Match Thread Crystal Palace v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[macst]

why cant we have fast, skillful players

We could have gone for Eze and Olise. We just like buying overpriced crabs who don’t put a shift in.

 

[God Benfrey]

As soon as I saw doucs and gomes in the middle I knew we were getting turned over but that still doesn't excuse the way in which we've conceded these goals

absolutely perplexing that the commentators are trying to force this narrative that Crystal Palace have any sort of FA Cup or indeed wider footballing pedigree - genuinely one of the smallest clubs in the PL

 

[Saint Domingo]

why cant we have fast, skillful players

We do, they just don’t want to run.

Gray, Richarlison, Iwobi, Gordon, all fast, all skilful, none can be arsed to put a shift in.

 

[Mark_EFC]

This is a blessing in disguise. They need to focus on league play and staying up and not wembley. We weren’t winning regardless of this game.

 

[Fansince1988]

Begovic is just better than Pickford. Our back line seems to have more confidence when he is in goal.

Exactly this

 

[maccavennie]

Drag a couple of these knobheads off

 

[witchdoc187]

Yessssssssssssss a shot on target. Well a passback

 

[Runub]

Just be grateful it’s not a league match lads

Yeah…..West Ham away next. We’ll be fine

 

[allen]

Does anyone remember momentum?

One win, then maybe another win. Or even a decent draw.

I used to like momentum.

 

[Ducans elbow]

We get no rub of the green. Balls seem to bounce to the feet of our opponents.

I think there’s more than that, being crap today goes a long way

 

[Drico]

But Richarlison "really cares" for the club, and Godfrey takes a great picture shouting into the crowd pretending to demonstrate his commitment.

Wake up, lads. These fellas have had us all off.

 

[Ghost Rider]

why cant we have fast, skillful players

Our fast skillful players would get into that palace team and look good in the process.

Problem is us.

 

[Bigduke1234]

From pathetic to comical, thats Everton

Comical; that is indeed the word

 

[nevbarnett]

At least it isn't a league game I suppose.
