Not sure he has many changes to make. There's no depth at all in the squad. Probably go with the usual 11 and maybe have a couple.of shots at goal.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

His first starting XI will probably be a familiar one to start off with..

Pickford

Young - Tarkowski - Branthwaite - Myko

Gana ------- Mangala

Harrison ---- Doucoure ---- Ndiaye

DCL​

He'll likely then look at the likes of Patterson, Lindstrom & Beto midway through the second half.

No chance he starts Doucoure...

I reckon swap Doucoure for O’Brien and we go 5 at the back and get the full backs whipping in crosses for DCL

I wouldn't be surprised to see this kind of change in approach, but Mykolenko just doesn't have that in his locker.

Na I think if he goes 5 at the back it'd be Patterson instead of O'Brien..

Pickford

Tarkowski - Branthwaite - Myko
Patterson --------------------------------- Young

Gueye ---- Mangala

Harrison ------- DCL ------- Ndiaye

I love how it's gone from blaming Dyche for the line up/options and expecting a win to not expecting much because of the squad and his hands are tied

I agree, It’s funny how people moan every week about the lineup then pretty much pick the exact same ones.

Hopefully Moyes can use them differently or use some kind of Jedi mind trick to stop us wasting any chances we do get.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Harrison coming on twice?

I meant Harrison Armstrong and Beto on late - it is very confusing......

I think it will be a 5-2-3 (3-4-3) but with O'Brien instead of Young

Pickford

Tarkowski - Branthwaite O'Brien - O
Patterson --------------------------------- Young

Gueye ---- Mangala

Harrison ------- DCL ------- Ndiaye​

Finally looking forward to a game (noooooo, don't do it to yourself)...been a while.

I'm thinking and hoping it be something like this. Maybe Beto and Lindstrom in for DCL and Harrison

 

[Vintage]

Is DCL actually out? I was hoping he just knew it was the end for Dyche and wanted the week off or something. Yes not good from him but this is a real pain as means Beto will have to play the full game and next to no options to change it off the bench upfront or even in the final third unless McNeil could be fit enough to return for this or Spurs.

I think once the initial first 10 minutes of euphoria of Moyes being back and perhaps a quick start with plenty of crosses and odd shot at goal reality will eventually settle in and they'll be a gulf on the pitch in the key areas.

Duran is back for this so he'll start ahead of Watkins I reckon, both CFs love playing against this type of backline.

Dcl was training yesterday and seems to be available for tomorrow

Im not sure. I saw somewhere a heat map for Myko playing for Ukraine and hes constantly rampaging across the half way line. But yeah im not convinced by Myko.

 

[jtl60]

Villas strength is the midfield, all full of energy and love to join the attack, I'd pack our midfield tight

Pickers.
Patto, Tarks, Branthwaite , Myko
Mangala - Gana - Doucs
Harrison Ndiaye
DCL
