Stats from today

[Zippity]

Palace started the day in the bottom 3.

Not good enough by any measure.

(and yes, it was an away point but that was poor)

[Nufcian]

Maybe we?ll get points off Leicester and Ipswich in December, but I honestly don?t fancy us against any of the rest if we carry on playing as we are.

[Zippity]

Our xG today was...drum roll...0.02

Now, I know folk are sceptical about expected goals and all that but, basically, it tells the story of a team not set up to attack...or, a team incapable of breaking down a very average team in order to create goal scoring opportunities. Either scenario is a worry.

Under Howe we have been poor breaking down a low block for a long time, today was a new low? utterly sh!te.

[PhoneymcRingRing]

We need at least 4 new signing in jan, we?re just gone stake and predictable

[Zippity]

Well-depending on Isak's injury, we may need to spend decent money on a striker.

We have players who have shown they can do it.

I?m sorry but I think it?s not the players and down to the training/game plan? if this carries on then we might see a new manager before new players.

Besides? even if we get 4 new players it?d be next Sept by the time Howe gives one of them a start.

that was not good enough against a bottom 3 team. Our passings ****e, and I’m sorry but Bruno is bang average,creates nothing going forward but relies on getting fouls to slow the game down,and he succeeds! Where was the “ press” we were sitting on the half way line allowing them to come on to us. Watching Weast ham v Arsenal and I’m thinking,Christ we got beat at home by this shower, losing 2- 5 to Arsenal, and that’s the difference between a top side and us, we’re nowhere near the likes of Arsenal, Lpoo! City. Don’t know where we go from here thev3 points might have dulled the pain but still not good enough. Bruno needs to be benched imo,sorry!

No need to be sorry mate, you were bang on. We've got a nearly full strength squad yet we pose no threat whatsoever, we've been found out, nobody fears us any more.

Well-depending on Isak's injury, we may need to spend decent money on a striker.

Yet despite having 2 strikers on the bench we instead played with Gordon upfront.

I don't get it.
