Crystal Palace (A) Post-Match Thread

Fucking hell mate you’ll get burned at the stake on here for saying Gundogan was man of the match

We no longer burn posters at the stake, we’re not barbarians. We use science now

We’ll weigh him down and throw him in to Ashton Canal to see if he can breath underwater.

Sorry I didn’t think it was a penalty, Kevin stuck his foot out and only minimal contact apart from that.

TBH, nor did I

A real team performance with no standouts and no disasters. Eddie is simply the best goalkeeper in the PL. His two saves were only eclipsed by his distribution which once again was flawless. I gave motm to Gabby for his work rate, movement, attitude and goal. I thought Raz worked so hard but bloody hell he should have had a hat trick. Bernie, Kev, Gundo were off their best. Rodri and Fern were good although not tested too much. Mendy still gives the ball away far too much but good to see Cancelo shooting. Dave dis some brilliant stuff and some pretty ordinary. Puzzled as to where Kyle is.

KW was ill mate

I like to be right sometimes! ;)

Great game. Jesus looks really exciting when we attack. His technical skills are superb and I think we're looking at our future striker. Remember how young he is. He did great today, despite that brainfart when not passing to De Bruyne. I would honestly prefer Ferna and Rodri to act as CBs before Stones/Otamendi, when we face Liverpool. They did great. To see Mendy play 90 minutes and do pretty well was also a welcomed sight. Cancelo is not really up to the task just yet. One can see that Walker knows the system inside out but Cancelo will get there. He has a lot of quality. Gundogan works as a defensive mid but he looked a bit sloppy today.

We controlled most of the game but sometimes we have to learn how to just kick the ball the fck out of our own penalty box. Just clear it when it's needed. A more dangerous team (like Liverpool) would have punished us, which they also did in the past. Too many small and unecessary passes instead of a proper clearance. There's no need to take risks when we're up 2-0.

Now let's pray Liverpool drops tomorrow, even though it's highly unlikely considering the trainwreck United has become.

Gundogan was excellent today with dave and kev

Gundy was man of the match , he ran the game from start to finish not sure what game the Sky pundits were watching apart form his goal Merlin wasnt at his best , Jesus a very close second he is honest as the day is long and never puts less than 100% effort into his game. Expected a far tougher game from Palace and our defence wasnt really tested until the last ten minutes when the best keeper in europe produced his best . Over to the Rags :(

Atrocious officiating today! clear handball, KDB pushed over and decisions with or without var being involved are so wrong only a naive fool would argue otherwise! Thanks sky for fucking up football! Fixture changes, rule changes, over hyped media reaction to games(simply cannot watch stelling and his band of clowns prattle shite)bias towards Liverpool and united(they are their biggest customers). Football is a multi billion pound industry OFF COURSE its corrupt!! Very sad when we can see some of the best footballers to ever play the game.

I’m with you but just at the start of the second half Mendy gave one of their players a nudge and he went down like a sack of shit, Lino didn’t give it but Taylor did, towards the corner, Palace had a dangerous free kick. The push on KDB was worse.

Once again pep pulled it out of the bag

 

[aguerooooo]

just how brilliant were our fans tonight loud and proud sheer class to all that went Raz grafted but FFS he should have four Eddie top notch saves B SILVA IS NOT at his best in this position Lovely having KDB back not match fit but he offers what all world class players do

Another could have been 10 game....but a couple will do.
