Always Believesham Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Jumping to conclusions here but, could it be flint? Joe Bryan left a cheeky comment on his instgram about his ankle - which looks wrapped up. Johnson has never said "Flint's not in the team because his head's gone" everyone just assumed it's related to him 'having his head turned' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets dropped since the speculation started, gets a little shop window teaser on Tuesday, clattered Frankie and now conveniently he's possibly injured.Hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Ian M Posted August 25, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 It's all over that Facebook group that Flint wasn't at training so if it's an actual injury my guess is Flint, but if it's a he's in talks with another club injury then my guess is Flint. Watch it be Hegeler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHAZ MICHAELS Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 My money's on Famara being the injured man of mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Of course this could all be a very clever ruse to fool Villa. Speaking of Villa, providing Terrys playing, I think we'll try and run at the defence as much as possible. Don't think he has the legs to cope for 90 minutes being ran at.

Davefevs Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 My guess was going to be Smith, but seems unlikely now. O'Neil is retweeting 'match-day' stuff, so unlikely to be him. Flint or Eliasson for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inactive user Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 My initial thought was Joe. Hope it's just LJ throwing a bit of doubt into the Villa minds and we're full strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dolman Pragmatist Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I don't think he would have taken Diedhiou off at half time unless he was injured, so he looks the clear favourite to me. If he is out, I'd start with Reid and Taylor, though a sneaky part of me would love to see Aden Flint played up front against John Terry. That could be entertaining!

I think it was planned to keep Fammy fit for tonight . LJ let Fammy and Bobby have 45 mins each to keep them ticking over but not to over tire them .

Admin Ian M Posted August 25, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'm really hoping it isn't Famara. I had Watford away down as the second time Johnson has won a match here with his tactical substitutions and was hoping it was an indicator that he is improving (also note, zero players thrown under the bus so farthis season). It will be hugely deflating to me if it turns out Reid for Fam was an enforced change due to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's singularly the most important name in our starting XI. Jeez the consensus on here about Frankie is up and down like a yo-yo. That's not a dig at you btw. I dont get to many games and dont read every thread but it just seems every couple of games his popularity changes from liability to world beater and back again - or am I imagining it?

It's the split on here. Many think his distribution isn't good enough. I think a goalie just needs to stop the ball going im his net, FF is good at that. Claudio Bravo's distribution is excellent. Perhaps we'd rather have him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no coincidence that he's seen off competition from how many other keepers since he's been here..?! Every keeper will make the odd howler, they all do, but Frankie he's proven that he's perfectly good at this level and without spending £5million Plus to tempt another teams first choice keeper here, I don't think we'd get much better, who it proven at this level or above.

Sarumred Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Is it Reid, I wonder. Hence LJ talking about bringing in another attacking player in loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 The way it's being kept quiet you'd think it's an attacking player.. could well be Reid as I'd understand why that would be kept quiet. Same for Diedhiou. Suppose it could be Eliasson or O'Dowda but I don't know why they'd be kept quiet as they look like the second choice wide players right now.

Instead of 'he scores when he likes' it would be (deep breath now) - Bobby Reid he only scores against non leagues teams except Cheltenham, yeovil, Barnsley, Birmingham, Brentford and premier league teams when we play them in the cup!
