A valuable draw for us.

and a kick in the head for Leicester, Everton, and Southampton.



an excellent afternoon Eagles !!!!!!!!!!!

Another very useful point. Chelsea are as bad as us when it comes to squandering chances. We really need to put a higher percentage away. One for the board and manager to muse over.

Will take that all day long as it falls within the camp of ‘a point more than I thought we’d get’.

COYP, roll on the next.

We had six shots on target against Chelsea's one.

Please….enjoy the draw!

Don’t criticise the players or tactics.

If you were at the game (like me), you could see the absolute commitment given by all the players! It was a thrilling game to watch and I’m delighted……well done Palace

We scored a really good team goal. Eze kept his cool and played a great ball to JPM.
More than happy with the point. We outfought them in the second half.

Excellent point. I bet Chelsea supporters are livid though at all their squandered chances. What a donkey Jackson is. I bet they’ll try to sell him in the summer so the usual hype of him by their paid media guys will now start. Buyers Beware!!!! Please let it not be us to be the suckers.

A great albeit unexpected point at home, deservedly so imo. Looking forward to see which players get blamed by posters on here. Boring. Support.

We had a very slow start, looked like being a long afternoon, but we dug in and held them until halftime. Everyone raised their game in the second half and could of taken all the points, nobody had a poor game, just got done by a bit of skill sometimes, whic h happens.

 

[PalazioVecchio]

More than happy with the point.

when you consider the recent form of Chelscum...........a brilliant afternoon for us.

 

[redshift]

Great effort. Feels like a win. Palmer pretty much negated second half.

 

[Jimmy Doyle]

Good to see a bit of daylight now between us and the teams below.

They'll be moaning all the way back to Sutton.

Apologies for any miscommunication I may have given you. But to confirm I am a following of Eagles

You sound like an automaton.

Yep... Two of my mates support them and we're in the away end... They both live in Sutton! 😂😂

A group of eagles is a Convocation but I have to admit I like the sound of a Following of Eagles. Has a nice ring to it. And appropriate in this context.

 

[Phil’s Barber]

Very good and well deserved point.

Great commitment and application from the players in the second half and SO pleased for JPM to get his goal.

COYP! 🔴🔵

 

[Ollie's Dad Ash.]

Watching BBC Final Score and Marvin Keon( I've done it on purpose) has just got JP's name wrong ,not once,but twice ! "Matta" then "Mattea"! This after having spent the last few hours boozing with a Chelsea fan giving me updates about how shy@t3 Palace are!!Ollie's Dad,Ash.

After pooping ourselves for the first 30 minutes we actually got going and played very well.
We have to start games better, especially against the better sides.

Mitchell was superb today and Guehi was solid as a rock. Munoz and Lacroix both earned their money. By contrast, Eze was appalling until he provided the assist for Mateta.

In the end, a very well deserved draw against a side with some world class players.

And a collective noun is born.
