    7 points from our first 4 is some going for a newly promoted team!

    By that point Palace had no option but to attack ...

    ... it was the perfect away performance for a promoted side in the PL.

    They'll be described as 'plucky' quite often this season ...

    ... which translates as 'doomed' <laugh>

    I was just gonna say. Todays result has given me more confidence that we might stay up more than the 2 wins.

    Think West Ham aren't the team they should be, and Brentford have had a lot of upheaval. Granted, Palace lost Eze, but they are still the real deal, with a great coach, and a solid side.

    Today is a great point.

    Would have taken that result before and definitely after the match, wows across the back line for the most part and Sadiki bossed them.

    Think we are a better team with ELF on the left and I hope that's the case against Villa, too many hopeful crosses to nobody.

    Hi everyone. Not been on in a while. What a point that was today. Brilliant.

    Still concerned we won’t create enough chances but that could well come with familiarity.

    But we don’t look out of place and our defence is 100% a premier league one.

    On that note, big shout out to Trai Hume who has very quietly become a very clear premier league quality player

    2 sons and 2 grandchildren must have been behind you to the right as you are looking at the pitch based upon the photo one of them sent me. Fantastic team performance :emoticon-0150-hands
