According to Jacob Tanswell SJM has an injury.

I think that’s probably bollocks.

My biggest gripe is Mings as he slows the game down too much.

I'd have preferred Luiz to Bogarde to be honest. Far more creative

It's still a strong starting XI, and a very strong bench. If our attitude is right we'll beat these.

That’s just it though.  Putting a weaker side out sets the bloody tone. 

Ah fuck it.  I’ll stop posting until after the game because Unai has earned our trust and I’m probably depressing everyone!

A nation's ire will descend upon Villa Park for "allowing" Spurs to win. We'll have to wait till the Burnley game for the win we need then...

I hope I'm wrong!

Banking that we beat Burnley next week then! Be good to win to apply the pressure of being caught to Liverpool instead of us.

A really poor line up. Going all out for Forest and Burnley. Emery playing poker.
