Newcastle United vs Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

Yep same here. If Buendia is out, I’d play Ramsey there with Sanson in midfield.

Yeah so would I - I think he’ll play Watkins and Ings though instead.

I don’t think he fancies sanson any more than dean did

[Clark W Griswold]

Is Buendia the only new injury from Wednesday?
If so I’d play the same team with Young coming in for him I think.

There seems to be one if those group think things that occasionally happens on here regarding Ings, if you think Watkins is getting dropped after Wednesday I think you're going to be disappointed.

For me Young is a back up full back, a good one
but he’s no prem midfielder
Sanson or Chuck for me

[N'ZMAV]

I'd pick Ings over Watkins today, and play Chuck if Buendia is out. Chambers to come in for Konsa.

He should be, he's been awful for weeks.

He's not been great, I know, but he still makes it harder work for the centre halves than Ings would and he makes the space for the others to play. We just look a better team with him on the pitch.

I'm with you on playing them together though, fuck that.

[Villa Lew]

If Emi is out, would like to see Sanson start, the number of starts he's had for us, you could almost count on the fingers of one hand, also a good opportunity to see what Chambers can do, with Konsa out for 2 games. The good news is Coutinho is fit, if he's on song watch out Geordies.

Trippier might figure

I wouldn’t be too upset with any of the three but I think Young is the best for the wider position but likes to get stuck in and has the experience. I think it could be tricky today, they’re picking up at the moment and I fancy Young in there under the circumstances.

[Scott Nielsen]

We never do well up there and I'm still suffering from the Leeds-game. I thought defensive frailties like that were a thing of the past so now I'm back to not trusting this team and expect us to lose badly today.

Good as it will mean he is not 100%.

Absolutely not in my opinion. He's a nothing player when played in one of the attacking roles. I'll be really disappointed if he starts today.

and me
Same trap that Smith fell into
If you have a £16 million player fit who has played reasonably well in the past Looking to prove himself more and a young player coming through showing he can do it at this level,
And you bring in a 36-year-old full back out of position in front of them both there is something massively wrong
That’s where we go backwards
