Hope she cheers up the next she rocks up at Wembley we don't doom and gloom merchant watching us we've enough alreadyEarly start. Got there straight from the club.
Aurier played shit but managed the most tackles and interceptions of anyone on the pitch.
Also created the most chances of anyone on our team.
Kane had a 100% pass accuracy
Can you now understand how fickle this sounds?I was seriously just about to hit the post button on my opening melt when Sonny hit the back of the net. Thank fuck..
England used to have a tendency to injure our players. It used to infuriate me. Hasn't happened recently though so, touch wood.3 points! Now let’s forget this ever happened.
Gazz had a few nervy moments but came up big. Son had one moment of quality, but that was enough. Aurier needs to get his head in the game.
Think we need the international break...coming at a good time for once.
Please say they also left early...Sat in front of two massive cunts whole game.
Every player was “fucking useless” or a “fucking tart”.
Llorente was a “cunt who can’t run”
His tactical support seemed to just be “Get in there for fuck sake”
Wasn’t a remarkable game but certainly didn’t deserve the melting and vitriol I was hearing
Can't name 3 better centerbacks.why would a side with Matip, Klavan and Lovren be in the market for a centre half?
Best time for week off IMHO.Fuck it.
No Dele, Lloris, Alderwiereld
Kane and Winks whacked and fucked early
3rd choice keeper, and a kid with limited experience adapting to PL at CB.
RB with no pre season and also adapting to PL
Rose just back from injury, first full game
Back line never played together.
Palace fighting for survival.
Fresher and more prepared.
Made it very difficult
We had Winks, Kane, Dier, Vertonghen and Sissoko played Wednesday.
Early KO
I don’t care how we won this game.
Other clubs would have crumbled I think
It’s the sign of a good team who can get results when not at their best .
It’s always been a scrap when we play Palace, Full strength.
Very, very important 3 points considering 2 ( hopefully all 4) of the rival teams will drop points today.
Can't name 3 better centerbacks.
...Scousers will send me death threats if I do.
That's not punishable by law however so even more insidious.Or send you Stan Boardman videos
Same thing really
If they keep putting in performances like today no way they go down.Does anyone else think palace are definitely not the worst team in the league and when Sahko and Zaza play they are actually half decent ?
I think they are unfortunate to have the opening part of their season destroyed by a Dutch idiot but luckily for them they are well within reach of some truly shite teams and will comfortably finish 12th - 15th. Soy will see them right
Your second paragraph is probably the best description of the game. Most guys couldn't click skills wise but put in honest shifts.Can't remember "enjoying" a Spurs win so little (apart from the result and the points of course) for a long time. We were piss poor, let's be honest, and looked very tired.
Gazza did well apart from the two weird moments, and the back 5 as a whole were good, Winksy as well in the first half. The rest were pretty gash although respect to them for digging deep. Sissoko for example was awful skills-wise but put in a helluva shift, especially second half. Sonny was real pish but scored a great goal and so on.
Would love to see a few mystery twinges emerge that keep our lad out of international duty, and that's me as a die-hard England fan.
Dele's Doris for me, smoking hot
Man of the match for me. Shone bright amongst the galaxy of stars. Well done my son.
Didn't think they were bad from the start,of the season I mean yes results didn't go the way they'd hoped! team looks steady enough not breathtaking but on the lines of W.B.A,Stoke getting results anyway they can but is there squad depth there? That will undo them if they don't pick up points. But of any of the teams at the bottom hope they stay up!Does anyone else think palace are definitely not the worst team in the league and when Sahko and Zaza play they are actually half decent ?
