February 26, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Former Aston Villa player Steve Froggatt has called for the team to play with two strikers up front, as fans debate the tactical merits of the move amid injuries to key midfielders.

Former Aston Villa player Steve Froggatt has advocated for a change in formation, suggesting the team should deploy two strikers up front. This suggestion comes as fans debate whether tactical changes are needed while key midfielders Kamara, McGinn, and Tielemans are injured.

Many supporters believe a 4-4-2 formation with Tammy Abraham and Ollie Watkins could work temporarily. Fans note Watkins has struggled with just one goal every 4.6 games this season, while Abraham is seen as more clinical. However, some prefer to let manager Unai Emery decide the best approach.
