[.db.]

Note to self - don't buy anything by Under Armour.

Why’s that @malg ?

 

[Zenmanc]

Phils been awful too.. need to demand the ball more

Not the same playing wider. Just doesn't suit him.

 

[Lowtower]

Anyone just tuning in would think we've been battered, Sky is becoming more and more biased by the week.

 

[hilts]

It's officially 9 touches Sly have had a count and it's not enough from Haaland ! Yea but one of them touches was a goal ya twats !

Yet Murray said he would be happy with 9 touches if one was a goal and the other commentator agreed.
Where do you buy your sky blue selective hearing filters ? Are they available on amazon?

 

[vicblueman]

1up at HT have to be happy after that 45 mins.

Nunes had a great half
Haaland with a great header
Foden [bar free kick] & Silva not having impact
Nico,Dias,Josko,Donna & Cherki OK
NOR underutilised
Reijnders pushed forward not working

Think Pep will turn to forum favourite Sav on the hour

The manager has burnt him out got nothing left in the tank .

 

[urban genie]

Fucking Cheerleaders at HT???

You can tell Palace are Yank owned.

They have had them for years since 1969 to be exact were called the dollies until the 80s then renamed the crystals

it is a club tradition and one they should keep despite calls for it to be scraped as outdated by the mard arsesin our society

 

[Eaststander1]

God that kit is so fucking bad

With a bit of luck it will either sicken Palace, or dazzle them !

 

[Beanhead]

Wharton has been class.

He’s going to turn into a world beater. We should be all over him.

 

[argyle]

Didn't we have Sky cheerleaders at Maine Road for the first ever Sky Monday Night Football v QPR?

Did we? I remember other teams having them but not us.

 

[.db.]

Reijnders currently getting the Savio treatment.

The thing with Savinho, is, he does an awful lot wrong but at least he’s involved. Reijnders does next to nothing.

 

[Zenmanc]

Feels like we need a proper winger in to challenge at least one flank .. but of Bobb and Savi who do you gamble on.

 

[Dodge]

The absolute fucking shite they put up on the live BBC page.

 

[citytill1die84]

Too early to tell for the reindeer IMHO

Nobody gets time anymore. If they don't hit the ground running they're shit and need replacing lol

Shows what lack of football knowledge half this forum have.

 

[MCFC1993]

Sky showing goals in the other games at half time...

What's the point when they keep interrupting the game we've chosen to watch to show them?

 

[Kippax77]

Anyone think this is finishing 0-1?

Not so sure of that with Darren England on the pitch.
The guy sees things nobody else can see

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Personally I doubt we will keep a clean sheet which means our attack need to generate more chances.

So far so good though. And I want to see Cherki and foden playing together more.

 

[Blue Bogey]

If the game remains tight I don’t know how Pep can change personnel as we don’t have any game changers on the bench. That worries me…hopefully we score again and tighten up more at the back as we’re leaving Palace way too much space to get shots off.

 

[Roachy]

Tighten up in midfield. Loose balls once again finding the opposition a bit too easily.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Until Rodri is back or we bring in a top DM to help Nico then we're going to be wide open for teams to cut through and have no one solid to pass to when we're under pressure at the back.

Until then expect us to look vulnerable.

As someone posted earlier if we dropped off 5 yds that would help

 

[super_city_si]

Need to be better in midfield this half.
