Crystal Palace (A) | Post Match Thread

Very professional performance from City today. Good to see Stones back. He needs a few more games. Crystal Palace very capable of a smash and grab. We could have scored more, but will take the 1.0. Come on City.
 
Brilliant result. Three points are all that matter. Erling's pen was ice; carbon copy of his one against West Ham on his debut.
 
I'd love to know how long the ball was in play for this evening. That twat of a keeper was taking at least over a minute every time he had a goal kick, not to mention the countless times they took ages for a throw in.

We aren’t spoilt, we just have high expectations… and it’s not even that, it’s simply that we can see what’s good and what’s not and aren’t too Liverpool-like afraid to be open about our deficiencies in a game. Can’t be doing with fanbases who are too scared to say what’s what.

You can have a game where we have 9 clear chances and play very well and a game where we have 9 clear chances and not play all that well at all.

Every game is different.

Today, we weren’t particularly good. We weren’t shit but we played too slowly too often and struggled getting the ball into dangerous positions when Aké and Stones were getting it in wide areas. Coming off at half time Rodri said, ‘it’s not good enough’ to one of his teammates. It wasn’t really but we got the win so the three points are a great three points.

If you’ve made 9 clear chances in any game you’ve done reet fucking well mate.

problem is we won't get 11 more scruffy wins. We are garbage once we get to the penalty box. Teams are just putting 10 men behind the ball and waiting for us to pass and pass and pass and then fuck up and get caught on the counter. Some teams with less ability can't wait to get to the wing near the area and cross it. We can't wait to get to the opposition wing near the box only to then pass it back and work an opening on the other wing then pass the ball all the way back to Ederson. We got away with it today with a silly penalty, apart from that we never looked like scoring.
 
I've re-watched the brief highlights from OS and both Alvarez's and Haaland's misses aren't an easy watch
