Match Thread | Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City (14/12/25)

When they hit the bar he was miles offside, but the bent linesman didn't flag. Instead of us getting a free kick, they were able to put us under some sustained pressure, helped by the crowd suddenly having something to cheer about.
It's totally changed the momentum, which just shows how those little bits of cheating from the officials can influence the game.

Not a good look chief

Sounds like ;-)

Come on city flip the switch.

Pressings and passing needs to go up a level.

Clyne lol

Hahah that would be cherry on top on cherry

A bizarre game so far, you could hear a pin drop and there is no intensity at all in the game.

a pin drop ? ALL I can hear is that fourking drum - it really does spoil it .!!

You have to wonder why if Casper is going to be playing so high. why Marmoush isn’t preferred to play that position.

 

[p.taker]

WAY offside raise your flag idiot

 

[mexico1970]

Change out of that shit kit at half time FFS!

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Unfortunately it seems only a matter of time of time if this continues.

 

[stan bowles]

Hmmm...they're starting to find their rhythm. We're all at sea in midfield.

Who decides which kit we wear why couldn’t we wear our blue kit ..

I was told yesterday that clubs generally have an agreement with the kit supplier to wear any specific kit x times in the season. Personally, I'd pay the fine rather than wear that monstrosity.

 

[citymad]

Take a point right now based on this first half. Looks like we’re gonna concede any minute now.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Palace plating like us in front of goal.

I think we'll sneak this.

 

[.db.]

With Reijnders so high, we are a man short in midfield when we lose it (which we keep doing).

Got to look after possession fucking miles better than we have been if he’s playing so high.

 

[heslops barnet]

Our midfield is just too weak.

Weak as piss

 

[dublin-blue]

This kit is cursed

 

[Mentis]

So as they played advantage on that obvious offside, does that now mean that the shot on target counts?

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

cutting through our back line far too easily, how many times so far?...something needs to change , that ball in-between O'Reilly and Gvardiol catching us out

 

[Alexia_Ko]

stupid idea not to play marmoush here

The same role that reijnders is playing could easily be done by marmoush

Missing width today, everyone looking to come inside but it's a packed area.
