Spur of the Moment said:
He got the ball in some great open positions, but either didn't make the right pass or stopped the forward momentum. Not sure that's all down to Eriksen's absence?

No definitely not.
Same could be said for some of Lamela’s play today.
But without Eriksen pulling the strings, our forward play in general looked very disjointed. We need him back ASAP.

Big Vic looked better. Probably because he had Moussa to do a lot of his running for him and he could drop a bit deeper and play between the centre halves. However, towards the end of the game when Palace had us pinned back, he really didn't impress. He's lacking the mobility that he used to have but he's doing a job but we need reinforcements because we can't ride our luck forever.

Think Sissoko covered every blade of grass today.

Within about a 20 second spell late in the second half, he was defending at right back and then all of sudden making a run down the left wing. Phenomenal levels of fitness.

This 100% <applause>
 
Wolves play Spurs 2-3, Arsenal play Palace 2-2, Palace play Spurs 0-1 and Arsenal play Wolves all in very close proximity so what are the bets on a close Arsenal win tomorrow?

Holy ****. I always knew there was a universe somewhere where this could happen but never dared to imagine it could be this one.

It's like someone pulled a plug out the back of Moussa Sissoko's head, he opened his eyes and said "I know football".

...or had the knowledge downloaded to his brain like Joe 90.

I hope United get dry humped tomorrow, and The Failed One has another spaz -attack in the postmatch interview.

No way, we are often the best side in the second half of the season but are let down by a bad start, this season we've played sh!te, but made a good start. We need Steptoeniho to do us a favour.
