Argh good attack there

We're struggling with their press. They'll get tired and we can score a couple more. We have to get a couple, not feeling confident with our defense today

Gazza M no. It’s not about counter attacking end to end. But what you have with Palace is a team with massive spaces between their players. Once we get the ball, this is exactly the type of opposition we look to pass around.

      Claudius I mentioned it up thread, but a high press was the smart play today for palace, and we looked shaky for large parts of the half. our goals didnt come from picking through the spaces they're leaving either. regardless, we're 3-1 up now so we can and should probably pick them off from here

        Gabriel with a weak header, created that chance for Palace.. Raya with a good save.

        This is a great game of football.

        Mateta elbows MLS but it's all okay cos it's vs us, no need for VAr

        Mateta is having a grand old time against us. Good save frmo Raya, and good save on the headed rebound.

        we're the ones leaving the spaces today. midfield has been AWOL all game. bring on rice if he's fit enough

        Get Rice on. Huge gaping hole in midfield.

        We really need to learn how to take quicker throw ins. Thats the secnd one today that the ref has blown his whistle for. This time MLS.

        PL refs are such clowns.

        We need a throw in coach.

        odegaard is having away days blues again. pretty average stuff from him today

        Calafiori on for MLS. Rice on for Kai.

        rice and calafiori on.

        good subs, as long as crazy horse rick doesn't do anything crazy
