March and Burn have offered us absolutely nothing of value so far, and Lamptey's looked bang average.

Usual form for us. Decent free kick gifted away and under pressure on break .
Soft pen aside we look utterly toothless. No cutting edge at all and no idea how to unpick a defensive side.
That they may be , but their defence has he measure of us.

Listen to me!!!
Poor so far. Possession means **** all if you have no clue in the final third

What are you expecting him to do, when he receives the ball there’s 11 Palace shirts in front of him, it’s hard to play through 3 banks that are all condensed into one half.
Where is the passion?
As usual loads of possession for what? The final third is shocking , haven’t tested the palace keeper at all .
Would really love to see Ryan at least dive the right way for a penalty.
Turning off the second half as it’s really really making me angry and do so glad I haven’t got a dog but the Mrs doesn’t like me after watching this dross .

Those patronising Brummie tones. Paid millions by Sky and the makers of FIFA for being depressing.

Forgetting the piss poor, game ruining referee, we've looked pathetic in front of goal yet again.
We boss the midfield and then there's nothing in the final third. Maupay looks dire today, trossard has been poor too. Can't see where our equaliser will come from.

Does that mean it is still 0....0 then?
There are many people around the country saying it was not a penalty, sadly the Ref and the idiot doing VAR today don't agree with them! we need to forget it and move on and score more goals than them, Best way to win a football game in my opinion

Not aided by being 1 down! Need something other than cross field balls to Lamptey (he can’t do everything) and March and Burn in the other side.

Very poor half. Maupay taking too many touches, notably poor ones, and I barely remember Trossard having one.
Burn and March struggling.
Changes desperately needed to snatch a draw here.

Need to do more with it but **** me there’s only one team playing football. They are just chucking everyone behind the ball and time wasting. Attwell and Friend (on VAR) their best players. They’ve not been near our goal! Absolutely shocking decision their guy backed in and dived.
That’s completely expected in this game. Nothing to shout about, it’s how this Palace team play.
What the **** is the point of VAR

I'm not sure I see the point in actually playing the games any more. Decisions are becoming increasingly nonsensical and the system brought in to create clarity is providing even more confusion.
Of course it wasn't a penalty. Yet here we are 1-0 down to the penalty.
In these times of covid where fans aren't allowed into the stadium and social distancing is a must maybe we should all save the bother and let the ref decide what he thinks the score should be? Or if you want an element of sporting tension and excitement the captains could do a best of three rock paper scissors over Zoom.
It makes as much sense as playing that first half.
**** sake.
