Aston Villa went into last seasons campaign after being relegated from the Premier League, after what can only be described as a disastrous season.
‘The Villans’ however, had high hopes of returning to the top-tier of English football at the first time of asking, but unfortunately for their loyal fans, finished 13th, way below what everyone expected, and subsequently find themselves in the Championship for a second season.
Even after the failings of last time out, however, Villa were many people’s favorites to win the league this season before the campaign begun, but haven’t started in the best way, drawing 1-1 with Hull on the opening weekend, then losing 3-0 to Cardiff the following weekend, and then losing 2-1 at Reading on Tuesday night, which leaves the Midlands club with just one singular point so far.
There’s still plenty of time for Steve Bruce’s men to redeem themselves, however, and they will be hoping to start by picking up all three points this weekend when Norwich City travel to Villa park, and this is how I believe Villa could line up in a 4-4-1-1 formation.
