@dvtavfc.bsky.socialGood work from Manzambi to buy the foul there #AVFC
@johntownley.bsky.socialNo banners drooping across the width of the upper tier of the Holte End this afternoon. Looks strange.
@dvtavfc.bsky.socialJust seen the North Stand dubbed the "Hole End" 🤣 #AVFC
@jacobtanswell.bsky.socialJohan Manzambi largely operating as a right 10, aiming to create overloads down that side with McGinn and Cash. But he has already popped up on the left, so has freedom to drift across. Joao Gomes making his Villa Park debut and has to be good in finding those neat passes under pressure today. #AVFC
@dvtavfc.bsky.socialMcGinn should've played that back to Gomes rather than immediately trying to play Jackson in #AVFC
@epl.goalbot.dev⚽ KICKOFF — Aston Villa 0–0 Brentford. Premier League
@johntownley.bsky.socialWe're underway at Villa Park...
#AVFC 0-0 Brentford
@matt88.bsky.socialId genuinely forgot about #avfc league position. Not concerned at all. Strength and depth of this match day squad is fantastic.
@ukmongrel.bsky.socialCome on you Villans!!!!
@jamesstevo.bsky.socialIt’s good to be back #avfc
@epl.goalbot.dev📋 LINEUPS: Aston Villa vs Brentford
4-2-3-1 v 4-2-3-1

@therealpaule.bsky.socialWhen Arsenal re-did the North Bank at Highbury they put up a massive mural to hide the works.
Surely that’d be better than having this open North Stand building site #avfc
@wizross.bsky.socialHopefully #avfc emulates the U18's result from this morning. 6-0 and we didn't even play Madjo, even though he'd be eligible and isn't in the senior squad today. Not that we would, but crazy to think he could still feature at that level.
@johntownley.bsky.socialBrentford starting XI vs Aston Villa: Kelleher; Kayode, Schuster, Ajer, Diouf; Lewis-Potter, Yarmoliuk, Janelt, Schade; Anthony, Thiago.
Subs: Valdimarsson, Hickey, Van Den Berg, Jensen, Ouattara, Wilson, Carvalho, Sangare, Fredrick.
@jacobtanswell.bsky.socialTyrone Mings excellent aerially against Spurs so Brentford, a tough aerial opposition, makes sense to keep him in.
Emery has spoken about Manzambi improving every day but, pertinently, he also said he must allow Manzambi "to play free" - hopefully he has freedom to drift and find space. #AVFC
@talkvilla.bsky.socialGood to see Matty Cash return to Villa XI, boost having Bizot/Pau back from injuries suffered prior to the break.
Positive consecutive results before the break, strong line-up with top options on the bench to change if needed. Let's get that home win on the board. UTV!
@therealpaule.bsky.socialHere we go #avfc
@talkvilla.bsky.social🚨✅ Confirmed Villa XI vs Brentford: Suzuki; Cash, Lindelof, Mings; Ruggeri; Gomes, Kamara; McGinn, Manzambi, Buendia; Jackson.
Subs: Bizot, Pau, Bogarde, Wan-Bissaka, Barkley, Garnacho, Mbaye, Alysson, Abraham.
