Crystal Palace PL (H) Post match thread

[theres only one carlito]

2 shots 2 goals. Our defending is fukin terrible at the moment.

Disgraceful not to win that game. Team has gone from having fantastic mental strength to being completely useless when holding a lead. Big questions need answered. Don’t deserve to be top so we can’t complain. Need to start winning these types of games asap or league will be gone soon. Dippers won’t fall apart as much as Arsenal last season.

We aren’t playing or coaching at a championship level right now. This is a really poor draw. Palace was lifeless in that game and we still didn’t finish them off.

I don’t want to hear about the refs. We can’t blame the refs for all of our failings.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

No other team on the planet draws and loses so often when battering the opposition on stats.

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

We really decided to rest on our laurels after CL win.

This is what happens with poor midfield purchases. I like Kovacic, but he's made of glass, Pep doesn't trust Nunes yet and Phillips is a paperweight. With KDB injured our midfield isn't strong enough. Don't even get me started on Bernardo playing on the wings and popping all over the place. I'd rather he be tempo setting next to Rodri.

 

[Beanhead]

That game management was absolutely non existent. Fucking pathetic lads.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

We’re winning Jack fucking shit.

Happy clappers can suck my fucking arse.

We’re shite.

 

[Nour]

This isn't how to win a league conceding goals late

 

[argyle]

Laughable that 2nd half. Did nothing but play it sideways for most of it.

They had 2 shots on target and scored both. We had 9.

So, so wasteful.

All us, dominated the match but just not killing it off.

 

[svennis pennis]

Said it after Spurs. We’ve got a mentality issue, nothing to suggest that has changed. We are conceding and dropping so many points in and around the 90th minute. It’s shocking to see, we need to see leaders and players step up, they are switching off at crucial moments in games, it’s lazy and not good enough, there is no urgency in this team at the minute.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

How far does VAR go back as Bernardo was clearly having his shirt pulled which allowed Palace to gain control of the ball in the lead up to the penalty

 

[Bluewonder]

The only word to describe that is unprofessional.

There is no way we should have failed to win that game from 2 up.

A number of those players need to take a look in the mirror and ask themselves if they still want to play here.

 

[M Gaudino]

the team just isnt that good.

Walker is vulnerable and Bernardo and Foden in particular are more risky than Gundogan was at the flicks and tricks. When they are creative and succesful it invariable leads to less opprtnitied than when we give it away and the opposition can run at us.

Ederson is invisible as always

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

Still proud to be Blue, its not over ffs.

 

[Blueknows]

2-0 up 14 mins to go with 80%possession looking comfortable we concede 2 , not good enough , not winning the league playing like this , and please pep stop walker wandering past the halfway line , lost count recently when it's cost us

 

[Vester]

Another dreadful performance just like every other game for over a month now. The team simply cant defend. It could/should have been called a foul on Bernardo in the build up before the pen but its f*cking Palace at home, we shouldn't need help from the ref to get a win.

 

[Alexia_Ko]

"But but we won the treble last season" which means nothing if we just allow ourselves to get worse each game

 

[Blu1]

How the Fook does Alvarez keep playing!

Peps game management this year is utter bollox

2.up but still allowing one ball over the top to cause issues

Energy, motivation & a plan 0/10

 

[Bluearmy]

Why are we not playing Kovacic with rodri in the middle. The form since he got injured, Rodri got suspended and we started pissing around with the middle is killing us
