From what I heard at the start of the match Palace have the best away form as far as defense of any team in the league.. A nightmare for us right now.

sexbelowsound Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Decent half without creating many chances. Ayew is the heartbeat and him and Kozak seem to work reasonably well together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StanBalaban Posted January 12, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2016 I'll probably get pelters, but I think Okore and Lescott actually make a reasonable pairing every time they place together. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever transpires in this game or this season we have to give him time to fix this mess because O'Neill, McLeish, Lambert and Sherwood have left him with a shit hand and it will take time. Completely agree. We've got to be patient and let him figure this out. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 That is exactly the type of improvement/ performance we need to see Garde getting from the squad. No complaints. And I've said it before and will keep saying it, the players are NOT poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Can't fault their effort first half, but just lacking that killer touch, and no one seems to want to take a chance and get in the box. By far the better side, yet Palace could easily be two up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he shows enough he will deservedly get time. But he has to show it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingsombrero Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Happy with that and we've done it without going 200million miles an hour so we *should* be able to come out and do something second half. Just need a bit of luck (well a bit more, we already got a bit 40secs in after all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Very positive. Gana been the best man on the pitch. Cissokho and Lescott been good as well. Ayew is always busy, Kozak started lively but has faded. Westwood been dire and Veretout, unusually as well. Lets win this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermon Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 It's almost like we don't have a number 10, someone should be picking up the scraps behind Kozak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova26 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 It was obvious we was going to out do them in the desire stakes we have no choice but too... ...thing is we never look liked scoring need to overload the box a bit more...have we ever scored from a corner? Why is Vertout never in the box, or Gill, or Westwood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorset77Villa Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Sensational 1st half every one of the players actually looks like they care and want to give 100% to the cause. Play like this for the rest of the season and we may even win a game or 2 UTV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 If we do anything in this transfer window it should be to sign a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) Kozak actually looks like he's got quicker since he broke his leg Edited January 12, 2016 by Jimzk5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claretman Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Neat and tidy half. When Ayew drifts wide there are no midfielders getting into the box leaving Kozak isolated. Has anyone said "They are there for the taking" yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAuthority Posted January 12, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 12, 2016 After some of the horrendously inept displays we've had this season that was the most professional and cohesive we've looked, albeit for 45 minutes. 57% possession & 8 attempts. I can see what Remi is trying to do but unfortunately salvaging this team/squad will take more time than we have to save ourselves this season.

commander Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Bring Lydon on for Westwood - he's a complete liability. Him aside - pretty positive stuff! Come on you Villa boys! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
