Ricky at LB then.

Robbo'll get 75 minutes then.

Yes, but at least it's correctly identified Robbo as "clogger"...

Should be an interesting match. Hopefully Gardner has a stormer at left back. I think it is probably to help Holden out a bit sticking Pratley in there with him. Villa's side certainly looks beatable

Hope this side plays well so some of them can force their way into the match against Arsenal.

NRC not even on the bench. Hopefully that's because he's been our best player so far this season and deserves a rest, and not because OC thinks Pratley and Mavies are better footballers

Interesting that Cahill is the only one who played 90 minutes on Saturday. Squad's improved a lot.

Really like that XI. Which means we'll likely get trollied and I'll get a lot of I-told-you-so's

Hopefully Villa put out their u-15s

Wait, has OC actually changed formation and dropped a forward?!

I wouldn't be too hasty Kakuta can play as a striker.

Edit didn't see Robinson in the team :)

I'd have thought that if he was going to go two up top he would have gone for Tuncay.

Beat me to it. Penny has dropped with Coyle?

We'll see how this one pans out.

Bolton's made a good start, Villa will score against the run of play soon.
