Crystal Palace v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Deano's Mullet]

Ugh they showed the last game vs City from two years ago. Still hurts.

[Stu]

Day of rest.

It’s nice to relax and not have anything riding on a game! It’s been a pretty breathless season, so proud of the team. Hoping we can see that documentary they’ve been filming too.

Finished 14th instead of 13th. Not our problem.

[Ducksworthy]

I’m obviously grateful to be able to watch it but I do find the lack of build up on the Arabic channels really boring. For some reason I’ve been watching a montage of De Bruyne and Lukaku for ten minutes.

Yes, that would be great.

My only surprise is Hause isn't playing .

Diaby and Watkins masterclass would be a nice end to the season and if I’m being a little bit spoilt, a Rolls Royce performance from Dougie.

[Edvard Remberg]

What i want the most today is Ollie getting number 20

[SoccerHQ]

My only surprise is Hause isn't playing .

He's not been registered in our squad all season.

As I said a few hours ago Tim might aswell go back to Bodymoor tonight and clear out his locker given Chambers is starting ahead of him in midfield for a dead rubber.

[Smirker]

For the last time this season...

FTF!

Yeah, it's pretty clear that Unai sees him as not being part of the future.

[AV84]

Way less likely than Ollie hitting 20, but would be cool if Lenglet could somehow get on the score sheet. I think he's the only player with regular playing time not to have scored this season. (He did have one ruled out, I think)

I posted that in the prematch thread. Stick a tenner on him. It's happening!

Prediction: Towards, or at, the end of this match, one of our players will make some sort of gesture or bodily movement that someone will jump on as 'proof' they're 'saying good bye to the fans'.
