If anyone expects us to go head-to-head with Spain in a tiki-taka battle for 90 minutes and expects us to come away with three points then there is absolutely no chance. Luis de la Fuente, in his second game as Spain boss following their 3-0 win over Norway at the weekend, made eight changes to his side for the trip to Hampden and McGinn believes the move backfired.
Emery and his Villa side will travel to Stamford Bridge on Saturday in an attempt to extend their current Premier League unbeaten run to five games as Chelsea aim to make it four. After a stuttering start to Potter's reign, the Blues earned a spot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League with an aggregate win over Borussia Dortmund and were marginally denied a third straight Premier League win by Everton's last-minute equaliser through Ellis Simms last time out.
Toney came off the bench to replace captain Harry Kane for the closing stages of the Euro 2024 qualification win over Ukraine at Wembley on Sunday night. The centre-forward, who missed out on selection for the World Cup, has 16 Premier League goals so far this season and is only the third player to represent England while at Brentford, and the first since 1939. Toney - who has been charged with 262 breaches of the Football Association's gambling laws, some of which he has since accepted, and could be facing a ban - has his sights set firmly on becoming a regular in Gareth Southgate's plans.
