Grealish has won PL player of the month, for the first time apparently - can't believe he never got that with us?
Anyway, hopefully he has a more muted game and we bring our A game, score and win!!!

He's playing well, fully fit, against his old club, and is the current player of the month.  I have a horrible feeling about this...

We need to be so so much better than we have been. It’s been utterly rubbish for the vast majority of the first three games. Time to start actually playing.

I wonder what Unai means when he says Barkley is not available because of a personal issue?

He also seems to have made it clear that only Elliott is close to starting as the others are unfit or don’t yet understand how we play

Let’s hope they don’t have Malen type transitional issues, or else they may as well leave now.  It does piss me off with how long it seems to take our players to fit in when other clubs just throw them in it seems to work out. It doesn’t seem to have upset Wirtz or Gykores.

He's recovered from injury but kept away from the squad due to pink eye. Maybe?

They literally haven’t beat us in forever, we must feel to them like Man City or the other lot feel to us. Records are there to be broken though and they must think with the new ground, their decent start, the Grealish factor and our poor start, that their time has come. They might be right, I’m inclined to think draw, or maybe a last minute winner.
We move our daughter up to uni in Liverpool on Saturday lunchtime, so Im hoping listening to Villa on the way home (couldn’t get a ticket), induces a smile and cheer to blow that dust out of my eyes.

2-3 (Watkins 2, Rogers)

Martinez
Konsa
Lindelof
Mings
Digne
Kamara
Tielemans
McGinn
Watkins
Rogers
Guessand

Sancho, Elliot, Malen to make an impact from the bench.
With Emery confirming who is fit/not fit, I think it may be the same team as Palace first half, apart from Digne for Maatsen
So
Martinez
Cash
Konsa
Mings
Digne
McGinn
Tielemans
Malen
Watkins
Rogers
Guessand

Unless he throws Bogarde into midfield as an extra body and takes either Malen or Guessand out.
