few games and I have nothing against him. Think he’ll struggle to contain Netto, who for me is a good player. Targett was off the pace last night, but the Targett of the rest of this season will hopefully deal with Traore.
I agree largely with Ads team, and think Luiz has had enough of a rest and Sanson needs a run.
Just worry despite his iffy form, without Traore, Watkins will have even less support up front. But don’t think we can afford to play Traore And Barkley for this, one or the other.
Think we might lose or draw.
2-0 villa (Watkins, Barkley).

Trez Watkins El Ghazi

Sanson was rubbish last night when he came on. Luiz appears to be benefiting by not playing last night, there's a reason why he has been dropped twice recently ...

Traore for me should be the one to come out. Poor for weeks now. A lot depends on if Jack is back, if not then maybe Barkley to be given another go. Ramsey to maybe step out.

No idea as usual. Play like last night and it’ll be a sad humiliation.

There are not many from last night that don't deserve to be dropped.
Traore, AEG and Elmo were the pick of the bunch.
Only Mings, Konsa and Martinez come out with any credit.

So Luiz Trez and Barkley should start.
