Aston Villa vs Notts Forest match thread

[Brazilian Villain]

Bit light in midfield with Kamara rested. Is the plan to keeps their wide players busy with more attacking full backs?

Based on the players who are not starting, I think we can probably hazard a guess as to the majority of the starters on Wednesday. It seems to me that Unai is prioritising the cups. However, in Unai we trust...

[Dante Lavelli]

Martinez captain.

[Baldy]

Unai making the most of having 5 substitutions available.

Still a quality starting eleven.

Villa to win

2-1

It's not prioritising the cups, it's using a squad where we almost have two players of equal quality for every position.

We need Ty and Disasi cos Forest are physical and Pow gets bullied too easily plus there's no real drop-off between Konsa and Disasi.

[Legion]

Blimey.

One and half eyes on Wednesday it seems .

Kamara?

[Somniloquism]

So, we're playing 2 big CB and Forest don't seem to have a big bustling CF ...

Probably for the inevitable corners etc.

[Villa Lew]

Hudson Odoi back for them.

Elanga v Maatsen anyone

One thing I'd say: Emery seems intent on playing Rogers on the right, but the player doesn't seem best-utilised in that role.
Just saying.

[SamTheMouse]

It highlights what an incredible squad we have

That was my first reaction, too. We pretty much have two very good teams.

The only niggling worry is how we'll perform without Kamara.

Let's smash these ducks!

Won’t it be Rogers left, Asensio ‘10’, Malen right?
