[Albion] Palace Fans Biggest Fear

You have to feel for them really.
Such a promising end of the season, when they played teams either going down or on the beach. It gave them all a false sense of optimism for this season, Top 6, European charge, but all that is left to brag about is they came above us by 1 point, and still couldn’t get higher than 10th and more than 50 points.

giving big wages to Kamada, Glasner's little pet, seems a mistake.
Wharton seems absolutely knackered. The formation isn't working, and he seems too stubborn to play a midfield 3, leaving them always chasing teams as most teams play a 3 against Palace's two

They got waaaay too overexcited with that lad Wharton. He does look a good player, but he desperately needs pace around him. He can pick a pass but he is very, very slow indeed

Baleba's going to walk through him.

I think you will be proven right. Wharton needs time, runners and passive defending from the front. Baleba is going to run him as much as possible

It’s truly hilarious that the palace muppets on here still think they’ve got a really strong squad 
- they are playing laughable football for most of the time (championship level at the very best) and look a total waste of space. The league table never lies, they’re in the relegation spot because they actually deserve to be there and long may it continue.

He is carrying a groin injury by all accounts and they don't feel able to rest him to get it sorted, given their predicament. So he is slow and getting subbed regularly. Bizarre.

surely they have a copious amount of talent just waiting for the opportunity to burst through, after all they have a better squad than us and their academy will have produced limitless world beaters.

if this is true its short termism of the highest order. All clubs do it and they are almost always caught out when an injury suddenly goes from minor to major and a player is out for months and months instead of weeks
They were ‘World Beating’ at picking the ball out of the net on Saturday.
Fingers crossed they promote some of those U21s. They looked dynamite against us on Saturday

Palace will improve, he just needs to ditch the 5 at the back.
He leaves himself with the problem of leaving out Chalobah or the new signing.. really he should leave the loaner out imo
But Palace have a very good starting 11 and will be absolutely fine.

They'll start picking up points eventually. They've lost games recently but havent actually been playing that badly. The loss to liverpool could have easily been 1-1. But another few defeats and Glasner's job could be on the line...
They’ve played 5 teams in the bottom half of the division.
They have 3 points.
By contrast,
We’ve played 4 of theBIG 6., we have 12 points.

Their loss to Liverpool could just as easily been by a greater margin. The draws against Chelsea and Man U were points gained rather than 2 points dropped as well.
They could be in trouble, guys. Let’s enjoy it rather than be negative.
It’s not as if they’ve got a talismanic player like Zaha or Olise coming back from injury to look forward to. This is their squad until Jan.

They are an injury to Eze away from being in the bottom 5 mix at the end of this season.
Wharton looks a good player but doesn't look fit. The rest are yard dogs.
I think Glasner is probably a good manager but much more of this and they will turn on him; Pards needs to be ready....
