Match Thread Crystal Palace v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[NorthernBlue]

Soon have DCL back though lads. All rests on him apparently.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Players will have to be told things at half time that they just continuously don’t grasp.

‘Run harder you lazy idiots’ ‘actually try’ ‘clear your lines properly first time’ ‘maybe tackle some of their players’

Seems like if they’re not being constantly told this all the time then they just go back to walking around half arseing everything.

Coleman abysmal
Holgate and Keane abysmal
Townsend anonymous again
Doucoure anonymous
Gomes abysmal
Gray made the mistake
Richarlison offering nothing

Can't have 7 players offering absolutely nothing and expect to be picking up anything.

You have forgotten Delph. He is like a child playing with the grown-ups. Brands did buy only quality. Midgets and no brainers.

 

[Frenk]

Wow, what a game we have here lads!












Of the most mind numbing football man has ever seen!

 

[AndyKing58]

We can’t string 2 - 3 passes together. It's comical. WTF do we do in training.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Saw this coming the second I knew Allan wasn’t playing. He gets a lot of stick on here from some but Allan and Doucoure are vital and we have nobody close to being able to do what they do.

 

[tsubaki]

Said the same to my arl fella - Richarlison, Doucoure and Gray the only decent players on that pitch for us.

I would even play Kenny over Coleman currently the blokes absolutely Ashley Williams level finished.

certainly tolerating it in the way that we are is not good - Kenny probably isn't the answer either, but Coleman badly needs a dropping

 

[MikeH72]

Everyone jumping on the one same point. Just because the lad has scored for them and in good form.

Not even the point I was making. Absolute waste of time this forum.

Stop making ridiculous points then and no one will jump on it?

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I just can't get my head around the tactics. Going away to Palace and setting up to hang on for a point? Why?

Parking the bus (against Palace lol ) and hoping to nick one on the break tactics mate. The good thing is we'll have to go for it in the second half.

 

[Joey66]

You cannot give gift goals away like that ......a few players have made bad cleareces & we rode our luck ....
Playing far too deep ......Godfrey & Gomes only trying ....

 

[Eggs]

This is the easiest Palace have had it all season.

We are complete walk overs.

Need a big response second half!

….it’s what happens when you allow teams easy possession. It really is all about getting bodies behind the ball but confidence builds with the opposition. It’s no coincidence that opponents regularly score first.

Grim. Dreadful to watch.

My unpopular opinion now becoming less unpopular

 

[bluesb1970]

100% down to Gray that goal.

He didn’t do well there but had a terrible ball from Coleman to deal with

 

[Bigjoe]

Awful first half, we look uninterested.

 

[Milkman]

Doucoure has to do more in that second half. Not seen a game bypass a player more since Andre Gomes' last start.
