Today’s match between Crystal Palace and Aston Villa calls for the elimination of one player from the starting lineup in order to improve the team’s attacking capabilities.
Crystal Palace has had a successful start to the Premier League season. They have two victories, one tie, and one defeat.
During the international break, they held down seventh place with seven points, so this upcoming game will be a true test for both teams to see if they can compete in the top half or the bottom half.
It would be a significant declaration of purpose for the Eagles to defeat an Aston Villa team that advanced to the European Championship last season, and losing one player would make them a more potent attacking force.
Roy Hodgson needs to cut one player.
For Jeffrey Schlupp, the Premier League season has not gotten off to the best of starts. Since Wilfried Zaha left, the team hasn’t had many options in that position, thus the versatile player is being asked to play on the left wing.
The 30-year-old has started all four games this season but has not yet scored or assisted a goal.
It may be better for Roy Hodgson to drop Zaha in order to improve the quality of the attack if you’re going to replace him with someone who can attack more.
In their most recent game against Wolves, Crystal Palace appeared to have more attacking freedom after the manager replaced the player making £50,000 a week.
The team scored two goals, while Jean Philippe-Mateta, Schlupp’s replacement, added two assists. Eze, who was placed in Schlupp’s place, also scored while playing.
Schlupp is attacking, which is unfortunate because the Eagles need to start with the greatest attacking options otherwise they would struggle to break down a resilient Villa team.
