    Ooft. Shocking result against a woefully out of touch palace. That's confirmed your place in the championship.

    When Borini scored I danced like we won it.

    Our goal was a lucky one, O'shea injured, Catts injured, PvA limping at the end. That bastard Wickham scoring twice from nothing. Then Borini getting the equaliser when I was thinking "well thats us ****ed then"

    That point gets us out of the bottom 3 which is a get boost for the team. If we had lost that after Norwich lost, it would have killed our confidence

    That was a fighting point having lost JOS, Catts and Kirchhoff out of defence, we needed something and Borini provided.

    Pretty poor second half from us there, Palace started putting some pressure on and we dropped a bit deeper and got a bit edgy, poor goals to concede and thank god for Fabio. Really not impressed with N'Doye tonight I'd start with Borini instead of him at the weekend and Khazri does a lot of good things but his final ball was poor if he played with a bit more composure in the final third he'd be one hell of a player but he's like an over excited puppy when playing that final ball.

    Another positive to be grasped at.... Arsenal have to best Swansea tomorrow night to close the gap on Leicester.

    N'doye looked ok in the 1st half imo, got us the goal. He is been played out of position.

    I agree he is no winger, Sam puzzler, get Fabio on next home game and play the lad up front with Defoe, we simply have to go for wins at home.

    Not according to my calculations it isn't. Norwich will just about scuzz it now because of those two dropped points. We'll finish haplessly 19th.

    I am prediction league champion for Feb, so I wouldn't mess <laugh>

    totally disagree mate, he wasted a great opportunity when played in down the right ballooning it way over the bar, couple of other shots he had including his goal were pretty poor as well to be honest. He lost the ball a few times giving Zaha the chance to break at our defence and just never looked particularly comfortable on the ball, not the traits we need from a striker or wide man in our situation. to me he just looks like Kenwyne Jones without the flips.

    Yup. I don't under stand Sam's logic playing him where he does. It makes no gawd damn sense. CF or nowt. Fabio saved our blushes.

    He either genuinely thinks we're mathematically relegated or he just didn't think at all when he typed it. <laugh>

    Drop defo for borini, then bring defo on around 70 mins with tired players.
    That pointless long ball in to a midget is not working.

    Glad the fools who left early missed such a cracking goal. Spend 10 of thousands of pounds in their life time to play beat the ****ing traffic. Wish I could have been there. **** as we were.

    Happy with a point after 80 minutes! Great finish from Borini. Surely he starts on Saturday? N'Doye offers nothing. Can't see much in him at all. Can't understand how the corner they scored from was anything but a free kick to us! Blatant push by Wickham. Still poor defending.
