Aston Villa boss to decide on right-back Bacuna

Aston Villa's Tim Sherwood admits he is unsure who he will start at right-back this weekend.

?Leandro Bacuna has impressed in the position recently while Alan Hutton is a regular right-sided full-back giving Sherwood a slight headache ahead of Saturday's meeting with Swansea City at Villa Park.

?"It is a decision to make," he told the club's official website.

?"Leandro has played the last couple of games and done well.

?"Bacuna was outstanding at Sunderland. He has almost been taught the right-back position in 10 days. Bacuna is a right midfield player and he's almost been taught the position microwave-style.

?"It's a tough decision to make but it's a decision I want to be making because I haven't had to make one since I have been here.

?"We are still struggling defensively but the players who have come in - even out of position - are doing a good job for this football club."?
