Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

Glad Konsa not starting. Tuchel is an absolute twat for keeping him on for so long in the last game when he was clearly injured. Hope Martinez and Rogers both get sent off in the first minute for a non-injury causing incident.

[Dave]

Blimey, no Konsa with James at RB, and Spence at LB.
Is anyone playing in their natural position?

Well...James at right-back instead of Konsa is putting someone in their natural position over someone who wouldn't be, no?

[Beard82]

Hmm - so is Konsa dropped for Stones?  A bit odd? 

[Dogtanian]

If Konsa doesn’t start, how can everything be his fault?

[Chip Butty 111]

Unless ORielly is injured I'd have him left back with Spence RB, James doesn'tlook fit. Both natural positions. Konsa probably not right after the last game and Rogers also out of position.
Dunno, seems strange ?

[Chris Smith]

Unless he’s not fully recovered from the other night.

[Nev]

Look at me, I'm clever selection.

Could be a massive success but might not be....

[Dogtanian]

Doomed.

[Nev]

It could be Graham Fenton at Wembley.

Or Paul Lambert V Bradford.

Is it really? The only person playing out of position is Rogers, even then he has played there before for Tuchel and he said he liked him there (I remember because I disagreed). I don't think it's some experimental line-up.

Our Ezri will be gutted missing out on this.

If it's injuries and fitness fair do's but Konsa and O'Reily haven't done anything wrong really.

Konsa at fault for every goal England have conceded.
