Match Thread Crystal Palace (A) - Sat October 5th 12:30

[Mojo]

FFS Trent, poor decision making in the middle of the pitch

 

[dee]

Good run from Diaz

 

[Shay_K]

Squeaky bum time

 

[KopRed]

Wow Jaros caught that. Good man.

 

[binomial]

When Trent isn't spraying about his hollywood passes, he's pretty ordinary.

 

[Bradley]

Slot does not like or trust Nunez

Can you blame him?

 

[Shadey]

Diaz far better on the left than right.

 

[Modo]

I'd get Gomez on

Hopefully Real Madrid will think the same thing.

 

[KopRed]

I'd get Gomez on

I thought we made x3 subs?

 

[dee]

I thought we made x3 subs?

We have now

 

[Modo]

Yay Endo

 

[Farkmaster]

Slot does not like or trust Nunez

I think it's horses for courses, but the courses are limited.

Has to be said though, that none of our starting attackers were good enough today. Jota was very lively off the ball for a half, but had to score that one, would have made for an easier game. Gakpo is down a level, Salah is tired.

 

[KopRed]

We have now

Does the halftime sub not count? Ok got it.

 

[HC]

I know it sounds obvious but are we more dependent on forward form than citeh / arsenal ?

Feels like when their forwards aren't firing whoever always comes up and delivers in their place

 

[binomial]

Good intro by Endo.

 

[KopRed]

2 japs coming on at the same time for different teams.

 

[dee]

OhFFS should have had another

 

[Shay_K]

Nice crunch from Endo

 

[Modo]

Fuck me Lacroix is fast

 

[binomial]

As terrible as Palace have been, they've done well to block our final shot/pass.

 

[dmishra]

Jota needed to play that earlier

Szobo when he first came here would have lit this game up. Instead he played safe balls, overplayed, was boring.

 

[Markeh]

that ball was on for jota if he got his head up immediately

 

[Fabio]

Jota needed to play that earlier

hes exhausted looking the way he couldn't control the ball. Really should have taken him off earlier

 

[Modo]

The Lying Rag is causing us some problems

 

[Fabio]

what the fuck was that virgil

 

[dee]

Keep it in corner

 

[dmishra]

Jaros booting it upfield at every opportunity. Can’t say I blame him - pretty difficult to show confidence when you’re coming in completely from the cold

 

[Fabio]

keep it in the corner for a bit. take the sting out the game
