I'd still persevere with Buendia ahead of Barkley, for the extra pressing and energy. And if they are going to sit back, I'd feel more confident about Buendia popping one in from 25 yards than I would Barkley.

Save Barkley for the last half an hour when an extra body a bit further back would be useful and in case DL or Onana need replacing.

Otherwise Ads' team.

We need to start well and quieten the home crowd.
They have nothing left to play for except a bit of pride. If they can contain us for any prolonged period of time, the crowd will get behind them, and every corner, long throw and free kick will be cheered on like they've won the FA Cup.
We need to be on the front foot and attack them early and hopefully get the early goal.
We need a decent ref too.
Well we've got Craig Pawson.

Martinez

Cash
Konsa
Torres
Maatsen

Luiz
Onana

Sancho
Rogers

Barkley
Tammy

Mind that gap to a nice 44 points please Villa.

That would be my team as well

Yep I would too.

Baring any injury between now and then - that has to be the team

But if Unai has a weak spot he is stubborn and always seems to stick with his plan A

Buendia / Mings and Bailey can have no complaints at all and maybe even more effective for Bailey and Buendia to come on at 70 mins either to hold the lead to chase it

Emery doing a lovely job showing off the new top. Looks tidy.

The women's team would beat Wolves and they aren't very good. Still better than Wolves though.
