Palace (A) Post Match Thread

Should get a ban, but if he's injured anyway, it'll be irrelevant.

Fake injury, he knew what he was doing.

Apologies if wrong but I thought it was refreshed after the New Year?

Think it was actually December 19th. I'm not sure why the arbitrary date, but for whatever reason it's up to 10 yellows now

He looked ok. No sign of limping, just groggy and bruised and battered. Probably rest him for Watford and the cup game then he’ll be back

I saw limping. Yes, he’ll be back. When? Bigger issue.

Well I watched it and the post match analysis and I never saw Owen laughing - twitter bollocks I suspect

I watched it, he was laughing at the challenge...no doubt about it I'm afraid

I was watching puncheon during the penalty and he looked like he was just staring at kdb, then the tackle happened.

If we play them again I hope someone reminds puncheon of that tackle today

I think he was just turned away from the penakty, but what he did do realising that kdb had the ball and with his ability to counter and thread the pass, puncheon decided to take him out maliciously

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Possibly. To me it's not like we desperately need him. We've pretty much battered every one and scored loads of goals. We had an off day today and still didn't lose

We have got potentially another 33 games this season. We need him and we need a left back.

Bristol at home

Looks like @fernandinho & Sane - despite their bookings, wont miss Watford - today’s game started the next period of cards

Puncheon actually stands with his back to the penalty when it is taken and the proceeds thereafter to run at and hack de Bruyne. High time Guardiola and the club spoke out about it. In the strongest terms. The bravery of referees to book dissent but to allow career ending challenges to go deserves to be a continued theme.

My thoughts at the timeof the assault as well
