Crystal Palace Build Up

[Kenneth]

Performances are secondary, all about the wins now, and the confidence they bring should give us momentum.

[Leyton388]

Ronaldo has a poster of Salah in his bedroom.

[Tatterdemalion]

Top 4 all go through to the group stages.

so it's different this season compared to previous?

[Buzzo]

Dermot Gallagher in backing the refs decision shocker.

[SB]

so it's different this season compared to previous?

Yep 4th goes straight through.

[Irishnev]

Doesn't the 4th place have to play a play-off?
Surely cuts down on pre-season preparation?

From next season on - NO

[SB]

Karius did bloody well tonight. A couple of very good saves

[Tatterdemalion]

Yep 4th goes straight through.

From next season on - NO

Great - didn't realise that, thanks.

[McDermotX]

Souness' understanding of momentum, inertia and gravity is positively worrying.

[brightred]

so it's different this season compared to previous?

Yep. They changed the rules for clubs from England, Spain, Italy and Germany so that the top 4 from the big leagues always get in.

When he played for us.... I absolutely hated it. He just isnt the sort of footballer I like and he isnt the sort of forward we've ever had. remember Jurgen going absolutely mental at him for being lazy and not moving.

However, add in to that he is ****ing ****e. He always plays like a Centre Back who has been thrown up front for the last 5 mins.

Awful player.

I didn't like his style of play lazy offering nothing outside the box etc. But he did well at Villa (a goal every other game ore something close), but he was terrible with us and he doesn't look to have improved since.

Also he has 2 goals in 25 games this season

[brightred]

If I though Zaha could stay fit for a season I'd take him in a heartbeat.

Me too. He looked dangerous every time he got the ball.

[Chris]

Souey owned Gallagher there. Beautiful. Good to have someone battling for us and telling the truth in fairness!

[Leyton388]

Yeah good to see Gallagher being called out on his BS. Yet the same baldy cunt thought the "touch" on Lamela warranted a pen

[Exiled_red]

What was all the **** about Mane scoring the equalizer but should he have been on the pitch? The handball incident happen after he scored. It sounded like sky were trying to spin it that he should have been off and then we wouldn't have got the equalizer.
