Crystal Palace vs. Hoffenheim match thread

About time poor old Sage got a break. Henderson should save their goal. Kamada should hit the target in the first half. Pino should score when 1v1. That's never a second yellow for Wharton, and definitely one for their handball. Before that equaliser Sage could genuinely point to his bad luck. Same was true with the Mateta red on Saturday.

Thing is, Sage is past the point where it's unfair to sack him after a game where he's had bad luck. He needed good performances and wins just to keep the wolves from his door. Instead
it has still been a chaotic, unconvincing performance, dug out at the death.

Will that be enough?
We look like a bunch of strangers.
Little sign of the team operating as a unit or patterns of play developing in game.
They were not strong opposition, but neither were Ipswich or Newcastle.
If there's good coaching during the week there's little evidence of it on the field.
 
It'a all good trying to play slick one touch football but the ball out of defence is so slow the opponents have time to get set and it's getting cut out as often as not, add to that an absolure dogshit defensive set up with no pace and net result is....bye bye Pierre!
Not that he's solely to blame I think Poundland Steve and the yanks need a good hiding 🤬🤬🤬
 
Ref was so bad but so was our defending at least we fought to the end the atmosphere has gone we need the 12th man back to help where are the HF when we need them
 
Outrageously frustrating. Not too bad going forward and looking better with JP in the side, which makes it even more frustrating that he is out for 3 games in the prem. we didn’t look like scoring however and it feels like there is too much focus on little flicks and moments, and not enough focus on just smacking it in the area and getting it in the bloody onion bag.

The defence. Christ above it’s looking torrid. Different 3 defenders every game without fail and they look like stranger. Ahonor is young, and it shows. Looked lost out there today and Mitchel saved him several times. Canvot looses focus and Richard’s hasn’t got the pace to make up for their mistakes a lot of the time. We just look shakey and suspect, every time we are on the back foot. Not sure what happened with Axel tonight but Sage clearly needs to his back 3 and stick with it where possible. Blokes can’t defend. Khalali was shite tonight. Constantly loosing the ball and making us look foolish for selling Monoz

Desperately unlucky. Ref was a complete bell piece and just downright awful. Injustices and dives all over the shop he was turning a blind eye to and giving out a red for that…. Shocking.

But sage. I’m loosing hope now to be honest after really wanting to stick with him. I just think he’s running out of ideas and more importantly out of time. Liverpools a write off but he needs a result soon as possible after that. I just think the team has too many gaps to be honest. Defence being the main issue as it’s been decimated

I’ve fully vented here so I apologise but needed to moan at someone
 
Good old Daichi. Saved us some embarrassment there.

Still, the team is going backwards under Sage. Get him out.
I can wait till we get a new coach in & just show that the players we have just are not a team

I doubt Sage is the cause of the amount of mis placed passes

I doubt Sage is tell our Wing backs to just keep passing back

I doubt Sage is telling Henderson to slow the game down let opposition re set & then kick it to them not us

The players are just a shambles of poor decision making, lack on basic knowledge & really suggest could be a struggle to get in a Swindon side at present

Any way I don’t agree but sack the manager & see who Hobbs , Parish & fans want to blame next arhhh we could always blame the ref every single game that’s an idea

If Poundland is saved is Palace part of the deal?
