Aston Villa v Yr Adar Gleision (FA Cup 5th Rd) Pre-Match Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

After last night's disappointment, it represents an excellent opportunity to make it through to the quarter-finals.

3-1 home win and an upturn in the collective mood.

Sorry, delete please. I scanned the current posts for a second mention of Cardiff and didn't see it, so...

UE needs to rotate to the max he can here, I feel. Wouldn't mind if everyone on the subs bench last night (Zych excepted) started

3-0 (yes, I know, -0, whacky aren't I?)

[Legion]

Merged.

[Legion]

0-2

[Rigadon]

I wouldn't be surprised if we see a few players starting that we'd consider to be more 'squad' than 'first team'. 

[darren woolley]

They owe us a performance after last night.

I think Emery has had a change of heart where the FA Cup is concerned and that would explain some odd decisions last night, he definitely had Friday on his mind.

So following that logic I see a strong team and much better showing, out of form players such as Bailey don't deserve a place and a back four is required, no fucking about with formation.

......the Manager may have his mind on Tuesday though....oh ffs!

3-1

[Sexual Ealing]

Yep, it’s all about Tuesday for him I’m guessing. I’m expecting another disappointing selection on Friday (though, he can’t very well do anything other than prioritise Tuesday).

[Brend'Watkins]

Get the job done asap then they can Araf all they want.

[TaxDodger]

I'd go;

Martinez (fitness permitting)
Garcia
Maatsen
Konsa
Mings
McGinn
Tielemans
Asensio
Bailey
Rashford
Malen

[Demitri_C]

Please no olsen in goal. The guys the worse

I would go rash and asensio this one and malen up top. Ollie and rogers on bench

[Paul.S]

4-0 Villa

[ChicagoLion]

Out of the Palace This and Bruges, this will be the lowest priority in terms of team selection.
