I’m far happier with a back three than with Lamptey at right-back. Lamptey on the right wing is fine, Lamptey at RB, no.

Get Enciso on the ball as much as possible and Joao more central to pounce on any keeper spillages.

It’s better but why didn’t we do this in the first half? Palace have all their men behind the ball now with that two goal lead. It is going to be very tough to score. Shows their game management and the lack of ours.

I can see now why Enciso hasn’t been playing (not)!

Better 2nd half so far, but I can't help but think 90% of the reason for it is palarse just sitting back.

JPVH had to cross it first time with his right foot there a la Nottingham Forest. Boots it out with his left.

Because he's doing what he normally does, comes on, playes well for a short period, then becomes a liability.

Our biggest problem is we can’t put a 90 minute performance together. Given ourselves too much to do

Despite the domination, we nearly conceded in the second half with a defensive capitulation

Need some older (louder) heads in the team. Missing Milner and Welbz a lot. Dunk not doing it as he should

Yup. The standard huffing and puffing for 15-20 mins without scoring.
