CAFC vs Villa U21s | EFL Trophy | Tues 10th October 2023 | KO 7:00 PM - Prematch Discussion

A good performance and more goals notched will do no harm at all. Have no idea who is in Villa’s U21 team, but don’t have much clue who is in any of the oppo League One teams either, so no change there.
Anybody else getting behind the lads tonight?

Hopefully another good opportunity for the kids who are standing out in the U21s, to get some more experience playing alongside the First Team in a competitive setting.1

Bloody hell. I had completely forgotten that we hadn't managed to shift Kirk.7

If it were my club I'd loudly and publicly declare that we would be playing our U21's and would be telling fans that we consider it an U21 tournament, take any fine that comes with that decision and expunge the game from our first team records. It's an affront to the game.1

With no game this weekend I want a strong lineup.
AMB could do with a night off but with no Isted that would mean Henry Molyneux who has never particularly impressed me
Villa will likely play a 4-4-2 and the goal threat comes from midfield with Omari Kellyman being a particular jewel in the crown. He's switched allegiance from Northern Ireland to England and looks a bit of a prospect as does Kobei Moore who plays up front.
I'm actually quite looking forward to the game but then I always am!3 -
Maynard-Brewer
Asiimwe - Elerewe - Ness - Roddy
Fraser - Dobson - C.Campbell
T.Campbell - Leaburn - Tedic
Subs: Molyneux - Jones - Laqeretabua - Chin - L.Watson - Kirk - Casey - May
Is what I wonder if we'll go for
Left-Back is a difficult one with Thomas absent.0 -

Dobson has to be rested surely.7

If the game ends a draw it goes to penalties with the winner gaining an additional point

Villa got the extra point for the penalty shoot out win after the draw with Sutton1

I'd go something like
AMB
Asiimwe - Jones - Elewere - Bower
Fraser - L.Watson- T. Campbell
C.Campbell- Leaburn - Kirk
Subs
Moluneux
Ness
T.Watson
Dobson
Rylah

If he doesn't, then hopefully even he can take the hint that his future here at Charlton is, shall we say, somewhat limited.1 -
Rylah and Casey both played last night as did Bower so I'd be surprised if they feature however Bower is a natural left back and poses a threat at set pieces so might get the nod

Yeah I only have him in there because he's a natural left back really. Bit annoying there was a U21s game last night otherwise I wouldn't have minded seeing someone like Adigun involved so we didn't have to have Dobbo in the squad at all (not a like for like obviously as a player but it's a bit light on midfielders)1 - Sponsored links:
