If we maintain our structure and discipline, we will impose our idea in the moment and emerge victoriously.

Their away record in the PL is appalling. 27 defeats from the last 33 played.

It’s going to take something unbelievable from them to win and/or something horrible from us.

Neither appears remotely likely.

I’d go Diaby and Bailey tomorrow. Smash them out of the ground. Then have The Donk come in for Man U if Tielemans isn’t back.

I know it's a long shot but anyone in Dubai looking to catch the game?

this is key , going all gung - ho with the team selection could backfire

If we can't play The Donk in this game, there's no way we should be putting him in against United relatively cold.

I would play both Bailey and Diaby though, and give Ramsey a bit more time to recover.

Keep Moreno for this game, and bring Digne back for the Man U game.

Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Carlos, Moreno; Dendoncker, Luiz, McGinn; Diaby, Bailey; Watkins.

I agree re players going in cold.

We're going to have no Kamara for three games, whatever we do to fill that void, it needs to be something we can carry across three games, not just something to beat these no-good chumps.

Don't know if it means anything in terms of severity of injuries but Tielemans was visiting the children's hospitals today with the team, but there was no sign of Torres.

In other news, that young keeper Sam Proctor has signed his first professional contract with the club.

It's not even remotely likely that you'll ever marry a supermodel.

Win the midfield and the rest takes care of itself. It's that simple. Our results demonstrate it to. Mike Bassett style..4.4. Fucking 2 but with Unai's tactics. No musical chairs, no square pegs in round holes, just replace Booby with the Donk, Bailey or Diaby to start. Give Moreno 70 minutes. Carlos in for Torres.

3-0 Villa.
