Yup, our last away win in the league was that smash-and-grab at Arsenal. Since then, 3 draws and 1 loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a mistake for me personally. Especially if Kovacic is fit. Performing well for a stretch of games, hell even two in a row, has never been Barkely's forte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Azpi will play. And we are playing with one number 6 and two number 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean by deeper? One number 6 (Gilmour/Jorginho) and two number 8 is the way to go (like we played last couple of games). Number 8 is best position for all Mount, RLC, Barkley. Not sure about Kovacic. He's probably best suited for 4-2-3-1 but that system is archaic in modern football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably best suited for 4-2-3-1 but that system is archaic in modern football. When Ross plays with Mount (in a 4-3-3) he doesn't seem to play as advanced as he does when he's the most attacking midfielder, which seems to suit him a lot more. Aside from that little purple patch under Sarri i can't think of a single performance of his playing with 2 of Kova, Jorgi, Kante that he's impressed me, he overthinks things and doesn't seem to be able to handle the pressure of having to be the main guy for end product from midfield. communicate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there's a difference probably because Kovacic and Kante are different type of players. They don't offer much going forward in 4-3-3. But I felt Mount and Barkley played completely same position last two games just on different sides. Tomo and communicate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Villa looked horrible against Leicester. It would pain me if we couldn't take care of business against this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
