Plenty of Aston Villa fans have discussed Keinan Davis’ starting XI for his FIFA 20 Invitational against Jose Enrique.
With football at a standstill, players and fans have been engaging with each other through various challenges and ideas, including a tournament run by the Premier League which sees players/former players represent their clubs on video game FIFA.
Davis, who is Villa’s representative, faced former Liverpool defender Enrique on Wednesday and the young striker has gained a reaction from his starting XI.

Selecting Pepe Reina in between the sticks, the former Villa academy star opted for a back four including Tyrone Mings and a midfield five including club captain Jack Grealish and injured midfielder John McGinn. In the lone striker role, the striker selected himself, dropping both Wesley and January signing Mbwana Samatta.
Davis will see his contract expire at the end of the season at Villa Park, although reports have emerged over recent weeks about a potential automatic renewal.
Reacting to Davis’ tweet via his official Twitter account, some Villa fans (and one player) shared their opinion on his selections…
