He hit them well harder last season & got closer to goal with his runs so power wasn't an issue. He beat the keeper a few times with his footwork too.
I'm seemingly in a minority of one, but I'm convinced he's just played too much in the last two seasons (& in the summer).
What effected them the other 36 fucking games?I really think the Gerrard thing affected the team.
I think not having anyone as good as Gerrard in his prime affected the team.I really think the Gerrard thing affected the team.
Love him, but announcing his exit in the middle of the season was always a bad idea, especially given his status at the club. It overshadows every thing else going on. Ginsoak did it once, and the Scum went shit for the rest of the season.
Oh well, at last the extended Stevie G farewell tour is about to end.
It's a hell of a let off for Rodgers. The occasion has hidden from view what a horrendous performance he's given as manager in these past few games. The camera didn't even focus on him once during that debacle, and he probably won't get asked much about it afterwards.
His versatility is quickly becoming his undoing.Can looks a worse footballer every single week. Hes regressing.
No centre back ever had an excuse to run into his net ahead of the ball going across the box.Also, how shit is Moreno. Lovren isn't much better either.
And a striker...Men against boys that. Palace looked bigger, stronger, faster and hungrier all over the pitch. We looked like a soft touch. Shame SG couldn't help out, sadly it's not in him anymore.
No complaints about the game, Palace always looked the most likely to score.
Our team needs a great deal of organizational and fitness work during summer.
