Crystal Palace vs Shakhtar Donetsk match thread

What a night, one of those special Palace matches I'll remember for a long time.
Wharton, Mitchell or Kamada MOTM for me, Pino and Munoz excellent too.

Having a complete nightmate trying to book flights/hotel, so may settle for watching it at Boxpark with other Palace fans.

Up the Palace!

Joel Ward just now in the post match quickly corrected himself when he said the final could "potentially" be Glasner's last match for Palace - he stumbled and then said it would be his last match etc.

An honest mistake or a Freudian slip because he knows talks are happening. 🤔

Well!

Pinot on it, Adam superb, Kamada immense, fantastic game management.



What a night!

It’s always best to go out on a high. If we win the Conference League Final, that will be 3 trophies inside thirteen months. That’s performance that will get some of the big European clubs interested in Glasner’s services.

We're a big European club. Apart from the finances, ground and depth of squad.

Shakhtar were a good side but lacked finish.
It will be a much tougher game in the final. Rayo are a mid table side but playing in a much stronger league.
It’s going to take a special performance to lift that trophy.

The vast difference between us knocking it around at the back very riskily and often producing nothing, to Canvot occasionally just running it up the pitch for Palace possession in attack, is incredible.

Sometime I would like to see Canvot and Mitchell trade places from the start. Their physical stature notwithstanding, Jaydee seems the more dangerous attacker and Tyrick the more reliable defender...

Whilst (still) celebrating our win, I must say I was really impressed by Shakhtar's Eguinaldo. He's a young gifted player who is positive and can create.

Anyone else note him?

I never thought id hear 'we've got super Oli Glasner' again at Selhurst Park, but there it was tonight... there's a unity in the air: players, fans, mgt...

... I genuinely dont think playing 3 at the back will win you the league regardless of the club you manage... but it does make you a very strong cup team, especially as you go deep into a tournament... its an interesting dilemma. As someone who has been to all the Euro home games this season (including frederikstad), there have been been ups and downs, but clearly thats all water under the bridge now...

I hope we dont change too much from this template next season.

Premiership a must (but dont need to be top 10)
Every cup competition, take it seriously.
Keep bringing in the best young talent from Championship.
Strong youth team.
Strong women's team.

Honestly, it's been great. Two years ago to the week we demolished Man U 4-0!

Amazing - so proud to be Palace.

Hard to choose a MOTM but Wharton, Mitchell, Munoz and Sarr all worth of it.
