Probably the 11 I'd have picked.
Dion Sanderson starting for Birmingham with Neil Etheridge on the bench:
Starting XI: John Ruddy, Dion Sanderson, Marc Roberts, Auston Trusty, Maxime Colin, Jordan James, Alfie Chang, Juninho Bacuna, Przemyslaw Placheta, Scott Hogan, Troy Deeney (Captain).
Substitutes: Neil Etheridge, George Friend, Josh Williams, George Hall, Jonathan Leko, Jobe Bellingham, Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Think Ojo a bit unlucky to be left on bench. Expecting a big game now from this Villa lad.
With 2 up top Ng is going to have to be a lot stronger in the air than he has been previously.
Watters starting surprises me but I really hope he shows us something today.
I wouldn't go so far as to say it's his last chance but he would only be a bit-part player for sure.
For me keeping a clean sheet has to be priority though today and even though a 1 nil would be fantastic, I think I'd take a nil nil.
Nelson just had to be "rested" but Ng will have his work cut out with the physical presence of Deeney.
I think Philogene in one game performed at the same level as Ojo in his two games. A toss up really. No one really outperforming the other.
Hoping to see more chances created and a defence that's better under the high ball. Worried their forwards could have their way with us today.
Come on City! At the very least BE UP FOR IT I beg
Deeney and Hogan going to be a problem I think.....
Brilliant goal...very impressive so far....
Definitely need to make use of all 5 subs today.
Get in!
Our build-up play is much better today.
Watters is shit.
Looking OK so far.
We are 100% going to concede a goal from a mistake passing out from the back at some point this season.
Started well again. Need to keep it up this time.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESFwefweFwefeWFwf
What an absolutely fantastic team goal
The O'Dowda runs MY DAYS and the fact he looks up before passing!!!!!!
About as good as 15 minutes as I’ve seen for a long time, excellent goal, cut Brum open a few times. Be hard to keep it up but long may it continue or at least we try to play like this.
He's Philogene but he's not our player
He's from the villa
And he's here on a loan
But the kids just scored a goal
Something wrong with my TV, the team in Blue are passing & moving!
Philogene is not our player,
When he scores then we think he should be one
Have we scored a better goal than that in 5 years? Great football
