Crystal Palace vs Leeds match thread

And what is ironic is the small fortune spent to be not very good... Money for old rope.

Anyone who can't handle the ball plays in defence. It was always like that at school.

I'll have you very much know that I take a great deal of personal offence to that unnecessarily accurate assessment.

Cant beat Sunday lge football but we are doing OK

i can smell roast beef coming from my kitchen. i think it'll be plated up at half time. i think i can empathise with those who left empty seats at Selhurst. 🙂

Nothing. Normal service - we're not very good. Barely scrape past Wolves, lose to Burnley, struggle against Larnaca, we're not very good. Did I say that already?

Correct.

Can’t take set pieces. Can’t create in open play. None of our players seem capable of heading the ball toward goal or a teammate and apparently our GK likes to stand well behind the goal line whilst catching the ball.

Looked like Benitez was going backwards into the goal that last corner

He does worry me. Always looks like there's a mistake in him.

 

[Frenchaigle]

They just showed goal line tech for the Benitez save ... wow that was close

 

[JHB]

This has been very low on quality. Very low indeed

Bit of a trend with a few prem back up keepers this week 😱

Am I bored with football or just Palace? I didn't watch MOTD last night

Leeds on two yellows Hughes must be feeling out of favour.

Johnson’s ball control is atrocious.

 

[Nicholas91]

Johnson is awful isn’t he

Am I bored with football or just Palace? I didn't watch MOTD last night

Same. I don’t know if I’m bored of football in general with all the backwards and sideways passing (Ray Wilkins would be Messi these days) or if I’ve become bored with football because of what we have watched the last few months. It’s dreadful again today.

 

[JHB]

Just imagine being a Spurs fan and knowing you are worse than this absolute rubbish

 

[123Mark]

Few empty seats today bit surprising given the exciting football we’re playing at minute or lunch with mummy’s today

Largely meaningless game on mothering Sunday, tickets fifty quid + a go ...

Missing Kamada in midfield, Lerma is lost.

 

[Uphill]

This is a poor show. Premier League? More like Hackney Marshes standard or worse>

In windy conditions it helps to keep the ball on the ground but no one here able to trap the ball, just atrocious heading tennis.

Leeds more likely to score, no shots on target and no skill from us. Only one result likely now and was that a Hughes hand ball?

 

[Teddy Eagle]

Leeds on two yellows Hughes must be feeling out of favour.

Wish he'd stick to fouling.

 

[TheBigToePunt]

100% a penalty.
