He is a moody petulant twit but he is incredible effective. I can see them trying to isolate Targett against him Like Sarr atWatford. Targett is going to have to bring the noize. That said it’s easy to wind Zaha up, so I expect some dark arts to be deployed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 We always seem to struggle away at Palace, much like Watford. Fingers cross we find a way to buck the trend but I’d be quite content with a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted November 26, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2021 Just hope we get a ref that either knows the rules or doesn't put Palace in his accumulator (cough...Kevin friend...cough)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted November 26, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 26, 2021 Interesting press conference this morning. I must admit I'm not quite sure what he'll do with the team now. I think the keeper and back four will be the same, he'll play Ings up top and Watkins left and McGinn will be in midfield - I think those are the definites. There's a hint it might be Bailey instead of Buendia and that Luiz/Sanson might come in for Nakamba or Ramsey - given the praise for Watkins this morning, I guess there's a chance he could be up top with Ings on the bench, but I can't see that. I think he'll go: ------------------------------Martinez---------------------------- Cash------------Konsa------------Mings---------Targett ----------------------------------Luiz-------------------------------- -------------------Ramsey----------McGinn------------------ Bailey---------------------------------------------------Watkins ----------------------------------Ings-------------------------------- but I wouldn't be surprised to see Buendia, Nakamba, Sanson or even Young start the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted November 26, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 26, 2021 At least we can pretty much guarantee how Palace will line up. 433. The game will be won in midfield. If Ramsey does start, he'll need to be very involved. Palace's 3 will be from Milivojevic, Kouyate, McArthur & Gallagher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 our midfielders, need to watch Conor Gallagher and find out what intensity and movement really is...instead of touching on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I reckon Gallacher - Kouyate - Milivojevic is most likely. Very similar formations - the game might be about who gets onto the front foot.

PussEKatt Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 IMHO the team played with a plan and a purpose last week that I havent seen in a long time.SG has had another week with the squad so I expect them to have improved on last weeks performance,im going for 1-2 to us.

I saw Villa beat Leicester 2-1on TV there on the 7th of December 2014 thanks to the winner from the Scottish Cafu. And I think that was the only Villa game I saw there so it definitley goes down as one of my lucky Villa pubs. UTV!!!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Ramsey looked the much better player for u21’s. Gallagher is a very good player. Our Ramsey could be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
