But if you followed the ball tracking, 9" higher and that was a goal, the keeper would have been nowhere.
1-1 HT. Played well, took the lead, then sat back and tried to draw them out to counter, for absolutely no reason. We were completely in control and they were creating nothing. Just keep playing like that. ****ing mindless mistakes and ludicrous sloppiness. So, so poor.
Should have been 3 up, despite carrying Doherty and Son. Lucas has been excellent, but you can't make the mistakes we did in that 5 minute period.
Controlled most of the game but suckerpunched due to a lack of closing down and marking. Lucas has played well so far whilst Bale also looks lively. Son playing so poor of late whilst it’s just natural for Doherty and captain crab to be ****ing dog awful. Triple sub at half time, please?
How predictable was that - allowed Palace to slowly build up momentum and then bang Doherty ambles across and arrives just after the cross has been delivered, great header but another poor goal from a right wing cross
As I side earlier, 'down our right hand side' As I said: 'thats where most of their goals have been made'.
At least it didn't happen in the last 5 minutes, time to respond. From an entertainment perspective it's probably for the best. Hopefully won't now defend the score for 45 minutes
