[Football] Fat Pat

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

They are a shambles but bigger shambles below them sadly.

They were poor yesterday. And of course we made them look worse as they chased shadows. Makes dropping two points all the more galling

TBF palace have played, man united x 2, Chelsea away, Newcastle, Spurs and Brighton not an easy ask, to get 3 points is probably not a bad return….although they were utter gash today.

Not the best of defences when you still have another 6 consecutive matches against teams above palace.


palace will be fine, they're basically copying our template.
Get enough points to never really be in trouble but not enough points to be relaxed about it.

No win all calendar year for the scum. Must be on borrowed time

According to the Sunset Times, no Home wins since October!

On the stream I watched I thought they looked like a team of Vieira's but without any of the talent, i.e a bunch of units who ran around but couldn't string more than a couple of passes together. The only time they looked remotely competitive in the game was the opening 10 minutes when their hard charging made the game a bit kick and rush and chaotic. Once it settled down into a football game it was almost embarrassing how bad they were.

If that's how they play regularly then unless he&s working on a shoestring budget his job will surely be up for review come the end of the season.

Yesterday was tough but kind of what I was expecting although would have liked a bit more commitment from some of our players. Thought Hughes was outstanding until he went off. Was impressed with BHA apart from the finishing. We had one shot on target which was the goal
Couple of thoughts, horror tackle by Mac Allister early on which only got a yellow and
Why did you let it bounce
We genuinely got away with one

On the Mac tackle, I was worried when they slowed it down. It looked nasty then. Don’t think there was any intent there though. It’s such a lottery with those tackles though, as Fabinho on Ferguson showed.

MacAllister's tackle was no worse than Doucoure's on Estupinan, which also got a yellow.

Looks much worse in slow mo/freeze frame than it does in real time.

Got a yellow, which it deserved.

Agreed. I was just a bit worried because decisions are often made on how bad it looks when slowed down to nth degree.

To be fair to the poor guy he has a bang average squad and did very well to fluke a point against a top 6 team. We used to be pleased to get anything from Arsenal or Man City in the old days.

 

[Skaville]

Doubt they’ll go down. Zaha & Anderson to come back, they’ve a decent keeper. There’s definitely 3 worse teams than them

Southampton for sure, but the other teams down the bottom all seem capable of putting together a run.

I have just looked at your next 6 games and I am not sure where you will pick up your next points, which would put you right in the relegation mix for the run in

I hope they don't sack him.
