On a side note, amazed thread still open.

Of course I do. Doku was attacking all afternoon, and if he hadn’t been double/treble marked he would have gone past his man a lot more often (not that he didn’t).

Lol - he's gash

I've just watched a clip on the BBC re the Henderson handball! Rooney is beside himself that he wasn't sent off, and Lineker was glad he wasn't 'cos it 'would have spoilt the game'! What a fuckin' clown that fellah is! What is more important - applying the LotG or setting them aside so that the game isn't spoiled. The most moronic comment you could make! Thank the fuck he's going and saving the license fee payer a million into the bargain. Mind, those bastards will probably share out Lineker's million as bonuses.

Time for a new voice and fresh ideas, we are so stale at the moment, but with management and players and fans can see this, and 99% of the time club fans are right.

Theres nobody out there. Plus players join us because if Pep. I agree but he has to fix this mess

Even Wrighty was, absolutely livid from a Strikers point of view.

Doku is nowhere near the standard required. He's gone backwards.

I think the games this season have shown that the oppo defenders think he is, which is why they put two or three on him. There hasn't been a single full back who has had Jezzer in his pocket, not one. He frightens the shit out of 'em.

I enjoy gash.

Fill that North Stand with tourists now.

The lad was one of the only positives today.

I'm sorry but I'm the on way back from Wembley right now and just watched him produce a fat 0 in 100 mins against a mid table side. It's not good enough and if we were talking about Sterling, Sane, Mahrez it wouldn't have been the case. I don't care if you perceive defenders to be "frightened", because he may as well have been Terry Cooke today for all the difference he made.

You're watching a different team to me.

Who was better than Doku? Three Palace fans I have spoken to all said Doku was our best player also…

Your in denial.

No need to apologise. I just think he is exciting to watch, and he was the only player who VK suggested to us, so I'll go along with that.

Only player who tried

27 games this season 6 assists and 3 goals.

Gvardiol has 5 goals

O’Reilly has 2 goals.

it was a low bar so saying he was our only positive isn’t saying much.

He’s not good enough.
He’s quick but that’s about it.
He rarely has an end product.
3 goals in 27 for a winger is not good enough.
Neither is 6 assists.

That’s what Chelsea said about Salah at the same age.

Forget stats for a moment. He should be in our plans even if it’s for a backup winger pushing to prove he should be starting.

We have players who can’t run, there’s bigger prioritys.

Fuck off and support another club.

Fuck off and support another club.

Hahaha

Congrats to Palace fan Captain Sensible

Roll on next season

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Onl

We deserved to lose because we did? Our expected goals was 2.3.

Only a moron follows that shit.

Henderson pulled off a great otherwise top corner
