Not sure what try with us means.

Doesn’t sound like it means a fitness test.

We will see?

I'm convinced Traroe is going to cause some issues. Basically he's going to score or assist. It's been on my mind. It's irks me as he saves his performance to do something against us when he should have scored several against Man City.

An attacking player scoring or assisting is always a very distinct possibility.

Is it his 13 goals in 6 years that has you rattled? I think he's got 1 assist against us in that time, back when Matt Targett was left back. He might score of course, but his record doesn't suggest getting prematurely irked about it.

Not when it's Adama Traore it isn't.

While I'm not hugely concerned about Traore, I do wonder whether you might be angering Paddy's footballing Gods a little here with your hubris.

Its travel with not try.

"They are getting better. [Boubacar] Kamara and [Tyrone] Mings are available, they are going to travel with us to Fulham.

[John] McGinn is training this week normally with us and feeling good. [Ezri] Konsa and Jadon [Philogene] as well are feeling good. It is the first time this year where more or less we have everyone available.

[Amadou] Onana is okay as well. It's good news."


Up The Villa!

So its positive of all our players, and will try not to think so much more of Traroe,  but ita great to hear the players are feeling good! Making me feel good!

I reckon the Gods of logic and reason, who lets be fair are not having a great time of it of late, are going to see this issue as some sort of tipping point and will be spurred into action, countering those notoriously flaky footballing ones.

With a fully fit squad Unai has some interesting choices to make. Too early for Mings and Kamara, I would think, but encouraging for the next couple of weeks.

Four wins is a big ask - but it would really set the season up. Even unbeaten in the next four games, including a couple of wins, would be great.

Would be nice to be a few goals up against either Bologna or Bournemouth and give them both (particularly Mings) five minutes at the end of the game to get a bit of a clap.

Seriously impressive when you see our squad depth put like that.
