Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa match thread

I'd say there are a few of us concerned  about his concentration  levels.

Hadn’t realised he was at Palace!

I hate playing this shower at this shithole. It always seemed to be thumping with rain or so foggy that you couldn’t see the other end.

This is a game where I would love us to avenge the VAR non-goal last season

Scott Carson, Jack Butland. They are all coming out of mothballs this week. There were rumours Mervyn Day was going to be one of the subs for Villa today.

Ramsey has got to do better there.

What a chance that was, has to hit the target.

[Edvard Remberg]

Ramsey big miss

[Mister E]

What a shame Jacob didn't do better; it'd be great for him to score.

[The Edge]

Well... This could be interesting, especially with the amount of Villa fans who are desperate to see Mings dropped/shipped out. Not the worst game for Hause to be at the back as I'd back him in an aerial duel against Benteke.

Are there are a huge amount of fans who want Mings dropped or sold?

I wasn't aware there were any let alone "a huge amount".

Good to see you posting Damo70. Someone put "do it for Damo70" on the post match thread. We were worried about you.

[JUAN PABLO]

good start here

[AlexAlexCropley]

Surely that was a booking
