Infuriating, you have one of the best in the league at finishing a loose ball in the box in Chicha, and Perez is a sneaky finisher in tight spaces with his feet, and yet we've had at least a dozen opportunities to get the ball in the mix and we float it miles over their heads. Anderson the only one who has fired one in hard and low all match.

Will have to think about Diop at half time, walking a tightright esp again two fast players who like to drive on the counter attack

What a cuntingly **** half.

Palace get a shitey goal from a lucky flick on and then proceed to waste time for the next 40 minutes and throw themselves to ground at every possible opportunity.

Terrible refereeing performance thus far, letting them get away with absolutely everything.

Either it will stay like this and Palace will run the clock down for the entire second half. Or they will catch us on the counter and add another goal or two. Unfortunately for all our huff and puff we just don't have the quality to get back into the game. But it was nice to win the last two games. I'm grateful for that.

Masters of our own downfall in that half, they will now just defend for their lives and i do not think we have enough to break them down.
Brighton tore them apart midweek with 10 men we have a different problem to them and chances will be scarce as they have been so far.

In these games conceding first is bad very bad

Get Grady on for Perez. He's been invisible.

Then throw on Andy if it's still not working at the ~60th minute.

Palace should have had at least 3 players booked for time wasting, instead they have had none.
Palace could have had a couple of players booked for clear yellow card type fouls. They have had none.
Palace could have had two players booked for clear dives, instead they have had none.


Now don't get me wrong, we have been shockingly poor but you still expect the ref to do his job correctly.
