Palace look a disaster facing set piece deliveries or attacks from wide. We’re not exactly dominant but looking good.
Redders and Tella are driving forwards a lot. We’ve not looked that threatened, though they do have a very strong bench to call on.
Good to see that Palace are as bad at defending set pieces as we are.
Giving them far too much space and time on the ball and it has to be said that some of their attacking play has been very quick and very incisive, just lacking the final pass.
They’ve been tearing us apart down our right side, at times, and that’s with Zaha on the bench. Not sure why they are getting so much joy that side but they seem to have a man spare each time.
Reference the ref stopping play for Salisu’s head injury.
This happened twice at Brighton, when we had the ball, and each time the ref restarted the game by giving the ball to Brighton.
Today, when he stopped the game, Palace had the ball and did he restart the game by giving the ball to us? Did he feck. Are they just making it up as they go?

Che has been awful with his passing. Played an impossible pass for Romeu and the end result is a goal for Palace.
And there we go. We have been anaemic again today.
