Crystal Palace (A) Post-Match Thread

[Bill the Blue]

All the stress about our defense and they all played well.. Thought Cancelo had a great game, Saha didn't do much bar 1 shot at the end.. Tricky game out of the way. It has the feeling like we're going on a run. Time to reel the dippers in. The implosion at the end of the season when we do them again is going to be epic.. Haha!!

Good win but should have been by more. Gab was very good aside from not squaring to KDB for the tap in and then gifting them the ball on the edge of our box, the next move led to their corner and Ederson's great save.
Gundogan, despite the usual suspects decrying him in the pre-match thread, was very good aside from (again) gifting the ball away on the edge of our box forcing another great save from Ederson (spot the theme here)
Ederson was great, Bernado looked sharper, Rodri and Ferny did well in their roles. Cancelo impressed as well.
Need to stop wasting so many gilt edged chances and need to stop gifting the ball away in our half with Fifa 20/Youtube showreel type flicks.
Controlled so much of that match yet could have been hanging on at the end had it not been for Ederson.
It's good to win at a place where other teams may well struggle, Liverpool go there in a few weeks time and CP will make it tough for them

*can*
It's okay S.B. we've done it. Too much time has elapsed now for V.A.R to intervene. ;-)

Don’t drop your guard, mate — Riley has just gotten out of his coffin at PGMOL headquarters.

Would like to hear what Pep says to Jesus for that moment ,he didn´t pass to de bruyne to score an easy empty net goal...haven´t been more pissed about someone for a while..

Think somebody needs to put the old L and R on Raheem's boots, so he puts them on the right feet next game.
Thought we were in total control throughout and am impressed with Cancelo. The whole team looked a lot
more on it, than last week.

* edit Oooooh I can watch MOTD this week :)

He will say superb performance more of that

Comfortable as can be as Palace decided to defend and defend. Merlin motm cool as fuck, most players playing well especially in the first half. Should've and could've been five or six though, really wasteful by Sterling in particular, needs to improve more on his finishing. Come on you rag bastards tomorrow.

The dippers will be given VAR help if it’s not going their way when they turn up at Palace. How the foul on KEV wasn’t given is purely comical, ANYWHERE else on the pitch it’s a foul.

I think he will go with "incredible" :)

.....Oh I forgot. Fuck Taylor and var! Taylor gave them every cheap foul going and how that wasn't a penalty I have no idea. A player going past you, just shove him over, it's not a foul? Yeah right!
