Tottenham vs. Crystal Palace match thread

[Nutmegyeti]

To be honest it doesn't even look zonal just piss poor defending. You change the set up to the situation. There professional footballers not sunday lge

Well it sure as hell isn’t man for man.

If you go man for man and someone scores, you can at least see where to point the finger

If it keeps happening you can see a pattern and fix it.

At the moment no one seems to have any idea what they are doing! That’s on the manager -

As they had four men around the back post someone at Tottenham has noticed.

Thing is, down to ten you usually see a tight defence, we look like there's a ton of space.

Minguezsa booked there when Canvot had worse 2 minutes ago and no foul given

 

[Palacesince64]

Also I would suggest that players such as Mitchell, Wharton, Richards, etc did not suddenly become bad players at the turn of the season. Leadership change required.

Mitchell hasn’t been bad, Richards has found his form in the last couple of games, don’t know who etc is and blaming Sage for Wharton’s inability to pass to his team mates is ridiculous.

This is the worst palace side ive seen in the premiership.

Yes we are a man down but it shouldn't mean its attack v defence for 80 mins with us unable to do anything with the ball whatsoever against a s*** spurs side. Its a complete s*** show.

 

[PalazioVecchio]

watching this match is torture.

ok Eagles. A Halloween question.

what are the best horror movies/series of the last two or three years ? Apart from Dr Sleep which is fantastic.

 

[Legal_Eagle11]

Sky commentary can’t wait for another VAR decision against Palace. I’m sick of hearing, “VAR will be checking that”.

Didn’t take long 🤣🤣🤣

Can you not see that the tactics are not working and as a result our best players are looking worse week on week. If that is not a managerial issue then I don’t know what is.

 

[TheBigToePunt]

Studs up, off you go.

But your studs must leave the ground in the act of running. Or even moving at all.

 

[Palacesince64]

We're playing like Dodos.

If anyone deserves the sack it’s Hobbs

 

[Nicholas91]

Stop saying sack Sage, the players have not thrown in the towel. Get behind your team,we are playing well and very unlucky to be down to ten.I think we look much better going forward than under OG, yes we are more vulnerable at the back but I believe PS deserves more time to get it right!!

How much more time are you thinking?

 

[Therealeaglestilidie]

Anyone like to explain why our big strapping centre half is wearing gloves 🤦‍♂️

The Brighton game must be up there.

The Brighton game must be up there.

And the Macclesfield massacre

 

[AndyPlymouth]

Pino needs to go off.

To prevent fingerprint evidence.

 

[Teddy Eagle]

Pino needs to go off.

And as if by magic.

They match his tights.

Going to have to disagree. I don't think any of our players have hit anywhere near their best level so far (aside from maybe Pino who looks good this season). Buck stops with the manager whose job it is to get the best out of them.
