Aston Villa v Forest Match Thread

Please just win Villa (and please align the threads!)

I called it! Well done Unai!

I'd say he's got a little more on the line than you though CH! If it backfires there'll be hell on (I think it's worth a try).

Oh fuck, I suggested Lindelof  in MF weeks ago. Feel proper under pressure now.

[TaxDodger]

Most of their injury doubts don’t seem to be starting, which I guess is positive.

[VancouverLion]

No Gibbs-White is encouraging, come on Villa!!!!!

Agreed.  We need someone physical enough to dominate the space and make space for Tielemans.  Bonus: give Anderson a good kicking as well.

[Clark W Griswold]

He's experienced, and others trying to do the DM role are failing miserably.
I'd have liked Maatsen left side mid/wing with Rogers middle. Buendia on recent form will give the ball away too much, would have been better for the last 25 mins if he need some invention to get a goal.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Massive call bringing Lindelof in. Hope he's better than he was against Spurs.

Still chuffed given everyone was being so disparaging!

A few changes from the last starting line up then.

Great reception for the team bus, COYL...

Wait until you see how disparaging we are if it doesn't work

Good call though.

Crazy gamble with Lindelof at 6 for me. Could have tried second half v Spurs if he wanted a trial run. Expect we will be calling for Luiz and Maatsen at half time and waiting to the 77th minute.

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

Welp. the Lindelöf in midfield lovers got their wish............

None of us are 'lovers', we haven't seen him enough in there to be anywhere close to that, I just know I didn't want to see Bogarde there.

WHilst hoping for a win, at the very least can we have a match with no ridiculous refereeing - so unlike the first leg please.
