They refused to sing the Valery song. (They we’re moaning about him passing back at 44 mins. He pointed to his imaginary watch).
Ryan looking for a forward pass, 20 yards from goal, nothing on for him so he opts to go back to Maya Yoshida on the other side of the halfway line - the fans then boo. He points to the clock (there were just 60 seconds until HT) and tells the fans to hush it, effectively.
Some dreadful passing from both teams tonight, seen better down the park If we could string a few more passes together this lot are for the taking, they look knackered
Swirling wind, pissing down with rain, and the pitch is waterlogged. Difficult to be accurate in those conditions.
****ing idiots. Have they ever heard of a thing called game management? What if he risked a forward pass, lost it and Palace went up the other end and scored?
Would like to see us move the ball a little bit quicker. So often we have had it in good positions but allowed a Palace player to walk back and block the pass or force an error.
The end of that half is how I would like to see us close games out after 90 minutes. Controlled possession
Hard to zip it around in these conditions, but we definitely dialed down the tempo in the final 15 minutes of the half.
