I think so, it was Tuesday 2nd December 2014. 1-0. When Benteke scored I heard the roar of the Villa fans with my windows open in my flat 200m away and I thought 'oh no, 1-0 to Palace' as the roar was so loud! What a nice surprise two minutes later on the BBC livetext! : > Edited November 27, 2021 by robby b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much creativity in this starting 11. I like the idea of dropping Ings and Buendia though. Gerrard has high demands and expectations, you need to live up to them. I think it’s a different role than under DS against Watford. Our front three will be narrow which will help Young as he lacks that yard of pace now.

VillaChris Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Just now, Robtaylor200 said: Beat them 4:1at their place on 11 December 2012 in quarter final League cup . I won £83 That was Norwich. All I can remember is that 1-0 in 2014 when Benteke scored running from halfway line (they battered us for most of the game) and beating Wimbledon 2-0 in 1997. Even under O'Neill we only scraped a 2-2 late on in the FA cup when we were top 6 and they were mid table in championship so yeah outside of Manchester it's one away ground we never seem to turn up whatever our form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who did this under one of the toughest and highest rated managers in the world? As well as has more pedigree and footballing achievements than 90 percent of our squad? Narratives don't change facts mate. Nah that’s what they want us to think mate. The truth is Luiz and Beundia had a punch up and Carney got a few sneaky digs in while trying to break it up. All three want to leave now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 So will we force them down the wide channels and into making crosses into the box like we did Brighton? With Benteke there it probably isn't the best idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaFaninLondon Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Not sure on Young myself but he did change the game when he came on last week so understandable. Ings and Buendia deserve to be dropped after last week's showing. A bench containing Ings, Buendia, Luiz, Sanson, AEG and Chukwuemeka certainly shows we have a strong squad.

WallisFrizz Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Steven Gerrard has explained his two changes today with Leon Bailey and Ashley Young in for Emi Buendia and Danny Ings respectively. Gerrard said: Leon Bailey obviously came back late from international duty, who's still finding 100 per cent fitness if you like. He's trained ever so well and he's looked dangerous and we're going to need that at times. Danny Ings has had one or two little moments, little niggles, so it's more of a protection with Danny. If any one player has picked up all of our information really well who's applied himself top it's Ashley Young who deserves his start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
