Brentford vs Aston Villa LC Rd3 - pre match chat

[Chip Butty 111]

It's been flat since we lost to Palace at Wembley for me, please just score. An ugly win would be wonderful.

3-0 to the Villa Boys.

Then we get Man City away in the next round.

I'd play;

Martinez

Cash, Lindeloff, Torres, Maatsen

McGinn, Bogarde

Guessand, Elliott, Sancho

Malen

I like the look of that

[dorsetvillian]

That's the team I'm expecting. Long drive from West Wales for a night game.  Hopefully we actual score a goal! and definitely need to play better than any of the games this season. Looking forward to seeing Sancho play. Please win Villa...

Squad players have an opportunity to stake a place v Sunderland. They should go for it. We can put this Pau being a much better option for a more cohesive defence to attack that has been mentioned on here. Might as well give it a go.

He probably will play but Torres was bullied in the league game against these a couple of weeks back. Lindelof/Torres not exactly suited to a battle.

Wouldn't be surprised to see three CBs given a go. Lindelof/Torres/Mings. Cash and Maatsen wide and 3 from Sancho/Guessand/Elliot/Malen up front.

Wouldn't be surprised if CDBF puts you on 'Ignore' now.

😄 I'm not proposing it! Cash's efforts at RWB won't be one for the purists. Maatsen should be ok on the other side. Just wouldn't surprise me if Emery thought both lindelof and Torres needed minding a bit.

No chance.

3 nil to Brentford

[N'ZMAV]

Will serious questions start being asked of Unai if we have a repeat performance and blank score sheet?

Is Hemmings fit? If he is, I'd be starting him.
