Palace - Post match thread

Not our best, not helped by the worst of the worst ref wise.
3 points though should be all that matters.


Honourable mentions to Sterling and KDB, who were superb but won't get any plaudits because cake-man was around.
 
Wasnt the greatest performance from the lads but they showed they have the bottle to keep going.
Fuck me that ref is an absolute joke.... wouldnt be happpy if i was a player and had him in charge.
Thought KDB was awful in !st half but he definately stepped up a gear in the 2nd
Welcome back Yaya...we have missed his goals and i thought he had a bloody good game considering how long hes been out.
Weird decision to leave Stones out of the squad unless he was injured but its a good 3 points and games like that are how you win titles
 
Valuable 3 its

Lacklustre performance but not too surprising after the (fucking) internationals!!!!......god I hate them......always effects the players performance in the game after they have been away

Im guessing thats why Stones and Gudongan weren't even not he bench
 
Merlin changed the game when he came on relentless pressure for 15 minutes and Palace fell to pieces , can't wait for the Pardew after match presser to see how long it takes him to mention the money (even though he paid more for Donkey Benteke than we did for Yaya)
 
Only seemed to move up a gear after Palace equalised, otherwise we spent most of the time hoofing the ball from defence, over our midfield and straight to a Palace defender.

Poor performance overall, buy never mind Yaya got us the 3 points today.

This win will go some way to making up for the home games where we've dropped points despite dominating, e.g. Everton.
 
Well I said it would be a tough game despite the bell ends on the pre match predicting stupid scores. Overall we played well today in a really tough fixture. Sometimes you have to win ugly and we did that today. Sterling is just on fire at the moment, KDB was quality 2nd half and I thought bravo did well too.

But ...... pep got it wrong today. Not picking stones on the bench could have cost us. And I also think our full back issue that has been an issue for over a year now has got to be fixed in January. Zabaleta was poor defensively when he came on today and kolarov was equally poor first half. Although he did improve in the 2nd.

If we are to win the league, we would need to sign 2 full backs and a CB in January. Unless (and it's a long shot) kompany stays fit.

surprisingly i am but come on it a wasnt good and we need to be so much better and annoyingly we can be which is the disappointing thing. Some really poor performances today. No need to name them, they were pretty obvious. Struggling to see the difference between pellegrini and pep at moment, in the league at least.
 
Commentator on bbc gmr said before that he's heard Yaya is looking for a new agent, we can but hope
 
Was a poor performance until they scored. I thought Silva changed the game, up until his arrival we couldn't string two passes together. His introduction also gave KDB some extra space and his performance improved markedly for the final 20 minutes. It's games like this when you don't play well but get the 3 points that keep you in the title race.
