West Ham v Crystal Palace Match Thread

[MrRobbo]

I’ve been searching and seen nothing yet. This is a big moment, if he needs an op it’s massive.
Good news is Sarr should be back now

Add in a superb cameo from Nketiah against WHU.

Uche and Esse hopefully working this week on tactics / positioning. By October / November we could have an exciting attack again

Yep, as you said Sarr and Nketiah would soften the blow. But really hope he's ok.

An article in today’s Observer on players who have been booked most often without getting a red card. Our own Will Hughes tops the list with 86 career yellows, 0 reds. Anyone surprised?!

Clearly want Pino to be ok. Over time he could be a very good player for us. If Sarr is back that is a big lift though. At this stage having him back is probably a bigger positive then Pino being out is a negative

It's mad where we are in the league without even being at our best. Hopefully, this is a sign that we are in for an amazing season. It's been a similar story for Liverpool (albeit they've won all of their games), so this weekend's title-deciding match could be interesting 🙂

Yet I don't think anyone would describe him as 'dirty', would they.

How do you think Brighton fans might describe him? Competitive?

Certainly in his time at Palace most of his cards come under the "taking one for the team" related fouls to stop the opposition breaking through. He rarely get's booked for a needless foul such as time wasting, arguing back to the referee or dissent.

It's the professional shirt pull or obstruction; but he is always caught.

Perhaps next summer he should be sent to boot camp in Argentina to learn how to properly disguise the professional foul.

Esse playing tonight for the u21s home to Leeds. He has just scored a nice goal to put Palace 2-0 up. As Mark Bright commented ‘that should do him the world of good.’

I'd guess probably not lol.

No you need to wear a Liverpool shirt for that
