I think we'll beat them 2-1 if Zaha plays. They've improved since Emery arrived but, prior to beating Everton, they got walloped in three consecutive games by Leicester, City and Arsenal, conceding 11 goals. Our defence is pretty tight, midfield improving and we just need a goal threat. Ideal XI Guaita
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold... |

Ideal XI Guaita I love that lineup but I would have to replace Eze with Ayew , I know people don’t agree but , Ayews defensive work expecially away from home is invaluable, bring Eze on later if need a goal, his defensive game needs work in my opinion , if we’re at home would go with your lineup Edited by SwordFish (02 Mar 2023 4.04pm)

I actually think we'll win. Emery's honeymoon at Villa is over. We are due a win and Villa are not a better team than Palace. Zaha should feature too.

One thing I will add is that despite going 0-1 down at home I thought we were miles better than them in reverse fixture. Not often I ever feel 'non-panicked' or even confident about us let alone when we're in match and losing. For some reason I felt as though I was just waiting for us to get the deserved goals and win. Was a bit of time ago now however not completely obsolete.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

TBF I didn't realise the extent to just how pivotal they were for us until somewhat recently. I think the concentration is usually up the other end of the pitch. The two CBs are the foundation on which our team exists currently. We used to rely almost exclusively on Wilf doing something with everyone else defending now I feel the pressure is upon them two to both keep goals out but mount our attacks too. Hopefully the newly resourced midfield will start plugging this gap. I'll give a starting XI a go actually: Vin Clyne ASL Eze Wilf That's what I would like to see if everyone available. Edit: I've just realised Caterbury Eagle has put exactly the same. Going forward, the Kent firm need to be consulted on team matters I feel. Edited by Nicholas91 (03 Mar 2023 10.25am)

Edited by Nicholas91 (03 Mar 2023 10.25am) I would have to have ayew start over eze, purely for his defensive work I said earlier in this thread the same , if we were at home I’d go with your team but I think ayew is pivotal to our defence especially away from home “Puts tin hat on”
