Crystal Palace (A) 3/9: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Jinky]

And he’s bringing Hwang on instead of Sasa

 

[SSB]

Another defending masterclass from captain mute.

 

[WsWolf]

The sort of goal we never score because we want to take 6 touches every time we get it in that area. Kilman is weak as piss.

 

[big mean bunny]

Both fullbacks are very tucked in, you can see it on that replay as Ait is in a similar position, so thats obviously tactical you'd assume, and got caught out.

 

[Jack Regan]

Awful all around, Semedo just let's him cross it (after an appalling touch too) then we allow Édouard to get in between both defenders.

Pathetic!

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Semedo is so bad in those situations where he has to close the space.

 

[prawnking]

Quality delivery in from Mitchell, surely we're capable of that ourselves?

Was worried we'd huff and puff and be 'OK' then go 1-0 down and we did FFS

 

[WsWolf]

Imagine we had a centre forward that attacked a ball like that.

They don't have anything to attack. I don't think we've put a cross early behind the defence like that in the last 6 years.

 

[The Bear]

We scored that exact goal against Everton, just unlucky it was slightly offside.

 

[Del Woppio]

Some absolute bellend decide to reject £30m for Max Kilman, and instead give him a payrise and the armband. Just imagine being that fucking stupid.

It’s unbelievable.

Exactly. Just put it in a good area and and contact from either player is maybe a goal. We’d refuse that cross and recycle. Been doing it for years.

 

[Johnny75]

Get Cunha and Fabio off. Both garbage again

Another masterful team talk at HT from Gaz the Great?

Leaving Silva on is a huge mistake too.

Maybe his tactics are fucking shit and not getting the best out of any of the players.

 

[Alan]

Er, I think that rather changes the calculus here.

 

[Wolvensam]

The attack is just full of the same. Players who can create but not a goal scorer between them.

 

[Carrotdude]

Slow and cumbersome on the ball, misplacing simple passes and no idea what we’re actually trying to do when we get it. Feels familiar.

 

[Johnny75]

Early 2000 Alladyce/ Benitez stuff.

 

[The Bear]

Er, I think that rather changes the calculus here.

Point is, it was a very similar cross and finish. Which we apparently never do.

 

[jd1981]

bold prediction we’ve lost this game already

Sasa isn’t fit yet and we haven’t signed anyone else.

This is no different to how it’s been for years style and quality wise just with a weaker squad.
