I think we should come out dressed as a bunch of re-enactors from the battle of Poitiers. Only the secret will be we're not really equipped with foam swords and long bows but the genuine thing and then we can mallet Palace's players and only lose one nil. #fistpump

Aston Villa, 4-3-3 : Reina; Konsa, Hause, Mings, Taylor; McGinn, Douglas Luiz, Hourihane; Trezeguet, Samatta, Grealish.

Subs : Nyland, Elmohamady, Targett, Guilbert, Lansbury, Vassilev, Davis, Jota, Nakamba.

Sky have got El Ghazi on the bench instead of Vassilev

I think that's about a strong a team as we can sensibly expect to field. The fact that we've got two points from the last 30 and now need to win at least three from four is a ridiculous position to be in.

Does anyone genuinely think we can pull this off?

Let’s all pay a moment’s respect for the suffering poor Dougie Luiz is undoubtedly going to be subjected to over the next 90 minutes.
Playing an out of form (and shape) John McGinn, alongside Conor as 2 of a midfield 3 against their pit bull of a midfield is asking for trouble. 🙄

It is remarkable that Lansbury, who has been with us for 2.5 years, made less than 50 appearances and was generally not good enough even in the Championship, is still in the match squad as we're in PL relegation dogfight.

Not making excuses but why is it that if 2 players come together and the palace players falls over they get a free kick but if the villa player does it's waved on? There's been 3-4 either way so far and we've had nothing.

Better side.  More positive, more chances, bit of luck.  All good so far.

Full backs pushing up higher, runners hitting the box. Actually scoring while we're on top is a revelation.

El-Mohammedy has made a big difference at right full back. Has been a threat from crosses that Konsa wouldn't have been. Keep him there for the next 3 games. Has always looked to get forward. Excellent.

Have to be honest. Just before Trez scored I was of the opinion they should take him off. Have to say though he took the goal really bloody well. Might inspire some confidence all round.

Would get Freddie and Nakamba on now, close out the game a bit. Starting to flag now and Palace are starting to break past us like that PVA chance.

Reina having a good game today.

Which in itself is an exceptional talent, just not what we need today.

I swear Scott Dann played for SHA about 20 years ago.

Hourihane and Samatta off, Nakamba and Davis on. Would love Davis to bag one on the break, would make it a perfect game.
Title: Re: Aston Villatwo vs Crystal Palace Match Thread
Post by: paul_e on July 12, 2020, 04:01:59 PM
Notsure why it's Hourihane instead of McGinn going off, McGinn looks out on his feet.

Thought we might get a rare Lansbury sighting for McGinn but we can't make any more subs, now.

In defence of Davis trez has the better chance and really should have his hattrick.

Plus Villa leading, meaning mandatory 2 mins added.

Yeah, five mins seems about right. Five substitution breaks, two VARs, goal, two bookings, drinks break. Not too much else.

Reina been great today apart from the "goal" (which he was fouled anyway). Back to his Spurs match level before the form dip.

So much convincing collecting stuff than Nyland.
