Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

We had enough chances to win last time. We can win this time or at minimum grab a draw. But I’ve got my claret and blue tinted glasses on.

1-0 to us. Ollie

I'm getting a WBA in the playoffs vibe, except none of ours can take a penalty these days. Oh for Conor Hourihane.

Id get El ghazi for a few weeks too.

The last time we played any sort of cup game against them. Can't believe this was 30 years ago. Same score would do me.

2.1 to them

Torres up against Wood?  Unai needs to think about that one as I think we will get bullied.  I'd be really tempted to play Lindelof in this game. Buendia needs to be on the bench, far too soft for this sort of game.

Genuine question, who would you bring in instead of Beundia, presuming Onana will be back instead of Bogarde?

Push Youri further forward, Onana and Luiz as the two with McGinn and Rogers left and right.  Buendia does not affect the game enough, especially in tighter areas. He lost the ball far too many times yesterday and this is a feature of his game.

Luiz, Rogers to the Left.
