Crystal Palace vs Newcastle match thread

[Teddy Eagle]

"Rocketing inflation" evident when some Newcastle supporters remove their shirts at a match.

That's when shares in Ozempic soar.

Disagree mate.
You can't compare the 2....
Mateta had Sarr, Wharton and Kamada behind him.
Larsen had Pino, Hughes and Johnson.

You can't make a direct comparison. Larsen got zero service all game and let's not overhype Mateta.... he got gifted an open goal and then a penalty.

But you agree about Sarr and Johnson?

It was the difference between Mateta's hold-up play and Larsen's which caught my attention most, which obviously didn't depend on service. But granted Larsen has been getting his goals fractionally quicker than Mateta - but without carrying an injury.

i think Wharton is on a yellow, as our all 3 CBs, so there is some logic putting him on the bench on Thursday to avoid a semi ban.

Can't see it happening based on Sunday's line up.

Lacriox needs to be careful too as he'd be a massive miss

Resets after the quarters

Is the right answer 😀

Just cannot understanding the starting selection today, clearly and thank goodness the subs changed the game and big thank you to them for securing all three points. The selections bugs me, as the three points today were more important to the club and yet it seems OG preference is for the European games to boost his own cv?

The three points banished the most paranoid thoughts of relegation it's true and leapfrogging Newcastle in the table could be worth £1.1 in merit payment if it stays like that to the end of the season. Getting to the Conference league semis would be worth roughly twice that and progressing further more again. If we were to win the competition, as we realistically quite well could, a place in the Europa League - which is very unlikely to be achieved by league placing - would mean yet more spondulicks and help player recruitment - maybe even manager recruitment. I can't really see how the three points - besides not being at stake as it turned out - were so obviously ore important to the club.

As it stands if we finish 9th conference lge if villa win europa lge and finish 5th , we win conference we know that we're in europa and 10th spot is conference , I think

great - thanks for clarifying. Thought it was semis.

Yes, but the suspensions don't - so if any of Wharton, Canvot, Lacroix or Richards get booked tomorrow, they would miss the first semi final leg.

Any existing yellow card counts are not carried into the semi finals, but yellow card suspensions do carry.

Yes , you (and me) are correct - whilst yellows reset existing suspensions don't.

Where did the ref get those extra minutes in stoppage time from?

5 minutes on the board we were still playing after 10, didn't do my nerves any good.

Eddie Howe took it surprisingly well, given away by a shirt-tug in front of the ref that's really bad in the 90+3rd minute.

two substitutions, one penalty

Definitely agree about Johnson.

I can't see much promise in him unless he has a complete 180.... but I can see promise in Larsen.

I do acknowledge that Larsen can't hold up the ball and bully defenders like Mateta... but that's not his game. We need to play to Larsen's strengths and figure out how to utilise him...particularly as it looks like Mateta is still looking for.an exit.
