Palace playing like they're not worried about points or goals. I think that says more about Villa than it does about Palace.

That's the way Emery wants us to defend, by the look of it, so we can expect more of that. The back four held a decent line but you need pressure on the ball from the midfield which we didn't have.

He's a punchable twat but Zaha is a very good player.

He won’t want us to defend badly.

I meant he wants us to play the opposition off side. A lot.

If he was a couple of years younger I'd want us to sign him.

Have to say, I didn't even think it was close to being onside, clearly off.

We are playing some decent stuff going forward especially down the left. But every time we have the ball in our own half I shit myself that we are going to gift them a goal

Zaha is a great player, and a massive shithouse. The fact he went to the Villa fans to celebrate is an example, that it was ruled out makes it funny.
