Did palace break the rules with the subs? Thought it wa smeant to be half time and 3 instances for subs, but they had 4?

I’ll take his utter shite over Nunez’s anyday thanks.

Goals change games. He changed the game today. Again!!

Nunez was utter shite aswell, I don't need to make a case for him today.

Salah has been shite for months now.

He didn't change the game, the red card and subs did.

He didn't change the game though. The subs did. He benefitted from them changing the game. He is effective now when others make things for him, we need someone who has the threat he used to have on his own. It would be Nunez if teams were afraid of him scoring.

You aren't being serious.

He was awful, he shouldn't be playing all these games, but we don't have any choice.

I’ll take your version of awful every game til the end of the season please.
He’ll end up with 33 goals and 29 assists.
Any game an attacker scores a late equaliser and assists the winner cannot be described as awful. Ridiculous to say otherwise.

A reason why jota played all the time, even when he wasn't scoring, is he glues things together a bit. Gakpo does that more playing in the firmino role, but we can't play that formation really anymore.

And I’d have to disagree back - he was constantly getting caught in possession, more so than Trent - he was a liability.

He was dispossessed twice. I don't think that's unreasonable in a game like that. He constantly passed to under pressure, and managed to sort it out a majority of the time

He scored a deflection pat. Not even a slight nick. A wild deflection.

His assist was a pass 30 yards from goal. Then it was the Elliott show

Says more about our team performances as a whole.

Ali even though he's missed 1 game, is far more worthy....I'd say Virgil has been far more consistent too. The rest are not in contention because their performances have dropped significantly.

Gomez has been great the last 15. Very aggressive full back play

No surprise TBH. If Trent spent more time out there he'd probably have more goals and assists than he has now ... and we'd have far more width.

I'm with Fabs. Main problem with Endo was someone to offload to

That argument would hold water if he wasn’t by a country mile our highest assister this season along with goal scorer

Fair enough - but the easy ball was back to the defender and he often didn’t, took a touch and played himself into trouble.

A key component of being our DM is to receive the ball and break through the press either by passing or carrying - he just, in my opinion, wasn’t “on it” today and Palace knew it and they also targeted him.

Same happened to Mac A earlier in the season - it’s a tough position to fill for us. But Inthough Trent did well.
 
Also - I’m not sure how Salah gets to claim that goal - Harvey has one chalked off and called as an OG due to a big deflection earlier in the season.
