Bailey. FFS.

[paul_e]

Good to see Broggio get a reward for his form.

[Brazilian Villain]

Palace team. https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/first-team/oliver-glasner-picks-xi-crystal-palace-aston-villa-team-news/

[Villan82]

Squad getting tested early this season. We've been up against it

[Brazilian Villain]

The defence is a concern but on the plus side Emi is looking particularly tanned and handsome.

[Beard82]

Hmm - realistically means at least 2 of Tielemanns, Barkley and McGinn have to 90 mins today.  Plus then do the same on Wednesday. 

[PaulWinch again]

Bogarde, yikes.

Just bloody win Villa, we really need to improve.

[Demitri_C]

Broggio wow!

Glad to see maatsen get a start. He showing real faith in bogarde today

[Mister E]

Effectively a back 3 with Bailey and Maatsen as de facto wingbacks.

[eamonn]

Bailey. FFS.

Hardly a surprise and the only alt is the even less impressive Philogene.

[Mister E]

Our middle 3 certainly rate more highly than theirs so it'll be a case of being able to convert our chances and deny them theirs.

[Allan C]

Good team IMO I like the look of it

[brontebilly]

Not sure about Bogarde at all. We look a bit lightweight across the pitch in all honesty.
