[Albion] Aston Villa vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

I've tried but no idea how that team lines up to be honest maybe:

Steele
Gross Webster Colwill Veltman
Enciso Ayari Mac Allister Buonanotte
Undav Ferguson

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Is there a point in resting players for the last game of the season?

 

[The Fits]

Really looking forward to seeing Ayari start.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Groß at left-back?

Colwill left back and Pascal right back is my guess

 

[Hugo Rune]

———————-Steele—————-
Veltman—-Webster—Colwill—Groß

Buonanotte—-Undav———-Enciso

Yes. So am I, very much.

 

[Mancgull]

Hopefully keep it tight early on and then unlease our subs. Strong bench.

With nothing to play for there's no need to make them run 90 minutes if they're carrying a knock or fatigued, that's just for their personal health (and for example in the case of Dunk also for his international matches.) It's also the perfect opportunity to give PL minutes to someone who hasn't gotten many during the season, like Ayari.

Lost count of the amount of times I've thought wtf is that line up and we do well, interesting to say the least and Villa will be thinking get in,big mistake thinking we'll rollover come on boys wrap this fantastic season up with a win.

 

[jimhigham]

Nice for Ayari to have a bit of a strut.

Bbc has Ayari at right back

The last time Gross started at left back must have been at Burnley. Was not an success - Potter changed it at half time. And we won.

 

[Icy Gull]

I like that team

I'm convinced you are Swanman

 

[Nobby]

Surely the back line must be
Gross Veltman Webster Colwill

Quite, nothing riding on this game.

I love it.

Interesting line up with both Webster and Veltman starting - we will need Veltmans dark arts at the back today I think - and the experience of Gross to captain from the back in Dunks absence.

Clearly a day to prove our youngsters can take on AV and counter attack anything they try and lob at us. RDZ seems to want to end the season on an optimistic note for the future depth of the squad with Ferguson, Buonanotte, Enciso and Ayari all starting.

looking forward to seeing some starlet action ..

Veltman has played really well at left back. So probably Gross on the right

They've got Gross at RB now - Veltman at LB. Webster always seems to have a dodgy game coming back in. Shame no Caicedo alongside Mac Allister - be nice to see possibly our best ever CM pairing together one last time.

Overall thoughts on that line-up? Gulp.........................!
