Crystal Palace v Aston Villa Match Thread

Bolasie and Puncheon for Gabby and Weimann and we would be pretty threatening. Trouble is we have no real pace apart from Gabby.

Westwood and Cleverley in the same time looks more and more pointless.

Cleverley looks pointless full stop in fairness.


Sitting way too deep now.

[Tuscans]

I've never been to an open training session but has anyone seen our players in a circle, one touch passing with 2 players trying to nick the ball back...I bet it's a joke.

This is like watching a plucky fourth division side playing a cup tie away somewhere like Anfield and desperately clinging on to a lead.

[Deano's Mullet]

As the Undertones once sang, its going to happen. Sit so deep and they are going to equalize

[Hampshire Villa]

This is really business as usual! sitting deeper and deeper! ................ sooner or later! thanks for the Domestos tip I'm on my second pint!

[JUAN PABLO]

They always have a man over in midfield.  It's a failure of basic shape and defensive tactics.

[PaulWinch again]

Allowing way too much pressure to be put on us. Get fucking forward Villa.

[dean saunders left boot]

I'm getting more and more bewildered by the minute just as to how Palace haven't scored yet, how can a team apply so much pressure and not score.

[pauliewalnuts]

We genuinely can't hold the ball beyond three passes.

[Hampshire Villa]

dirty swine!

Same as it ever was, same as it ever was.

Listening on radio so no idea how we are playing .

[brontebilly]

great clearance from Guzan, should have done something similar last week.

Okore made a terrible decision to push forward there, we got lucky.

Well done Brad. Dirty bastard Campbell
