Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa FA Cup SF Match Thread

[Le Lapin]

Cash and Rogers have been bad today .

[SoccerHQ]

Palace defending for their lives now, they've earnt it with how they've played.

Bailey actually been alright but ultimately this is last ditch from us now, actually putting a wide player on who can take it to the byline.

[HolteLower]

We are not as good as we thought we were.

[Toronto Villa]

We are not as good as we thought we were.

Today we’re not even that good.

[Holy Trinity]

I'm sick of this heart break!

When will it ever end. 40 plus years and it's always been the same. Barring 2 anomalies in 94 and 96

Bailey has been our best player, which says more about the rest of the team than it does about him.

[Cliftonville Villlain]

Bailey has the beating of that guy every time.

Malen should have been on ages ago. 12 minutes of this shit show left.

[Hampshire Villa]

Why all this time to wait to bring Malen on??

[Nelly]

I too would love to see Malen. He always looks interested.

[Somniloquism]

I think most knew we needed someone fast and good in the air at the back, and better wing play with Maatsen. But I think Rashford would have had a field day on the left if not injured.

[Chris_Jephcott]

We literally started the season with a trumpet and are ending with a wet fart.

I’m fed up with us not showing up.

The trouble is that we’re utterly indifferent for many games and we’ve been measured. We always are against these guys.

[Beard82]

We are also witnessing very likely the end of Asensio, Rashford and a sale of another top talent as we try to stay he right side of PSR. CL seems a long way off and with our finances we will need to accept a step backwards to stay compliant.

Whilst I think this is all correct - I don’t think that is the end of the world.  Marco hasn’t looked at enough.  Are recruitment is pretty good I think it’s more likely to be a newcastle type step back to go again

[Mellin]

If I were Malen I'd spent this 12 mins stood in the centre circle writing my transfer request.

Bailey and Barkley doing well. Malen should have been on ages ago.
