    Its difficult for us as Palace have defended from the start as a full team, happy to play on the break. The costly mistake has made that even more certain.

    Unsure why we are playing Smallbone on the wing. Always got the impression he was a centre/attacking midfielder.

    We are so flat footed. Need to raise the pace so much.

    Definitely would do Djenepo for Smallbone at half time. We need a spark from somewhere, palace are looking solid

    Anyone else beginning to wish that someone would put McManaman's face in a blender?

    Not really his fault but I don't think Smallbone is ready for this level, certainly not physically anyway.

    The only alternative we have in the squad, to Armstrong, in terms of holding the ball, taking a player on to create space, is Boufal.
    Djenepo is a closer match than Smallbone, so hopefully Ralph will be bold and give him 45 minutes.
