We're now halfway through the week before it all kicks off, how exciting! Today we take a look at Aston Villa's players, and who brings what to the table.
Who will be Aston Villa’s top goalscorer this season?
Herbert: Jordan Ayew
Jack: Jordan Ayew (if he stays, otherwise Rudy Gestede)
Alex: Unless Villa make moves, it’s Jordan Ayew. I still don’t think the delivery’s going to be quite of the quality for Rudy Gestede to thrive.
Matt Villan: Gabriel Agbonlahor
Bennett: Jordan Ayew.
Matt F: Jordan Ayew
James: Rudy Gestede has a strong shout!
Adam: Gabby Agbon....haha no. Some unnamed great signing, and if not Rudy Gestede. You don't need to be able to control the ball in the Championship, right?
Robert: Jordan Ayew. Oh god, we don't really have a goal machine do we?
Elis: Eh, Jordan Ayew, probably.
Who will supply the assists for Villa this season?
Herbert: Gary Gardner
Jack: Jordan Amavi (if he stays, otherwise Joe Bennett/Jack Grealish)
Alex: This kinda needs to be Jack Grealish, right? The club aren’t really flush with playmakers, and the answer to this shouldn’t be your left back.
Matt Villan: Gabriel Agbonlahor
Bennett: That's a fine question. Amavi, maybe Grealish, or a player that's yet to be signed.
Matt F: Jack Grealish
James: I believe Jordan Ayew has a chance if he plays 'in the hole'. Andre Green, Grealish and Westwood could also heavily contribute.
Adam: Time for Jack Grealish to pull up his literal and metaphorical socks.
Robert: Jordan Amavi. And if this comes true, the answer to top scorer may be Gestede.
Elis: Leandro Bacuna. Fight me.
Who is your Aston Villa player to watch this season?
Herbert: Aaron Tshibola
Jack: Gary Gardner
Alex: I really think Ashley Westwood could boss this division if he’s a regular in the XI, so I guess him?
Matt Villan: Gabriel Agbonlahor
Bennett: Andre Green is the obvious pick, but I'll go with Tshibola just to be contrarian.
Matt F: Aaron Tshibola
James: Jack Grealish, it's time for him to step up to the plate. He's ran rings around players this pre-season and looks to be full of confidence.
Adam: Really looking forward to having a leader in Tommy Elphick.
Robert: Pierluigi Gollini. After a disastrous season from our keepers last year, can he turn things around and make us confident again?
Elis: Jack Grealish. Have we really seen what he has the potential to do? Hopefully no, and hopefully we'll start to see it this year.
