Team for Villa

interesting decisions after last week. Surely Colbeck is in after that performance, Gardiner back in midfield with McLean on the bench. What do you think lads?

 

For me, Gardner is a right back now and when fit and available, that should be his position.

 

--------------- Mig -----------------

Gardner - O'Shea - Cuellar - Rose

----- N'Diaye - Vaughan -------

Larsson --- Sessegnon --- Johnson

----------- Graham -------------

 

Colback had more interceptions (7) than any other Prem player last week, so deserves his chance. Think Gards will play there though

 

Funny how its a game of opinions but I think he is a pretty poor full back with little pace, poor positional sense and is totally wasted there.

Get him back into a new look midfield as soon as possible where I think he is a terrific footballer.

McClean is definitely the man to make way imo.

 

this

 

Without a shadow of a doubt

Flog him, not just cos hes not good enough but because I think he could bring trouble to the club, as he has already shown.

Whatever position Gards ends up playing, they have to make their minds up and stick with it. Im not a fan of continually moving players about, once in a blue moon, yes, but let players settle in one position.

 

i'd go along with this

 

I disagree, Gardner to start from the bench and stick with winning team

-----Gardner - N'Diaye-------

only change i would make to that would be colback at RB, his performance last week warrants a start imo

 

This for me much rather see Gardner being used were he's effective not as as full back

 

--------------- Mig -----------------

Colback- O'Shea - Cuellar - Rose

----- N'Diaye -Gardner -------

Larsson --- Sessegnon --- Johnson

----------- Graham -------------

 

Same team as one that played vs Everton

Maybe Gardner in for Seb

 

Here's the choice as I see it

Choice 1 - we don't change a winning team

Choice 2 - as this is a game we would happily draw, would it be correct to tighten up a bit by replacing McLean with gardener.

Being the risk averse chap that I am I would go for option 2, but di Canio believes I. Attacking, so I expect us to be unchanged

 

Gardner and Ndaiye is our strongest midfield when Catts is out injured so ww should go with the strongest team. McClean makes way for me and we go:

Migg
Colback Jos Cuellar Rose
Ndaiye Gardner
Larsson Sess JJohnson
Graham

 

Agree with this.
They`ve all earned their start.

But, if there is a team change it will be because PDC has done his homework, seen an opportunity, and will expoit it.
If someone is brought in to do a job, they will know exactly what that job is, and they will do it to the best of their ability.

It amazes me that I am actually thinking this.

 

Don't think Johnson will play on the left under Paolo, he likes his inverted wingers I think

 

exactomundo fatha, i think colback worked all week on it!
