Merson just expressed astonishment that Chelsea had only 68% possession, saying that it must have been 75% at least. He said that they must have counted the time Palace took to take the ball back to the centre circle in their posession stats. Schedenfreude is one of my favourite freudes.

Doesn't sound right.

I understood Viera was going to get them playing a possession based expansive brand of football
Exciting times for Palace, as I understand it.

Finding that woman commentator's over-analysis quite annoying during ManU-Leeds game. Just saying words for the sake of saying words mostly

are you ever guilty of that, tommy?

she is getting paid, and knows her stuff, whereas you.....................

1-0 Newcastle, Wilson goal made by St Maximin, he is a joy to watch when on song

Yeah, that was a poor effort. After all these months, I thought a proper game would be a big draw irrespective of the opposition.

When I used to go there years ago it felt like a nice club. Drinking at the cricket ground, general nice atmosphere. I dunno, given what a celebration it should’ve been it felt really bleak and hostile to me yesterday. Feels like a place down on its luck with a bitter and angry fan base.

So good to have the crowds back, the sense of urgency from players has returned!

Two clubs with not much change in personnel. I expect them to perform less well than last season. Fans of both will get pissy.

Oh the waistcoatwanker is there.

ASM is exactly what we need on our right wing, quality player. Great game so far this.. Lots of goals from crosses in first match week.

Definitely gonna try and get to St James this season. Amazing place.

Really disappointing atmosphere though often, especially considering the numbers there. Even today, first game and first back with fans, it's hardly been electric. Good game too. Could hear the hammers fans singing '1-0 and you still don't sing'

It's like he was auditioning for Strictly Come Dancing there.
