Here are Edmund Brack’s player ratings from Villa Park after a 27th-minute own goal from Joachim Andersen gave Aston Villa all three points against Palace.

Here is every word from Patrick Vieira’s post-Aston Villa press conference at Villa Park.

The 23-year-old has now been issued with 10 yellow cards in his debut Premier League campaign.

Palace recorded just five touches inside Villa’s penalty area and failed to register a shot on target.

The Palace boss was speaking at the Financial Times’ Business of Football summit in London this week.

Ferguson played 45 minutes for Paddy McCarthy’s U21 side against Manchester United and followed that up with a 63-minute appearance against Spurs this week.

The 25-year-old, who joined the Eagles from Celtic in August 2021, scored three goals and recorded two assists before the Qatar 2022 World Cup break.

The Ivorian is currently in the final months of the five-year extension he signed in 2018 and will be a free agent come the summer.

The Ivorian has missed the last four outings for the Eagles after he picked up a hamstring injury in the goalless draw with Newcastle United. 

Jean-Philippe Mateta called for Crystal Palace fans to shout ‘boom’ every time he scored a goal and darted off to the nearest corner flag in his sight towards the end of last season.
