Stadium: Villa Park
Date: Friday 14th August 2015
Kick-off: 19:45pm BST
Friday night means we have extra time to prepare for the Champo League qualifier, which is good.
Is that why we have Friday fixtures now? To help teams playing on a Tuesday or is it purely for TV reasons?
EDL are coming to Birmingham on Saturday apparently...
I'm so tired of these wayward kickoffs. Can we just have a 3pm Saturday please. We never seem to play well when we kick off early on Sat or Sun...but Friday....bloody hell.
Jones/Rojo for Blind. Blind won't be able to handle Gestede.
Friday? Wtf
because of the CL play-oof match Tuesday.

Oh, fair enough then... thanks!
Didn't even know about these Friday kick offs
I've picked the same team with the same subs. See if it works away from home.I'm on call on Saturday next week so this is good for me
Same back four
If I had a choice the front six would be :
Schneiderlin - Carrick - Herrera
Memphis - Rooney - Mata
I expect LvG won't make any changes though.
Another win, no matter how ugly, would be great.
It's to do with a protest march on the Saturday in Birmingham, the police requested that the fixture be switched to avoid clashes and potential trouble.
Be interesting how he juggles the squad with the CL qualifer.-------------------------Romero-----------------------
Darmian--------Smalling---------Blind----------Shaw
-------------Schweinstegier------Schneiderlin--------
----------------------------Mata-------------------------
Pedro--------------------Rooney--------------Memphis
Sorry Herrera would love to put you in there too, but just can't.
If Pedro isn't here it'll be the same as today

Friday night kickoff, definitely looking forward to this one.
