Of course there wasn’t much contact . But if you use your arms like that, you are asking for trouble.
Inexperience on lampteys part. He got succoured in by typical Palace tactics

Maybe asking for trouble, but still not anywhere near a foul IMO, or at least it shouldn't be considered so. It's incredibly lame.

No cutting edge, this game is unfortunately going to way I expected. It’s typical us, all the possession and shots without really doing anything and classic Palace, score a lucky penalty dive then put 15 players behind the ball.

Sussex, by the sea
Still havent seen Ryan dive the right way for a penalty

Pretty poor all round so far.

Bissouma looks ok

Riedewald Needs sorting out, far to strong in midfield for Palace, maybe Maupay cab get him.

I have said before here, that as much as I love Potters style and philosophy, we’re a bit too “nice”. No ones getting in the refs face, obviously that’s his style. No complaining, focus on your mistakes etc.

But it does make us very vulnerable to easy, convenient decisions by the officials. Hope I’m wrong.

This. We’re extremely soft.

Just not quick enough of speed or thought - always let them get back into their 2 banks of 4

Thats always been the story recently against them, we have a lot of the possession, and are about as menacing up front as a kitten knocking on a door.
We need to finish what was started from the back.
They get an innocuous penalty and they're heads are up.
We shy away.

I thought I saw Trossard name on the team sheet. Did he bother coming out of the tunnel.

Zaha complaining to the lino that he is making silly decisions. You couldn't make this stuff up.

Have you ever posted anything positive

Go back and check if it bothers you.

This has 2/3-0 Palace all over it. Sit back and soak up all we throw at em and nick em on the break. We run out of ideas when we hit opposition penalty box. Might be wise for Ryan to start practicing penalties aswell.

Oh yeah. Totally. But it’s one of those blame the game, not the player situations.
As soon as we didn’t score Early despite dominating, something like that was always going to happen.
Concede a goal, hard luck story.
Palace are streetwise, we are a bit green.
I fear for us now, as palace are good at stinking the place out once they’ve got a goal in the bank.

Missing Alzate badly, really not sure about White in midfield.

And Trossard has to get into the game, been anonymous.

March has been very good as per usual.
