Aston Villa v Crystal Palace Match Thread

It was a result of poor play from Mings - he got too tight to Zaha and got done.

Mings did nothing wrong in the 1st confrontation with zaha (the drugged up prick...have u seen his eyes). Mings was also fouled 1st in that 2nd encounter. Zaha is a cheating cnut. The ref is
f-cking useless again. What was that var penalty shout all about? F-cking shit as usual.

Well a lot of people wanted Mings dropped.  Let’s see how Konsa and Hause can do.

The ref definitely showed a yellow.

For the second offence?

[mrfuse]

There is no way Mings deserved a first yellow. He didnt get involved with Zaha if anything he tried to get away.

[Drummond]

Well fucking hell. What a half.

No idea what's coming next. However, we need to rotate players niggling at Zaha to get him to react.

[manic-road]

If we were more clinical in front of goal we would be well clear, poor finishing again and Mings stupidity will now see us hanging on for 45 minutes.

[SoccerHQ]

We have to be so much better in possession in the second half.

In a way I don't think losing a CB is that bad as won't impact on our shape much, will just lose one extra player for the counter attack. More worried if we'd had lost a CM as then someone like Eze would get freedom of the park to pass and probe.

We will still get chances on the break just like all the teams we lost to last season once they went down to 10 men got.

Mings has been dire all half too. From the off turning like an oil tanker. Absolutely no need to get involved in that foul on McGinn from Zaha. If we don't win this, he wants the biggest kick in the arse.

So irritating. Absolutely dominated in chances, should be clear and potentially giving these tedious shite a chance to win the game. Fucking livid.

[enigma]

It was a straight red

It wasn’t.

I thought they just confirmed it on MotD? Or did I mishear? was in the other room so entirely possible.

[Astnor]

I think Mings should be out of the team for a while now. I think we will be better overall with Hause on left and Konza. He has this theatrics in a lot of games, it do cost us. Must be stable men at the back, then dosen t matter if he is international and can do immense things with his atlethism IMHO. Pity, we where a joy to watch until he did his second " whatever to name it".

Yup sums it up for me.

What I will say is Mings foul was definitely a booking. But so was Zaha's foul on Grealish when he went through. If Jack goes down, its a pen.

He got booked for the Zaha flare up, BBC graphic showed it.

Where the hell is Barkley again btw, would be a good sub to bring on in this situation.

[ktvillan]

Zaha has done Mings and the ref twice there - first yellow Mings did nothing but step over McGinn to get the ball and Zaha acted like he's been walloped.

But our tendency to self destruct wouldn't matter so much if we could just fucking finish.  The chances we've missed against Burnley, Albion and today we could and should have had 15 goals.
