Bailey starting is a big surprise. Nice to see Duran getting a start.

Come on Jhon - do what you do best.

Great bench if we need to make changes for a result.

[Border villan]

How strong is our bench!

[Chris_Jephcott]

Bit of squad rotation there. Good to see!

Resting Watkins? And Mings on the bench!

Edit… the initial graphic I saw didn’t have Ollie on it! He’s there now!

[PaulWinch again]

Bit of rotation, come on Villa.

[lovejoy]

Brave to rest players.

[TaxDodger]

Excited about Mings coming on when we’re 3-0 up in stoppage time.

[Mellin]

Tyrone 

[Clampy]

Shouldn't there be two keepers on the bench?

[IFWaters]

Is that everyone back and available now ? I mean fucking hell what a set of players

So good to see Tyrone back.

[VillaTim]

Sweet baby Jesus , Bailey again 

[aldridgeboy]

Picturing mings coming on as we’re comfortably seeing the game to an amazing reception

[Flamingo Lane]

I'm really surprised that Bailey gets another start. One can only assume from this that he is in fact fully fit, and Emery's idea is to keep playing him back into form.

[Astnor]

I guess McGinn will be left midfield/ wing and Bailey right wing.
