I'm surprised we didn't give Gauci the Palace game instead of Olsen.  Tbf we were so bad that he may have dodged a bullet not playing.  

I saw De Gea linked with Celtic, I wonder if he would consider being back up here.

No chance at his age he will want to play every game if he was happy to be a back up he would have let someone pay him since he left Utd to fill that role.

Don't know if anyone has mentioned jt, but matip is leaving Liverpool on a free. He's a quality CB but very injury prone. He's also excellent in the air and in possession. He is 33 though. But if we gave him a 2 year deal maybe he'd be fine. 

Maybe he wouldn’t, 33 and injury prone not great on a cv I think.

I hate this window already. Had a feeling we might not net spend this summer, and lose a couple of favourites. Swapping Dougie for McKennie with a measly 15-20 million on top is exactly the kind of horror I was dreading.

The window doesn’t open until June 14th. Dougie hasn’t gone yet it might not even happen. Enjoy the next few weeks and worry when things have actually happened not before they MIGHT happen.

Why does Ollie bother with England ? It’s like Southgate puts him in to prove he doesn’t fit the system he is never going to change. Surely a manager recognises the differences between his strikers and has systems that play to their strengths when they are selected . Ollie is constantly set up to fail. It’s a f*****g joke.

Ross don’t do it. One below par performance ( ie one misplaced pass ) and your past will come back to haunt you on here people will not forget the past.

F**** off mate. Where's the pride. 

Everton and Forest have nothing to play for and still battling till the end

Pashun that’s what’s missing !! Support them then

These players have played fifty plus games, qualified for the Champions league and have been pissed since Tuesday, give them a break people

The concerning thing is the momentum we’re carrying through to the start of next season. This match on its own doesn’t bother me, it’s job done for top 4 but finishing the season without a win in 6 isn’t great really.

This match will be forgotten before they reach the M25 it will have no impact on next years momentum.

I'm actually gonna switch to the City game.

No interest in watching this when they have the beach mentality, I don't see the point.

Enjoy

The only teams better than Villa defensively this season are the 3 teams above us and Everton.

Stop posting sensible comments it doesn’t meet the needs of some of out posters.

“ Looking forward to this, no pressure just sit back and enjoy, no need to get annoyed it doesn’t matter “

Reality, 

“wtf we are shite, f*****g bottlers, Chambers is a disgrace, if only EMI was playing, refs a biased w*****, VAR hate us etc etc etc

Outrageous libel. Chris Sutton on BBC website: "They have probably been on the lash to celebrate since Tottenham lost against Manchester City on Tuesday, so I am going with a Palace win."

I think Sutton is a d***k but have to agree with him here why should they be any different to the fans ? 
 

No sensible replies needed.

All the pubs around Norwood junction are home fans only with security on the doors.

Always thought he was going to be a better wing back than traditional RB so I think some of his lack of game time may be due to us playing 4 at the back. We might go with a 3 again against Liverpool so I'd give him a run out at wing back personally to see whether he's worth keeping

I suspect the manager and his staff have already decided if he is worth keeping or not.

We beat them in 1979 too. 

And if you were around no doubt you predicted a defeat.

Yeah cos let's just ignore the insane injury list we have and the fact we're fighting for a 4th place in the Premier League. 

Agree

Embarrassing over the 2 legs, all the other games have been close and we get smashed by a bang average team. Yes the players are tired but you have to raise your game for these big games. Never looked like getting back into it tonight.

Sorry you are embarrassed. As you say “you have to raise your game for these big games “ and that’s exactly what that” bang average” team did. Again sorry if it chokes but they deserved to win because over the two legs they played better than we did . Fact.

Olsen would have saved that.

It's a tough ask let's be real. Emery is great, but 3 goals in 45min away from home in a high stakes match like this with a ref that seems a little dodgy?

How has the ref been dodgy?

I wish I had the confident some of you guys have, and I admire all of you that do have confidence. Past two games we’ve looked lacklustre, tired and completely out of steam. Dont see how we are winning this. 

Wont be pissed if we don’t then.

We might need to beat this Palace side to guarantee CL. Season over call it a day was good fun while it lasted 

Except for many on here it clearly wasn’t good fun (you only have to look at their often embarrassing comments before during and after games) unless we are winning regularly the players are shit, bottlers, lazy, not good enough the list goes on. The fact we are still 4th in the league and in a semi final of a European competition and have already qualified for another year in Europe next season ( admittedly not CL yet) appears to be unacceptable for some.   
Not sure what they are going to do next season when we don’t do the league and Champions league double.

I can’t wait for this season to be finished. Need a break from Villa 

This is total bollox. We are fourth in the premier league and in a European semi final. Why not support Man City ?

Shit Olsens playing well who can we go after now ? Step forward Mr Diaby.
