Aston Villa v Palace Post-Match Thread

[LeonW]

A real real let down.

[PeterWithesShin]

The defence were crap, but that doesn't mean we create 0 clear chances.

[Martyn Smith]

The signal moment there was for the third goal. Youri stood still with the ball, the Palace player said thanks, I'll have that and it was then only going to finish one way

[Jane]

Just fuck off Villa. So angry.

[PaulTheVillan]

Fucking pussies.

In a long list of huge Wembley disappointments since 1996 I'd say that is right up there. Just glad it wasn't the actual final.

Considering how we've played in the build up and what is left I am completely empty and this season is over for me as I don't really care about finishing 5th or 6th over winning the FA Cup.

Today is why we've gone 30 years without winning anything. On the big occasions we shrink, don't want to take risks and want to wait for opposition to mess up. You very rarely win big trophies with that mentality.

Didn't like the line up, didn't like the subs, easily Emery's worst game for us as a manager.

Maybe it's a good thing the 2019/20 members of the squad start to break up now. Served us very well but PSG feels the last hurrah.

Next season we need to be seeing more of likes of Maatsen, Malen etc.

Conserving energy in play has its downsides and today was the worst of it. Completely crushed by watching us play like that in yet again big game at Wembley.

68 years and counting.

[Bishop Brennan]

71% possession and yet we got properly thumped.

Umm welll…..

Players to replace from this squad:

Cash, Torres, Asensio, Barkley and maybe even Konsa. Also, today Tielemans and Rogers were fucking annoyingly wank! Torres gave them first goal, Rogers let them in for penalty miss, Tielemans gave them second goal, Konsa the third.

Why do we play big games like we want to go in 0-0 at half time?
First shot is a goal—again!
Another goal after 90 mins!!
Never turned up —-again!!
Could have lost this 6-0 !!
Just not good enough by everyone

[enigma]

Utter shit from start to finish. Fair play to Palace though. They stepped up and played superbly when it mattered in a way that we just couldn't. They really are our Kryptonite though. Emery just can't get a handle on them.

Sarr must wish he could play us every week.

Another in the long list of great Villa Cup no-shows. No one comes out of that with any credit. Of all the clubs to become our bogey team:  Crystal-fucking-Palace.

There are all the indications of the PSG game being the club's highwater mark for the foreseeable future.

Special shout out to the group of coked up pricks in block 112 who spent the entire game paying no attention to what was happening on the pitch, and chose instead to shout in people’s faces and calling them shit fans for not signing loudly enough.
