I think it’s the best the club can do so fair enough. Think I’ll still take my lad down, something to do and will be nice to be in the ground for a bit

Sensible decision. Hopefully they can get some form of game early next week.

It is a slight worry, the amount actual match minutes the players will have in their legs come Watford. I'm sure the sports science team are on top of it, but I would really hate to see the boys blowing out of their arses come 80 minutes next Saturday.

Unfortunately it’s unavoidable and we’ve just got to manage it as best we can.

They've done well to sort that out so quickly. Grazie, I Granata.

If Buendia and/or Traore are fit for next week we should be able to cope without Bailey for a bit. Knowing Villa they'll all be out until Christmas.

No wesley or beundia training at VP today?

All are here as beundia interviewed on pitch and Wesley did the walkaround. Leon send message via video. Hope not injured already.
