Crystal Palace PL (H) Post match thread

[come-on-barney]

Bernardo at fault for the pen trying a flick on the touchline instead of holding it up.
Our defending as a team has been shite for the last 6 or 7 matches.

All started with Edersons stupid clearance

I feel we are now in a Top 4 race.

Enough and I live in Spain btw

Keep coming back blue, it's in the blood.

Liverpool won’t have a 7 point lead regardless. 6 max. But they are shit too

But they are not shit and with their forwards they are scoring goals like we used to . If this carry’s on which looks likely then we won’t be in a title race but tbh we cannot win it every year with the same players because you. Cannot keep going to the well year in year out as in the end it dries up.

A blip? A fucking blip?
Losing the lead three times at Chelsea was supposed to be the blip, losing the lead v Liverpool was supposed to be the blip, losing the lead twice v Spuds was supposed to be another blip. Perhaps the collective shite at Villa and Wolves were blips, were they? Something is wrong, I just hope Pep knows what it is.

I have read these messages pretty much every season at round this point. I have even written them myself (Newcastle away 2019).

It's the one that kills us I fear.

Yes I agree.

Thrown away again, Alvarez and foden are nowhere near as good as made out

Thought Foden played ok. I’ve never rated Alvarez and haven’t changed my mind. He’s not a good enough striker and is anonymous in midfield. We may have to do what we can to challenge for top 4 and rebuild. Would help to know if pep is staying after next season.

Miles off it this season.
Look at our front 3, Alvarez, Jack and Phil
Doesnt scream goals does it, backed up by non scoring midfielders bar the odd one.
Despite our shit defending, it’s our attacking play and lack of finishing that’s cost us this season.
Poor squad management with a poor summer transfer wise, replacing 2 players who could score with yet more technical players but again won’t score you goals.
40 shots v Luton and today and a 2-1 win and 2-2 draw.

I feel we are now in a Top 4 race.

Yes we are.

We really do miss Gundogan don't we.
