Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace Pre-Match Thread

Would love to see young Jack start,but i dont think Lambert has the vision or guts to 'start with him. My guess is he will start with Cole and then when he is knackered will replace him with Richardson Another 0-0 bore draw.

That so sums up Lambert

Is Richardson back then ?

So Grealish will get 80 minutes then when Cole limps off looking knackered.

?

You reckon he will make 80 minutes?

Think he means 10.....

Even though he can only have a minimal effect, I think they'll squeak it now Pardew is in charge.

Bound to happen.

Really needs a win tomorrow and at Leicester before the fixtures turn nasty again

Not looking forward to this.new manager syndrome.

Come on Villa, bring us some New Year cheer! 1-1 most likely result though I think sadly

The Sunderland game was easily one of the most boring matches I've watched since football was invented by Sky.

I had to quit on 70 minutes. The Mrs had come back from shopping and bought Cake. Cake won. Cake was good. Football wasn't. I was so sure the match was going to end on a 0-0 I would have bet a bollock on it if I could have.

This made me laugh. I regularly put my bollocks on the line. Wouldn't be confident enough on this game though.

No jedinak tomorrow - that's great for us and I think sanchez can boss the midfield in a two

I'd like to see Jack start the next three games, but I also think he makes an effective sub as well.

...but he deserves more than a few minutes at the end. Even the 25 or so minutes he got against Sunderland was too little

[David_Nab]

Grealish or / and Bacuna need to start just for the reason they can both take a decent corner !!

Also Cleverly should be banned from all dead ball situation's

I think Leicester will be a tough game. Now they will have a bit of confidence back . I think it might be better if pool can stuff them 6 0
