If DF sets us up to get a point we will be hammered - we have to take the game to Villa and let them worry about us.

Struijk for Bijol the only change.

Not a shock

DF prepared everyone for minimal changes with his weird comments the other day.

Let's hope the setup is better even if the selection is still quite cowardly.

We need a below form Villa, all teams can have an off day so fingers crossed.

Well at least we have some potentially game changing attacking options on the bench.

What we must avoid is conceding an early goal and going behind , that will really quieten our support and create nervous tension which will creep into the players.

Jeez, I am nervous about today, the ramifications of a bad result is something I am trying hard not to think about.

Let’s hope we start on the front foot and get the fans behind the team and turn ER into a cauldron early doors.

Sky Sports Main Event -1pm
Leeds v Aston Villa
And the whole programme so far is all about Arsenal v Tottenham. That totally fucks me off.

Unfortunately he normally doesn't use the bench until it's to late. How sh*t must James be in training when Aaronson is still starting in front of him !

So I am watching the build up on Sky, unsurprisingly with Thierry Henry in the studio all the focus has been on the later game between Arsenal and Spuds.

As I write there is now some focus on our match with some Farke chat.

Oh no! What will we do if we need someone to come on the 85th minute and turn the ball over?

Aaronson is a safer pick as he plays very narrow and helps out in centre mid.

We need to score first despite Farke setting up for a 0-0
