Mad half of football that, there’s nothing any manager can do if this is the level of ability we have at our disposal, that midfield is utterly diabolical.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Gordon off, DCL on

Don't think Lampard is gonna risk DCL chasing an FA cup match

 

[miami]

Some crazy shouts here about getting gordon off. The only player we have with energy and who tries to make things happen. Like he's been the worst player we've had.....

 

[HTCHERO]

To be fair it'd be 3-0 only for Seamus and that huge tackle to block it, only one in the side capable of it.

Tackle I agree but didn't he jockey for the second goal about 2 miles away? Saved a goal and played a part in the second goal

 

[Izzy1878]

They need the fans at Goodison....
These charlatans can't perform without them.

 

[BlueTX]

Duke rooted to his spot on the corner and not tracking the man on the counter on the Palace goals?

Yes, defense needs sorting (Gomes is worthless, which hinders an already sketchy backline) but the complete lack of goals in the team is equally worrisome for me.

 

[Fansince1988]

Newcastle. Soton. Spurs now palace.

Every game the same, start ok ish (not particularly great let’s be honest) then absolutely crumble when the first goal goes in.

These players just aren’t equipped with any expectation, or any crowd being against them.

There is literally zero point playing with three centre backs as we don’t appear to have any clue how to play the system properly.

West Ham and Burnley away next…

And we are missing Allan in those games, which should never have been the case.

 

[SupaStake]

If we can get out of the blocks early in the 2nd game could be on, so hard to see that effort not pay any dividends

 

[Frenk]

This is what happens when you can't defend.

Feel sorry for the attacking players really.

I don’t they are crap too.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

woeful defending. Keane and holgate.

 

[Jacob]

Doucoure well off the pace again ambling round like an oul arse. Holgate standing there like one o Lewiss's again. Seamus and Gordon good.. Richy trying hard. We don't deserve to be two down though all the same. Get one back early a must...

 

[Melchizedek]

Championship defence gets you this.

Boreham wood defended better than we have.

 

[ToffeeDan]

Same complaints from Leicester fans when he was there which is why he didn't make it... Very bipolar when it comes to his performances.

Bipolar is a whole lot better than Holgate's defending, Gomes and I'lldolyingdown Doucoure

 

[TyphooToffee]

Ho hum.

At least we're not dropping points.

That was my point about not being arsed about losing this
