Crystal Palace Build Up

[Chris]

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

Yep, that changed quickly! Like all the pricks saying Lewin's was a pen in the derby yet when one of ours got a softish one (which was more of a pen that Everton's) there was uproar!

Gotta say fair play to Hodgson there, sky desperately trying to bait him in to saying Palace got robbed but wasn't having any of it.

[Exiled_red]

Also I hope Palace get relegated.

To be fair to Gallacher (and I loathe this after game '5th official' interview) he did at least say the ref got it wrong for Mane's possible second yellow. So its not like he just reinforced the refs decisions despite evidence to the contrary.
Right on the first instance with Mane and wrong with the second.

They have a bit of a hex on us, need to get rid of them and replace them with Fulham

[Slinky Skills]

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

I really like him tbh, he'd offer us loads.

[spud_gun]

Seriously? He's far too inconsistent and the prices being banded about for him are just mental. Hey much better vale on the continent.

[McDermotX]

He's extremely all over the place......Whenever he wasn't catching TAA out, he was miscontrolling the ball and running it out to touch.

Theres a player there though, but it needs to be dragged out by some impressive coaching.

[BG1973]

A Benteke leg break would be a dream ending to the game

You’re on fire today.

[spud_gun]

Have we ever had a player who scored in more games in a season?

He is scoring every game

Its unreal.

It’s the actual number of games also though? Someone posted that he had scored in 21 of our league games. That’s incredible.

Ultimately every stat about him is nuts.

...and this is his tricky settling in season.

[spud_gun]

83/84 Rush scored 47 in 65 games in all competitions
This season Salah has scored 37 in 41 games in all competitions.

That's mad.

[Fivex]

Same ratio extended to 65 games, Salah would be on 58

[BigChief]

Match of the day is eye watering bad nowadays. Murphy and Shearer wouldn't know football punditry if it bit them on the arse. It's a contact sport, both say the exact opposite when an English player goes down: well there was contact it must be a penalty. ****s.

Never watching MOTD again with these two ****s on.

[BG1973]

So bad wasn’t it.

If ‘it’s a contact sport’ is their argument why did they get a penalty after Saha got his shot off?

Incredibly frustrating that these are our ‘experts’

Time listening to those ****s could have been spent admiring Ox’s fine ball to Robertson, his beautifully cushioned ball and Salah’s genius again. But instead they didn’t show any of our goals.
