[Albion] Premier League 16-19/8/24

[Eric the meek]

It will be even more watchable if Cucurella reverts to the Chelsea version as opposed to the unplayable Spain one.


I liked it when the ball unwittingly bounced off his head and into the striker's path when he had no idea where it was. More of that sort of thing please.

He was great for us, great for Spain, but a headless chicken for Chelsea. I can't explain it.

While a lot is being made of Palace’s defensive frailties, ours is hardly looking watertight yet. The thought occurs that with them apparently renouncing their anti-football for a bit, our matches with them this season should be a pair of right old ding dongs.

We haven't conceded this season.

I wouldn't be averse to him having another shite season, Chelsea selling him for a massive loss and him turning up at another big club and looking class again.

Or Sanchez throwing one i in this game. Or Caicedo being sent off and missing a sitter.

Pep and Enzo are clones.

 

[tstanbur]

I see Chelsea’s way of dealing with the racist is to make him captain.

Can’t say I’m even surprised. #scum

Yeah, but that was against Everton.

Just seen the Eze freekick.

I can’t understand the problem, ref blew his whistle before the ball crossed the line, Hughes’s fouled Collins, correct decision. It might be frustrating for Palace fans,but, it’s not a goal. The ref blew immediately he saw the foul, if he had waited and the ball crossed the line before he blew, VAR would have ruled it out, anyway.

We’ve had far worse decisions, one of them being against Palace.

Is there an 'interfering with play' type rule in these kind of decisions? The Hughes foul has nothing to do with Eze's shot and goal. Would the goal have been disallowed if Palaces goalie at the other end of the pitch had pushed someone over?

Did the players kneel to take a stand against Fernandez

Like caciedo.... last 10 games of last season he was great for Chelsea unfortunately

On the balance of both probability and satisfaction gained, a huge Sanchez please!

If it happened between the ball being live (taking of the freekick) and going into the goal then yes.

Cucurella with a great view of Haaland's goal, there.

Colwill had a better one

 

[Quebec Seagull]

Colwill had a better one

Yeah, but the commentators have been pumping Cucurella's tyres all afternoon.

And Cucurella's much less likable than Colwill.

[Jeremiah]

Well that was a shock .. apparently palace are favourites to make Europe … how could they lose? With relative ease ….

Just got in, do you mean to say Palace didn't win at poor Brentford ?? but, but, but.. they have Eze, Wharton, Guehi, Mateta, Andersen and other world beaters. I bet Ivan Toney ran them ragged.

 

[Questions]

We’re top of the league and the title is ours to lose…………..COME ON !!!!!!

That Chelsea shirt is the most hideous thing I've seen since the Man City away Paisley shirt from a few seasons ago.

Even my cat has just puked watching the first 10 mins!

Not surprising that no one wants their name on the front.
