Aston Villa v Brentford Match Thread

[PaulWinch again]

Win please.

[Toronto Villa]

Fair play to our fans for showing up in huge numbers despite the shit we’ve churned out. Another sell out today. Let’s hope our boys can rise to the occasion, dust off the start and make a really good impression for whenever becomes our new manager.

[Villa Lew]

No McGinn, Martinez captain, would have started with Chambers.

[Monty]

It's absolutely 442. Well, we'll see, can work. The midfield 2 makes sense, and there's good material in there for counterattacking. God help us if we concede first though.

[Ozzjim]

It's 4-2-3-1 surely. Dend and Luiz sit, Buendia at 10.watkins and Bailey wide, Ings up top

[bilsim]

It's absolutely 4 2 3 1 and it's been crying out to be our formation for months. Hopefully a positive outcome.

[PaulTheVillan]

Let’s hope WatkIngs works today

[ez]

Let's hope our season gets started then. Utv

[Chris_Jephcott]

UTV FTF ETC…

[GarTomas]

Gives us options to go 4231 or 442

Good the midfield had been refreshed it’s stunk for months.

Would have had Chambers for Konsa but bit much else different.

[john e]

Not impressed with the team lineup but hopefully it’s more about attitude today

[gpbarr]

He left out Mings - credit where credit due

What would you have done differently?

[GarTomas]

He left out Mings - credit where credit due

Except he didn’t?

[Legion]

He left out Mings - credit where credit due

He's starting. Do you mean McGinn?
