Crystal Palace (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

[CΛL]

There was deffo no booing, dunno where that nonsense came from

Didn't expect that. Tremendous result. Weird thing is I didn't feel like that was a 5-2 game and I also felt like both city and palace actually missed their best chances which could easily have resulted in a crazy, memorable scoreline.

I along with everybody else questioned the lineup but once again Pep shown he knows best. Could have been 4 down before we scored mind and that would have turned nasty if we did. lot of luck in that result today, certainly wasn't a blueprint to copy going forward but some brilliant individual performances got us an absolutely crucial 3 points.

Special mention to gundo and kdb, both rallied the side and the crowd too, led from the front and dragged us back into that game through their quality but also sheer determination, they both really showed the value of players who have been there and done it today.

We were pants at the back for sure , however if we're going to count could have beens it could also have been 4 4 at that stage easily , can't count only one sides could have beens

They looked a lot more threatening that we did in that opening half hour ..... their pace on the break was ripping us to shreds, and we didn't seem able to stop it either until De Bruynes free kick.

Again you have avoided to mention that we could have also scored 4 during that time, may I ask what your issue is in recognising this ?

 

[blue whippet]

Two terrible goals to concede and thankfully the third was ruled out. I actually thought he was a good few yards off but was still relieved as you never know.
It was a different game once Kev got going and dragged us back into it, we had missed a few good chances prior to him sorting us out.
We played well in the second half, a lot more positive than we have been of late.
A victory in the sunshine is always a great way to spend an afternoon.

Thought Marmoush was magnificent, best I’ve seen him play in a City shirt.

Helped by us moving the ball more quickly. He will now have a run of games with him as the main man upfront. A nice runway into next season. I am very confident he will kick on in 25/26 and become a key player.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Was the team Pep sent out there, tactically set up correctly and mentally motivated to win from the off? It's all very well all the name callers and "I told you so's" having a w#nkfest now - but that team had to get angry and fight after the calamitous start and set up. To give it credit, it showed spirit and pride after the shameful start. It responded. Thankfully.

The name callers? Have a look at yourself in just about every Matchday thread, truly fucking pathetic. Your fucking bitterness abut people having a wank fest about City winning is just fucking weird

When was this booing supposed to have happened? Matterface was trying to shit stir during his interview with Pep, (I heard it in the car on the way back) suggesting to Pep that he was ‘unhappy with the crowd’… Pep shut him right up.

Don’t talk shit

 

[Boris Yeltsin]

I don't think he's overrated and his record shows he is a top quality player.

All in the past. I think he's been a calamity for well over a year now. He's slow and he hasn't read danger well at all.

 

[Bald fraud]

Well, if he plays like that for the rest of the season, you have to hope that the same club who said Gundo wasn't worth 2 years, then brought him back, would be happy to turn around on the KDB decision too?

I'd hate to watch him playing like that for somebody else next year

The way he’s talking sounds like he wants to stay at the highest level. I’d hate to see him move to another prem club

 

[Eccles Blue]

I said during the game that I trusted in Pep and I say it again. In Pep I trust always.
I was right to do so. :-) ;-)

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Jeez, after the season we're having, can't you just enjoy it??

I am enjoying it.
Just can't believe the turnaround.

 

[Micky Blue]

The way he’s talking sounds like he wants to stay at the highest level. I’d hate to see him move to another prem club

I don’t think he would do that.
I’m also not sure a top club in the PL would as the wages and his injury history may put them off.
I think a return to Germany is a possibility, maybe a reunion with Vinny.

 

[ancoats]

I don't see him going to a top club in the Premier League, USA maybe, Saudi Arabia maybe,

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Give yourself a break for one evening. Or get back to your justified wanking

We were poor the first 20 minutes.
After that a DeBruyne Masterclass.
I genuinely didn't see that comeback coming.
Delighted to see McAtee scoring and his general play was good.

Him alongside Casemiro and Mason Mount?

 

[CC1]

Family stand, heard no booing from anywhere. A decent reaction in the ground to being 2 down. I bet the cunts in the Matchday thread were booking, and some

There was NO booing.

 

[glauberbertistossedshirt]

There was NO booing.

I was saying BOO-urns

You can dream I suppose
