[Albion] Glenn Murray

[Gazwag]

Glenn needs to go to Russia

Not sure he still has his passport

Did Palace not discard him in favour of much more expensive and less effective players? Of have I imagined that?

They did but Bournemouth lent him to us and so it was not a direct move. I understand what you are saying , Palace fans are saying similar.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

They did. Parish/Pardew put all their striking faith in Benteke and Wickham, ditching Gayle and Murray.

Utter, utter clowns.

Not sure where absolute age matters, it depends on how fit he remains and today's effort was brilliant, even when knackered he managed to beat their defenders by playing to his strengths rather than trying to be a hero. Brighton need to keep him next year even if it is to come on at end of games to play out time. He is also great in defence.

Putting my hands up- i'm amazed how well he is doing. What a lad.

Great mini interview on Sky with Muzza post match. They asked why he's seemingly not fazed by playing against PL defenders at his age. He simply said "the last time I looked, the goals hadn't moved". He has a natural confidence in his proven striking abilities.

Lovely cross by Pascal yet again

Absolutely shocking from Mustafi there with the Nazi salute. Bloomin Germans

 

[Machiavelli]

I swear that Murray wasn't as quick at withdean as he has been the last few matches

He's deceptively quick.

Murray is the complete centre forward. He has natural ability and footballing intelligence that you can't teach - you either have it or you don't.

He was BRILLIANT today, absolutely brilliant. Not only the goal, but the runs he made, his work-rate, the two crucial clearances (he would make a great centre back too), the oh-so-clever trademark free kick wins and he looks fitter than i've ever seen him.

If he keeps this up, he's a lively wild card for the England's World Cup squad.

Yep. Just watched a re-run of the game and he was the best player on the pitch. Outstanding Glenn

I loved that bit at the end, around 90+6, where we had the ball on half way and could’ve countered, and he just turned his back and let the Arsenal player clatter into him. Buying us a precious free kick. Loved it.

This. A really intelligent piece of play. What a guy!

My god it is absolutely littered with Albion players across all the positive sections.

Fear not though palace you do have one second place:-

2. Christian Benteke - 18...






...Big Chances Missed.

They'll all be along in a minute, to defend their team.

At 1,000/1, free money

Never underestimate the skill of winning free kicks. Ulloa won a vital one just after Knockaert's clearance off the line at Stoke which relieved the pressure very nicely.

They are also second for most penalties awarded. I wonder why.

Milojevic could also have been top for penalties scored if Benteke hadn't have insisted that he was the right man for the job against Bournemouth; With hilarious results. (Guest starring Mollie Sugden as Roy Hodgson and Danny John Jules as Dwayne Dibley)
