Any updates on Gestede, Tish, Cissokho and Jedinak's injury guys?
Reason I am asking about cissokho is, I realy want Amavi to be given fair amount of chances to get developed after injury. He can be a great LB as we have seen in PL. He is obviously better than Cissokho.
Read Gestede and Tish are still doubtful. Still any confirmation if any of those two can make Playing XI/ subs?

and Grealish too, don't want him to miss the Match.
Just read an article in birmingham mail about the injury report that includes Albert Adomah will have to pass the fitness test. Not sure what that means.

Amavi is most people's choice for the LB slot, although I think that Cissokho has played quite well this season . Certainly much improved on last season.
Tshibola will be missed if he doesn't make it as will Jedinak.
RDM says we need 2 players for each position and with games coming thick and fast he's dead right.

I don't buy the Birmingham Mail but I do see the odd article related to Villa. I have noticed a lot of complaints on here saying that there is an anti Villa bias. The article I read today eas with Bristol's operating officer talking about how they managed to extract the maximum amount of cash from Villa for Kodija.
Not only is it a dull piece of writing which states the obvious but the undertone seems to be we have paid too much; he's not worth it etc.
This is before the guy has kicked a ball for us.
The article might have been of interest to Bristol fans hurting from the sale of their best player, but to the people of Birmingham?
My question is why do the Mail want to undermine the club supported by the majority of their readers.
Or, am I being over sensitive?

Possibly a bit sensitive . I've bought the Birmingham Mail for many years and have only ever noticed a bias towards Villa. The other West Midlands clubs too ; Albion, Wolves Walsall and the other one.
I've always thought that the bias against us comes from the national press i.e London and Manchester.

It must be the heat then mate. Like I say, I never buy it.
Still a shockingly poor article all the same.

Gregg Evans articles are normally accurate and honest but I do think the news paper as a whole seem to try to undermine the club.

Oh blimey, I feel like that character on the Fast Shoe who doesn't know who to agree with.
