Crystal Palace (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

That is a good point considering recent performances, but i still don't see where any improvement is coming from.

You need to take out Walker, Gundogan and Bernardo at a minimum to have a team i would be confident in winning the upcoming fixtures and that's not going to happen because of who is currently available.
 
Got away with that....so poor al around.

Gundo is done....he is actually a hinderance and keeps losing possession

Walker has never been able to defend crosses...he now cant defend full stop.

KDB isnt able to run....he can barely get past a jog....if he has time and space he as the magic in his boots but he aint going to get the time and space he needs...

Our midfield set up and individual players are leaving the likes of Dias (who is one of only a couple who had a good game) totally exposed.

Lewis is getting away with it (from the fans point of view) as he is from the academy but he simply isnt good enough - again like Gundo he is constantly giving up possession. His goal does nothing to change the overall picture.

The biggest issue is Gundo and Lewis and right back.....all need replacing asap.

Even Bernardo payed poor today - his giveaway that led to the second goal from the corner...


Play like that the rags will beat us convincingly with the amount of pace they have in midfield and upfront.....forget about the CL we need to focus on making sure we qualify for it next year
If you think Lewis is "getting away with it" you haven't read a single post about him on here, ever.
 
This team is a shadow of its former self. Walker shouldn’t be let anywhere near the pitch. At this stage I’d rather see Pep giving the kids a go. Going to be lucky to make top 4 at this stage.

Let’s see how we fare against Juve next. I’m not holding out much hope.
I really couldn’t give a fuck about that game. It’s all about the game against the scum.
 
Rob Jones is a ****.

The Palace player should have been booked and a penalty check at least should have been called for. VAR not fit for purpose.

Anyway I think the lads did alright all things considered. The laughably small squad is on Pep.
 
We just have to accept we will be no where near the title or CL this season, and are in a real fight for a top 4 place finish. Our team is filled with players not good enough at the highest level and those past their best, our squad is incredibly weak and i see no point in Pep persisting in the same players who wont be here next season ie Walker.
Our coaching is a laugh, cannot take a corner, cannot defend a corner and our finishing is sub par at best with the squad littered with non scoring players.
We all knew what was coming today when we saw the starting 11 with the same tried and failed midfield.
A huge squad overall needs to start in January as we need at least 4 new 1st team players, let alone strengthening the squad.
Injuries aside it should have never got to this stage. 4-6 required.
 
A few weeks ago we would have lost that, so I guess it's progress of sorts. Still frustrating, but it's not an easy place to go at the best of times. With so many players unavailable it was always going to be difficult today. Need to start seeing results in the context of a top four battle, rather than the title, as that's long gone.
Yep, need to look to be averaging 2 points a game for top 4, so in that context an away point ain’t too bad.
