Stones played his way back into the team, and that was before he came on.
Maybe a chance to give Palmer more minutes. Cant do worse than KDB at present.the midweek game is bigger than the derby
pep should play more of the quality youth players we have at home vs games like palace just to fresh it up and rest the big players. we just look so leggy and dare i say slow and KDB is not the player he has been for 4 or 5 years
its a puzzle to what is wrong with KDB ? is it a injury problem that is taking a long time to get over or is it just burn out and got nothing in the tank. what i will say is we have B.silva gundogan foden all good enough for KDB to take a break of a couple of weeks and lets see what that does for him
Fair assessment. For me though the key was Ederson letting the half hit shot in which made it uphill. KDB is so off the boil, the tea's gone cold.Aside from the ref also sticking it to us, we were our own worst enemy.
Laporte started as he meant to go on, which thankfully means Stones will now come back in to the fold.
No use keeping the pitch wide if you don't have anyone in the middle or at top to make it work today.
Palace forced us to play the extra pass out wide and doubled up on being aggressive on Jesus and Phil.
Cancelo and Walker were poor, as was Grealish, who seemingly wants to play safe and has had all spotenitity removed by Pep's demands.
We have a paint my numbers system, so it only needs to go a man down and the whole thing falls apart.
Pissed off with the decisions against us and thought it strange Pep waited five minutes to introduce Stones.
Jesus was our best player and felt we needed to try and get him and Bernie all the ball more in second half to try and at least commit Palace a bit more.
Eddie was ropey for the goal, as it was a scuffed shot.
We move on, Liverpool dropping points today was also a surprise and pressure now on with United to come.
Really? That's spooky if correct and it's HalloweenOur last 60 Saturday 3pm kick offs stretching back to January 2015:

2 Losses
BOTH defeats and one of the draws to Palace…
Pitch invasion, police horses. Those were the days! But didn't we win the following week?That was the worst game I have been to since Notts County away when we were 3-0 down at half time, 1985 I think!
Don't even really need to sell anyone. We still have the 150m we supposedly saved from the Kane bid.Yeah spot on. We could get still get good money for Sterling and use it to buy a proper goal sorer.
