Crystal Palace (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

If we'd started Grealish and Doku or even brought them on at HT we'd have won quite comfortably (still don't get Pep's aversion to subs before it becomes too late). Both must start against the Rags so I assume they'll be rested again midweek.

We're on Sky sports game of the day if anyone's arsed, just started.

I'd rather watch paint grow.

 

[WestGorton]

I can translate that, as the laws prescribe, as careless and bordering on reckless, but for some players it's ignored, for others it's a red. I've seen enough football over the decades to have witnessed some shitty hopeless refereeing, and today's card for Rico was another example.

Agreed. The ref got it so wrong.

It’s not a lifetime pass but in this context I’m happy with a point

Pep is unsackable in my book
You don't win more top-shelf silverware than the whole history of Manchester City history and get sacked,
Even if we finish 4th bottom you think City sack Pep, We have to learn to be a normal club again, then the pressure will be off and everybody can relax and see if Pep can build another team that can challenge for the titles,

They will play midweek I believe, because it is important. If we don't beat Juventus progress in the European Cup is in the balance.

It’s been said for weeks but in 50 50s we rarely come out with the ball….Silva, Lewis, Gvardiol, Gundogan, Nunes, Foden ( when he plays) Savinho….very rarely win their duels and unfortunately we are now lacking in the technical skills to make up for this.

My view on this game is that we looked better than last Wednesday. Do we look our old selves? No. But we are gradually climbing up the ladder.

We deserved more out if this game than Palace did. The red card on Lewis was harsh and the decision taken by a ref who is unable to feel the motion of the incident. Lewis was an easy victim.

Never more like singing the blues
City draw United lose
An OK day becomes a great one.

More like a pretty disappointing day becomes an ok one

didnt watch the game had plans i couldn't get out of.

Seen highlights.

Bar the injuries we got on weds, he should of kept most of the same starting 11.

the lineup didn't fill me with joy.

`Always rated Walker, but its time he's not starting games. barely moved for their 2nd goal
