Crystal Palace Thread 2013/14

Connor Mcnamara on Five Live earlier today: "Tony Pulis stood in the technical area wearing what appears to be half of the club shop"
 
Just watching MOTD. That Palace pitch is dreadful. The ball just bobbles horrendously. Any team will struggle to play on it.

Unbelievable result. I never thought we would get a point let alone win today. I honestly could not pick a MOTM, because so many players deserved. Pulis deserves a lot of credit for the way he changed things. Nobody would ever accuse us of being gung ho and we certainly did not let the team of the leash, but we loosened it for this game. Our team broke in numbers and we thoroughly deserved the victory. We had so many chances and two penalties for me. The first Cahill challenge I thought was a pen, but I sit in the opposite end to where it happened so thought he got the ball with Bolasie. Was wrong, both clear pens. Fantastic performance and it will give the team so much confidence going into the Cardiff game.We have a real chance of staying up. The fans were fantastic and the players gave everything.

I am happy to see top lads like Speroni and Bolasie get a chance in the Prem. Speroni for me has overtaken Dougie as my most loved player. What a loyal servant and I hope he gets to go to the world cup. Bolasie going from playing in Malta to ripping apart the Chelsea right back. Just incredible.

Cryatal7 I only watched the highlights but fucking hell at times you were tearing Chelsea apart.

The atmosphere looked awesome.

Cheers.

Yeh thanks we really deserved this win. The highlights actually summed up the match. Last 20 we did get nervy and dropped too deep, but apart from Hazard's shot they did not create anything. I was telling the guy next to me that we need to bring someone on to keep possession. We bring on 0'Keefe(which I said would help us keep the ball) and then he promptly loses the ball with his first touch and kept giving the ball away all game. But just a fantastic game and as you said atmosphere was brilliant. Easily the best result, the best performance and best day at Selhurst this season.
 
I can't stand Pulis but credit to him for the job he's done at Palace, they look a really tight unit defensively now, Definitely one of our tougher fixtures in the run-in IMO.
 
I had earmarked this as a real potential banana skin ( even before their result yesterday ).


Pitch will be bone hard. Fans up for it etc.

We will need to have our A game to get 3 points from this fixture.
