Quinn Elmo Bruce Brady put in some great crosses first half, but we didnt have a CF to attack them. Prossy or Simmo would have loved them. The ridiculous attempted volley he did on the halfway line and losing his head after that cost him being in the top 3. Meyler was ten times better than Saturday, still going down like a tart too often though. Just how are Palace top?? Disappointed with Zaha, then he does a bit of magic at the end. Well done Stockdale. We're a good side but there's a few pieces missing. Stay in the top 6 till Xmas, then get those pieces sorted Brucey.
Quinn Mcshane Stockdale The first two here were easy choices,Quinn clearly want's premier football and he's going to fight for it. Mcshane,the best game he's played for us. Stockdale,sign him if you can in January please Brucey,at last we have a proper keeper. We looked a class act tonight folks,very high hopes for me !
Do we have to do the big ****fest for McShane every time he has an OK game? He was no better than Chester or Bruce tonight...
He made a few headers and generally passed the ball around nicely like everyone else in the first half. Did I miss anything else he did?
Don't think anyone is going over the top about him, just listing him in the top 3. Maybe because he has had some bad games in the past everyone has taken more notice when he plays well and after the stick he has got in the past I don't begrudge him that, probably got his confidence back now. Well anyway I haven't enjoyed a game as much for ages, frustrating not to get at least one goal but I am happy with a point.
Oooh you really are a grumpy piglet sometimes. He played well so give the lad some credit where it's due you nasty little monster.
McShane McShane McShane Evans and Aluko ran him close - but he was the best defender on the pitch by a MILE. Had the £20 million man Zaha in his pocket seemed to be on the end of everything and passing everything out of defence in an assured, composed manner. EXCELLENT.
I'm not saying he didn't play well, but so did the other defenders. It's not like he made some amazing tackles or anything to stand out it was just a decent defender's performance. It's the cringeworthy text vote he gets every time he plays alright that annoys me. Quinn for example ran his tits off today and had an all-round brilliant game in attack and defence, but McShane seems to win it on an almost ironic basis. Like people are more relieved than pleased with him.
I think he's **** normally, but I'm giving it to McShane this game(fair's fair). Followed by Evans and Aluko. If a game was 45 minutes long, then Brady would have walked it(I'm starting to warm to him in the left wing back role, once he's fully match fit, I think he could be outstanding).
Very magnanimous of you. However, McShane hasn't really been '****' at all this season, in fact in most games he has played he's been excellent.
