Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace match thread

[Brazilian Villain]

Drove past a Palace Road on the way here, then saw a discarded cuddly lion toy which looked like it had been run over several times in the car park. Not great omens. Hopefully the rainbow was lucky.

I saw a rainbow on my walk to the station as well. I'm hoping that will be lucky too!   

Hopefully not a sign that Bizot will bungle an easy save.

I don't care about the bench lets smash these with whats on the pitch.

The bench shows how short we are. It’s alarming how light it is.

[VancouverLion]

C’mon you Villa boys!! 3-0 FTF!!!!

For all we talk about the financial constraits, after 6 transfer windows (well a couple of days left) and 400m spent on signings to have that as a bench in the PL is pretty poor.

Kamara, Onana and Barkley are injured.. and we sold two injury prone players in JJ and Leon, who consequently are already injured.

[Steve67]

Barkley, Onana, Kamara to come back.  Anyone else, other than another central midfielder, George Hemmings?

I like the starting 11, lots of pace and width but this is very much a plan A thing because, with this bench, there cannot be a plan B.

Any build up for our game Sky you wankers?

[Flamingo Lane]

Are they actually going to show our game?

[Tuscans]

You'll get your 6 minutes.

[PeterWithesShin]

And, even with those 3 fit we'd still be sticking kids on the bench. There's 5, plus Bogarde who's hardly a senior player.

[Somniloquism]

Although aren't we £10mil positive over those 6 windows? We have so many people injured or out on loan at the moment doesn't help when either.

[olaftab]

Half full Villa Park…Sunday evening traffic must be bad.

[PeterWithesShin]

We still spent 400m on players. It's like we've only sold players.
