Pretty much the same team we battered twice and you fluked results against you mean?..... I have added a bit of realism in there for you.

Zaha & Eze will thrive in a more patient system. Eze's game has never been about pace; they're both proper footballers, not just kick and rush merchants.
I think you're massively underestimating the money we've got to spend, and I hope that we'll prove that in the near future. If you were somehow correct then we'd be absolutely wasting our time talking about Edouard and Andersen at the moment
9 wins last season for you, 12 wins for us
16th position for you, 14th for us
1 point from 6 home and away for you, 4 for us
All flukes though!

He'd certainly be a huge loss in Roy's system. He looked excellent at times last year, even at his age. Apparently Vieira has played quite a high line in the past though, which would have left Cahill hopelessly exposed by any forward under 30 with two functioning legs. I would have been delighted to see him sign a new deal as a mentor for Guehi, but if his reported wage demands are accurate then I can see why he's moving on.

Oh, come off it. Palace turned up with a gameplan to soak up pressure and hit you on the break, and did exactly that. It wasn't pretty, it wasn't enjoyable to watch, but it was a perfectly executed gameplan.
You didn't deserve a win because you couldn't break us down, and you were so busy pressing forward for a winner to complete the "battering" that you forgot to defend!
This made me chuckle, the majority of those 'internationals' have barely played in the last 4-5 years. Clyne and Butland ffs?

Butland made last WC squad
So did Danny Welbeck, and Lallana was on the standby list. but I don't see any Albion fans inferring they are current internationals, you clown
As third choice, congratulations.
can't argue with that.

Oh I don't doubt you'll find the money from somewhere, you have no choice but to.
But at some point you will have to cover the costs of the spending you have been forced to make.
It's amazing how easy they can 'win' the argument when they stick to the facts.
Yet instead they roll into town championing Jeffrey Schlupp's international 'career'

Clowns.
So answer my question before you have to start your holiday homework.
On what basis did you arrive at the conclusion that "Guehi is better than Veltman". Where's your facts that you are so keen on?
You wont get away with making crap statements like that on here without backing them up.
Oh come on.. We absolutely battered you....

Yep!
all of this.
All of us experienced Albion watchers were screaming at the screen to just hack Townsend down and settle for the draw.
But no, the young inexperienced team let him play and the rest is history.
We still have so much to learn about game management.
Very naive at times last season.

Yes, play that match 10 times and 9 of them it's an Albion victory.
Unbelievable luck for them to get the win. Can't dress it up as a game plan.

Mate I know you must be trolling! Even you can't seriously big up your team by claiming they are all internationals therefore somehow by association this means they are great players.
Clyne last played and international 5 yrs ago
Zaha has played 3 times in 2yrs for Ivory Coast
Milivojovic no caps since 2020 when he got 2
MacArthur see above and Scotchland! Really!!!
Riedewald not an international
Kouyate an aging international for those footballing giants Senegal
Benteke a valid current international but well past his prime
Ayew see above
Schlupp & Butland no caps for year's and won't get any more
Guehi & Eze no international caps.
I could do a similar analysis for us but it would embarrass you even further. You have a team of largely aging journeymen and raw kids, you should be really concerned but seem blissfully unaware.
:FFS people have you all taken stupid-poopid pills.
On what basis are you making that statement, because it sure as hell isn't last season's form, the last 5 years of form, my entire lifetime of form.
Play that game 10 times and palace would win 11 of them.
That's just the way the world works.
palace get a 4 point lead and our season is over.
That's just the way the world works.
Comprehensively do they double over them, palace beat us in the FA Cup final.
That's just the way the world works.
