I think Smith likes the theory of Barkley more than the reality but can see why he went with him again, I will lazily guess he's our most experienced PL player today, by maybe 100 games Sanson did more in 1 minute after he came on than Barkley did all game against Brighton.

DCJonah Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Missing two key players is tough. I can completely understand Dean not wanting to change lots more. We've got 4 pts from the last 2 without conceding. You don't rip that up because the usual crowd on VT can't control their emotions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDR V2 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I'm glad I don't bet anymore, this would deffo be a tenner down the drain. I'm going for 3-1 Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbdrum88 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I'd of dropped barkley, paired Luiz with sansom, pushed mcginn forward to barkkleys spot and played trez instead of traore, or moved traore left, to give us a team full of energy and running as without grealish I feel we'll be on the backfoot trying to catch them on the counter alot today, but let's see what happens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmygreaves Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Really hope I'm wrong, but with that team selection I don't see anything other than our midfield being totally overrun. I don't think Watkins will have many touches today... Again..... I really hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobsons Choice Posted February 21, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2021 I love Deano, but I think it would be hard on the basis of this selection to convince the squad that it’s a meritocracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mig4villa Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I suspect that Smith has known since the last match that Jack could well be out. I'm sure there will be a game plan in place that the squad have been working on all week, and that Dean has picked what he feels is the best team available to him, in order to attempt to execute that plan.... I'm looking forward to watching, hopeful that we can put in a good performance and get something out of the game. It's actually looked to me to be a bit of a problem in the last few games that nearly everything seems to go through Jack, if only because teams are now doubling up on him. - Time to see if the rest of the squad can step up to this massive challenge, against a really good team, without him.

thunderball Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Don’t flap. We have goals in AEG, Traore, Barkley, McGinn and Watkins, this just depends on how we take our chances. In all honesty we have to wake up, we can’t be as bad as last week, this may be exactly what we need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishVillain Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 It's gonna be tough but we can win here. I just hope Jack didn't tell his mate Maddison he'd be out, giving Rodgers days to perfect a strategy that didn't involve double-marking him.
