Syd...if you wanna fully subsidise my trip to Fiji I'll take even longer than a month off!

Could Brentford beat Palace to be our main rivals now?

Don't be silly.

 

[jakarta]

Fulham and Liverpool both losing are BIG results...

 

[BN41Albion]

How many keepers did Brentford have today? Missed Websters aerial presence. Could Brentford beat Palace to be our main rivals now?

Eh!?

When was the last time that we went behind, three times in a match and came back to draw?
It was a fab game to watch, tbh, yet I was confident that we wouldn't lose.
As we all saw, we 'deserved' to win, but hey ho.....on to 'Muff and please God, give them a thrashing.
4 points from 6 keeps us well in contention for an incredible season.

Really hoping to see Toney banned, mouthy ****. Irritating club.

Any ban MUST start in August at the earliest.

None of this ‘serving’ it in close season bullsh1t.

 

[Ethelwulf]

To come behind 3 times against one of our main rivals for a European spot and score so late on is a point gained at the end of the day but we should have won that 3-0 . Dunk had a very rare off day shit happens but the main thing is we didn’t lose

 

[Triggaaar]

Our attacks have been frustratingly predictable, the same movements and passing structures every time. Needs a moment of magic

Can't have been that bad, we scored 3

 

[Weststander]

Thanks. Comments:

- Dunk’s positioning for their second
- Solly’s beautifully lofted cross for our second
- The pen. Look carefully at the movement of the arm, that was very deliberate handball. Should’ve been a red? Double jeopardy does count in that scenario.

Strange game of football that.

Our defence was pretty lacking. Their keeper had an incredible game. Six goals.

I don't think either team deserved to lose but neither deserved to win.

 

[SK1NT]

33 attempts on goal. The most of any premier league team this season.

 

[BN41Albion]

Can't have been that bad, we scored 3

Yep - a few very good saves from their keeper too. Defending was our downfall today, not attacking.

 

[Triggaaar]

That was ludicrous. Most shots we've ever had?
Massively overcomplicating things ATM, too many flicks slowing down the moves

How can we be over complicating things and slowing things down too much, if the result is that we've had the most shots ever?

lacking confidence in front of goal. Must've missed at least 3 or 4 sitters.

Yep, we did miss some chances I thought we should score - but then that reinforces the first point. We've scored 3 and could have scored a couple more, so how are we over complicating things?

 

[Mr deez]

Yeah that on obvious red card, 100% on purpose

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Just delighted we got that equaliser we deserved.

Entertaining game and decent point against a tough opponent.

 

[nicko31]

Very entertaining game. Sloppy at the back

I’ll take that

 

[BN41Albion]

Yeah that on obvious red card, 100% on purpose

Double jeopardy though ... or does that not exist anymore?! Who bloody knows - the managers don't even know the rules half the time

Our attacks have been frustratingly predictable, the same movements and passing structures every time. Needs a moment of magic

Our xG today was 3.8, which suggests our chance creation was just fine but with finishing a bit below par.

3.8 is our highest of the season so far by the way, including when we put 5 and 4 past Leicester and West Ham.

 

[nicko31]

33 attempts on goal. The most of any premier league team this season.

And nearly lost
