Crystal Palace (N) | FA Cup Final | Post Match Thread

We need to go back to the tippy tappy football when we used to pass teams to death with purpose and with an end result. I feel we abandoned that partly to accommodate Haaland but mainly because we didn't replace players like for like.
Every buy over the last couple of seasons has been inferior to the player that they replaced and now we're paying for it.
 
I rarely comment on a bad result, usually take it on the chin, drink my beer and move on. But that Henderson red decision and potentially playing 60 minutes against 10 men stinks.
We didnt help ourselves but we were playing against loaded dice
Yes, one terrible decision against us. But, we were still playing 11 v 11, so no disadvantage. Also, the penalty given to us was a bit iffy, as Bernardo was shown to be already on the way down before the contact.
 
Let’s be honest, we got a fairly soft penalty and ten minutes extra time. We simply weren’t good enough today.
Different game if Twatwell and VAR decided to apply the laws of the game instead of overriding it for the TV spectacle.
 
Pep is such a cretin sometimes, we haven’t seen Echeverri before , not even on the bench then throws him on with 15 to go .
The kid did well to be fair but it’s ridiculous management.
Haaland needs dropping and Kev is finished
 
Mate

The **** punched the ball away outside of his box

Saved a pen

Then plucked one out of the top corner hahaha!

FA got the fairytale
You cant control what others do.

You can only control what we do as a team - we werent good enough - the squad is done - keep creating excuses but that is what stops progress and redevelopment of the team

From the players that played today next season only Gvardiol (possibly Bernardo), Haaland, Foden(if he can get his form back) deserve to be in a starting 11...

Echevari is a prospect, Doku a decent squad player.

Huge questions on Sav, Dias, Akanji, Marmoush (not cause of quality but because of where does he fit in?)

Questions on whether OReilly can step up in his natural position

Done - KDB, Gundo, Grealish, Nunes - they all need to go.

Ederson looks like he will leave if rumours are to be true but Id get rid of Ortega first

Khusonov - looks decent BUT it has to be at centre half...Reis doesnt look physically ready

This is what we need to focus on instead of some arbitary decision and the performance of a goalkeeper doing his job
 
Sat outside the ground , that’s three fucking FA cup finals in twelve years where the players haven’t given a fuck . That’s me out now coming down here and wasting my money .
Only sing when we’re winning?
At least we showed up today. It was the best performance in months but palace had the bit between their teeth and rode their luck
 
Any team that’s turned up this season who’s wanted it more has beat us. We haven’t given a fuck this year no matter what competition we’ve been in we haven’t been arsed simple as that
