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.
Agree entirely.
Konsa is the football equivalent to a Rolls Royce.
He looks an absolute class act and its a shame his brilliant effort late on last night didn't go in.

2-1 Villa. Watkins 2, Netto for them.

Midfield selection very much a case of best of a bad bunch at present. I’d go with Marv , SJM and Dougie. Front 3 of Bert, Anwar and Olly. I’d be pleasantly surprised if we win this one.

I see that Wet Spam are keeping a very close eye on Tammy Abraham. We need to keep tabs on him closely. With Chelsea likely to sign another striker, in the summer plus they’ll have Barkley back as well, we could do worse than get Tammy back. Ollie could then play wide left for us. Sounds good on paper anyway!!

0-0 for me, with a missed penalty.

Can't see this being a classic.

Wolves have picked up a bit recently apart from Man City in the week but have still been fairly ordinary.

Not sure where the goals are coming from for us right now.

0-1

Neither team scores many goals anymore. A nil-niller or a 1-0 to one or the other. Would be nice if Dendoncka the Plonka scored another OG.

Both teams hit and miss. Not often in the season you do the double aver an opponent unless they are rubbish or West Ham in the old days.  I’ll go 1-1

Sounds good on paper anyway!!

That could work, not necessarily with Tammy, but with Ollie out a bit wider. He's got everything you need in any of the wide attacking roles, eg hard work, pace, skill on the ball and eye for goal. He'd be much better there than any of the other three I reckon.

Didn’t our Ollie convert to a central striker from a wide player? Tammy on the middle, Jack tucked in behind, Traore bombing down the right and two deeper midfield ball winners; SJM and Morgan. I like it

He's more likely to play on the right than the left and Grealish would be left. Tammy can play wide too (at one point he said it was his preferred position) but having those 3 changing positions mid-game could be interesting.

Still wouldn’t start Sanson, for this season keep him coming from the bench. Luiz and Barkley back in. Think we’ll win 2-0  don’t care who scores
