In this game, Wei Le certainly did not have the confidence to rotate all players. For example, players like Ziro and Joe Mason, who have very good physical fitness and have been given the green light by the team doctor, still remained in the starting lineup.

However, players like Rodri, Jota, and Bowen, who the team doctor and physical trainer said might be at risk of injury, were directly placed on the bench by Wei Le. Wei Le directly gave Rodri a day off so that he could not go to the away game with the team on the match day.

This is a kind of preferential treatment. After all, Rodri is simply Wei Le's all-around warrior, and his running distance in each game is at the top of the team. In addition, there is also the reason that Wei Le is not very short of people in the midfield.

In fact, Wei Le also wanted to give Jota a holiday, but in the striker position, in addition to Ziro, there is only one 18-year-old young player who performed well in the youth team. Brett Enobaka, who has dual nationality of Nigeria and England, can still play.

Wei Le wanted to take a holiday, but Wei Le was indeed not so arrogant as to throw the young players who had not yet reached the first-team standards directly into the field.

Of course, the 16-year-old young player Gibbs-White is an exception.

His talent is visible to the naked eye. After training with the first team, according to Celars, his progress can be seen every day. In terms of overall strength, although he is two years younger, he is much stronger than Brett Enobakar.

He can even fight Coady in one-on-one training, so it is reasonable to put him in the substitute lineup for this game.

The starting lineup of the Wolves is like this. The goalkeeper is still Martin, and his position is still unshakable.

As for the central defender, the good news is that Coady's suspension period has expired and he can finally play. The bad news is that Coady caught a cold before the game. After discussing with the team doctor team, Wei Le concluded that although it was not influenza, there was no need for Coady to play.

So Coady stayed at home to watch TV. Coady sneezed too loudly, and his teammates drove him back home in disgust.

It is not a big deal to exercise when you have a mild cold, but if it is a severe cold, especially a viral cold, the team doctor said that if you rashly exercise vigorously when you are sick, it may lead to reduced resistance and excessive body load. The most serious case may be myocarditis, which is not a trivial matter.

Coady just caught a cold, but Wei Le didn't need to let anyone take risks for safety reasons.

Therefore, the central defenders are still the partnership of Bass and Ruben Dias.

The left back is Ben Godfrey, and the right back is replaced by substitute player Dominic Jorfa instead of Doherty. Both of them are actually defensive full-backs with little difference in style.

In the midfield, it is the combination of "McDonald" Kevin McDonald and Jack Pearce.

Among them, Jack Pearce is further back and Kevin McDonald is slightly forward.

In the front midfielder position, captain David Edwards finally got the chance to start again, and he still wore the captain's armband in this game.

The center forward is Ziro, and the wingers on both sides are Joe Mason and Jordan Graham.

As for Aston Villa, head coach Bruce has just taken office. The previous head coach Di Matteo was announced to be dismissed after losing to Preston, which is not outstanding in the league, in the last away game. The newly appointed Bruce has set up a completely different formation from Di Matteo.

Before this game, Bruce seemed very friendly, which is also because he has just taken office and has not yet achieved results.

For Bruce, Wei Le is not familiar with him, but Bruce was an important member of Manchester United under Ferguson in the 1990s. After Bryan Robson left Manchester United, he was appointed captain. He is quite famous in England.

Bruce is the meritorious coach who led Hull City to the Premier League last season. Wei Le also dealt with this old man when he was seeking to trade Bowen. But before the Premier League is about to come, he left Hull City, where he played for four years.

This is mainly because after the team successfully won the Premier League, the team owner was unwilling to invest in the team's recruitment, and there were already a large number of injuries before the start of the season, which made Bruce very anxious.

The inaction of the team owner also led to protests from fans. Bruce did not intend to witness the team's collapse in his hands next season, but chose to leave decently before everything happened.

Aston Villa also faced a lot of pressure in appointing Bruce. After all, Bruce played for Aston Villa's arch-rival Birmingham before retiring as a player. The experience of playing for the arch-rival is unacceptable to some fans, so Bruce is under great pressure now.

Wei Le has a good impression of Bruce. He is a friendly old man.But there is no way, the game is a game, Wei Le will not give up this victory, and I believe Bruce will also fight for victory with all his strength.

According to Wei Le's prediction, Bruce will not give up his traditional 4-4-2 style of play, and the noteworthy aspects of Aston Villa this season are their talented wingers, including Jordan Ayew, who has already made a name for himself in various leagues in France, and the young left winger Jack Grealish.

Grealish has not yet become the "shaker" he later became. Now, the 22-year-old Grealish is still a handsome boy that everyone loves.

Wei Le doesn't know what will happen later. He is very optimistic about Grealish's future development and has put him on his list of potential stocks. Through the system, he can see the amazing talent Grealish has shown.

But now, Villa is facing the problem of weak offense.

On the one hand, Villa's "strike powerlessness" is that Scottish striker McCormack handed over 45 starts, 21 goals and 9 assists when he played for Fulham last season, but this season he came to Aston Villa and "did not adapt to the local environment" and has not even opened yet.

On the other hand, Wei Le also thinks that the focus should be on the midfield.

According to the list, in the midfield combination sent by Aston Villa in this game, the Democratic Republic of Congo midfielder Zibo La has been in various Championship clubs in recent years. He has tried Milton Keynes, Nottingham Forest, and Reading, but his performance is not very outstanding.

His physical advantage is the main reason why he can occupy the main position, but he lacks the ability to pass the ball, which is not a good thing for a double midfield system team.

"They must want to win, but I believe you will not let them get their wish." Wei Le said to the players who are about to play, "Victory is still our goal!"

Edwards led the players to line up and walk onto the court. With the referee's whistle, the Aston Villa players kicked the ball out, and the game has begun!
