Aston Villa v Crystal Palace Match Thread

[Matt Collins]

Wouldn't we love an n'zogbia on the bench now? Getting sick of this

I can't believe this defence will keep a clean sheet so I think we definitely need at least one


Boring boring boring

Again

[Morten]

Awful to watch. There is no speed at all. Delph runs into the Palace players. Baker and Lowton defending poor, Luna bad going forward, where is Weimann ?, etc. etc.

Will he bring on Bowery ?! This must be a chance for Helenius to come on for Weimann to be behind Kozak. Gabby on the left.

''They were brilliant for me in that half'' said Lambert.

"I thought we were excellent, really really excellent at times".

How can Southampton, Swansea who were all playing League football just a few years ago be so much better on the eye and better player for player in just a few seasons.

Board or manager?

Both - no case for the previous 2 incumbents to be hired. Current one's halo slipped.

37 mins and no mention of us on beeb

Can't fault the effort

[N'Zimidy]

Get Bowery on.

[ozzjim]

I would get Weimann off for Helenius, Weimann has been totally anonymous again. Truly awful.

The really amazing thing is if we could nick this, we would be 9 points outside of the relegation places tonight. Which with the way we are playing would be a miracle. I fear it is more likely to go the other way and be 4 though.

Only the one that played the last 6 games of 2011-12

The second half will be a cracker.

[danno]

Get Bowery on.

I'd be amazed if he had a heavier first touch than some of the others out there today.

woeful stuff.

[pooligan]

No doubt Lambo will be really pleased  with that first half,a clean sheet ,the lads kept going and we were excellent

We miss NZogbia massively. People forget how much of a catalyst he was for us changing our form last season. West Brom away, West Ham and Fulham home, he was excellent. We need that player who can just find a pass, put their foot on it, beat a man in dangerous areas etc.

Said yesterday, Maloney on the cheap would be worth getting for this team.

There will be posters on the post match thread saying pretty much the same thing. Or that Lambert has a plan that is coming to fruition in 2021, we just all need to be more patient and we could still finish one place higher that last season which is progress, and we've got lots of injuries, loads more than any other club and on and on and on...

[Goldie.7]

I'm hoping our transfer targets aren't watching this.

The second half? ''We go again''.
