IMO, Akanji is only good or even excellent when the strong strong defensive players are around him. In the two years he has peak Dias, Ale, Walker, Rodri around him. And Gvadol was a good defender too. He only had to show his advantages in header speed etc but not the real game mindset. Rico Lewis was the golden boy last season and nailed his position in starting 11 when the team was with the proper back-bone players and you can say he won silverware’s as evidence too. Now he is shite. If Bobb was fit, he will be shite too because they were never really given individual exams before.

Individual exams that’s it !

I’m getting fucked off at the players who are constantly injured. Stones, Akanji, Ake it’s becoming a joke at this point. We can’t build any momentum cause we’re changing the team every fucking match. Take the draw and move on. Big week ahead

Add jack & Doku to your injured players list too. According to pep they both couldn't play 90 mins due to niggles

Disappointing to concede yet another early goal, we were half asleep and it was awful marking .... and then by allowing Palace a free header for their second, again really poor marking.... we seem to just create problems for ourselves all the time.

But we did score twice ourselves to avoid defeat, so we at least came away with a point from a game in which we were probably the better side ... judging by all the possession we had.

We are dropping far too many points though, and it must be rectified to stand any chance of us getting a top four finish.

Gundogun is the worst player I've seen in the pep era. Pep's first signing and Pep's worst signing. Can't wait for him to be shipped to China.

Did you say that last Wednesday against forest ?

You sir have a fucking short memory.
Either that or you’re on the wind.
Probably the most stupid comment of the day.
Congratulations

Hello rag. Hello dipper.

 

[HarrytheBlue]

We are simply not good enough this year. Injuries a factor but it’s bigger than that we don’t have the players and our squad is too old and too thin.

It's a combination of injuries to some colossal players, the page beginning to turn on stellar careers of some and fatigue. Yes, there's a form issue, but you can link that to fatigue. We've made history with barely a break between seasons - we go deeper into competitions than other sides and our players tend to go deep into international tournaments. Our lads are human - cut them some slack.

 

[It'sBlue93:20]

We’d have to go on a massive winning run like we did from this stage last season to have any chance. Doesn’t look likely but things can just click but feels like we just don’t have the squad this year unless we rectify it in January.

We took 19 wins and 4 draws from our last 23 last season.

Correct. Some on here don't appreciate that Pep sees Gundo as the one who understands his tactics probably better anyone.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Depends if Curzon Ashton and King's Lynn are good on the break

“Curzon are so so good in transition, believe me, they create so so many dangerous situation”

I sincerely hope this comes and bites me in the arse, but I think we’re at the end of a truly great team’s period. It’s a season too far for 2/3/4 of our very key players. Please let’s remember them for the great servants they’ve been and not hound them out. This has been a wonderful team to support, and we have to support them in whatever the transition looks like (whether that’s supporting the likes of Walker/Gundo etc until replacements are found, or supporting the Rico’s of the world who are developing in a team on the decline.)

I’m looking forward to the next squad whoever they may be. At the time I thought 2011-2016 would be impossible to replace. We subsequently did ‘ok’!!

It’s not going to happen. We ship way too many goals.

It’s hard to watch and thats on the club and many other issues that don’t need repeating.

I think most of us will cherish the memories of this great set of players. Calling them out and saying he is done and this one is crap is not an enjoyable experience. We all say shit in the heat of the moment.

I genuinely have nothing but thanks to all the players. Moving on to a new set is overdue now and can’t come soon enough. Flogging a squad on its last legs is a reflection of poor transfer windows.

I hope they move on and respect the club.

The second goal was a joke. Has there been an easier goal scored in the prem than that one this season? Absolute shocker

There is none so blind as those that will not see.

Well you clearly can't see what was right in front of you.

Imbecile

 

[Shirley]

You're quite the prick. Fuck off back to Chelsea.

Actually he joined on here just after we played chelsea…hmmm

He was brought in second time round to add and cameo appearances which would have been just fine. Now he is being asked to do Rodri and Kovavic cover.

Had it not being for Gundogan we don’t win the game v Villa two seasons ago and therefore the third back to back title!

He has been a great player overall especially in the treble seasons.

He scored a belter in the cup final against the red mardarses.
In fact he won us the cup against the red mardarses.
He's top of my kool list.

Palace was very unlucky to only get 1 points.
