12 shots to their 9, 10 corners to their 9. Hardly the stats of a side parking the bus, all the possession stats mean is that you had more meaningless possession that’s literally it. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...tal-palace-premier-league-live-score-updates/
.....and there’s no need for panic buying as we’re sat in mid table. Who says they’re not good enough btw?
There's every need to panic buy, unless you're suggesting you're happy with 9th? 31 goals in 28 games this season is a good indicator that they're not good enough to be challenging for Europe.
7th place is probably still going to be a Europa place. You're 6 points off it and Burnley's squad is struggling. Hardly impossible. Leicester could give it a good go too, to be honest.
Why? We scored and they didn't. Even if everything else is equal, where did luck come into it? They had a couple of good chances to put the ball in the net and they didn't take them. They didn't have a good goal ruled out or a player incorrectly sent off or something. Palace gave us a good game. They came with an effective strategy and it nearly worked. We had a disrupted first half, due to a couple of injuries and they caused us problems on the break. They didn't have a striker in their team and it showed, though. We had a goalscorer and he did what he's there to do.
Can’t you Spuds concede a ****ing thing? Jesus Christ! Ok you were the bollocks, you deserved to smash the **** out of them. Done
We've been linked with him in the past. It's a tricky one, as I think he needs to be a regular starter to get him playing at 100%. Our front four's currently Kane, Eriksen, Son and Alli. Son's usually the one left out, if anyone's benched. Does he offer more than the Korean? I don't think so, but he'd offer something different. Would that suit him or us? Not sure.
That you're going to look to buy players in the transfer window. ****ing hell Tobes, what side of the bed did you get out of this morning?
I'd also be wary about him turning out like the other wingers we've tried in the last couple of seasons. Atletico have put Carrasco on the transfer list, so maybe another Belgian might be the way to go, if we could persuade him to join? Sessegnon's the rumour hanging around, but everyone's after him now. Tough one.
All the stats were similar apart from goals scored and 70/30 % possession yet Palaces deserved to win. Tobes is in one of his moods..good luck...I'm out
