[Albion] Premier League 30/11 - 2/12

[Motogull]

Ha ha.

Tears in the dressing room.

 

[Mackenzie]

Zaha looks a bit slow these days doesn’t he.

 

[Wardy's twin]

shit- would have preferred Leeds to lose - want them relegated.

 

[Sue1983]

Happy that Palace lost, unhappy that Leeds won. I was hoping for a draw.

 

[Jeremiah]

Commentators saying that that was only Leeds second home win of the season - their home record is identical to ours !

We really need a win for somewhere to keep that gap between us and the bottom three - Southampton maybe ?

 

[Mike Small]

Definitely. Just stand up against him and he's got very little. Still, I'm sure he'll be itching for a move to a mega club come the summer. Yawn yawn.

 

[Simster]

I thought Daniel James was absolutely gash. So glad he's at Leeds , I hope they spent a lot signing him - he is an absolute pound shop, oh erm I dunno, Raheem Sterling

But apart from that, if Leeds must beat someone then why not Palace in injury time with a bitterly unlucky penalty? Chortle.

 

[Washie]

Leeds now only 3 points behind us. Also, Newcastle now 6 points from safety.

 

[Wozza]

Talk of him signing a new contract. Was an Arsenal fan growing up, so loves Vieira.

 

[Bold Seagull]

So within a week NSC had Palace as the progressive attacking form team and Leeds as the worse team in the league. Talking shite as always!!

And the funny thing is the ‘messiah’ spent 3 years trying to sign him [emoji23]

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery…Ali J

Palace are also imitating us from last year on the field, losing games and points late on in games that they should have won

The Trolls are all back under their mossy stones too.

Did you watch any of it? I only watched the second half, after the Newcastle game finished, but from what I saw Palace WERE pretty ‘progressive and attacking’, and Leeds WERE absolute gash. The ultimate result doesn’t automatically change any of that

I thought Crystal Palace were quite clearly the second least worst team in the game until Edouard went off in the 68th. After that I can agree they did quite well.

I watched the full 90+7.

On the balance of play Palace deserved to win that and would have done if Benteke hadn’t headed wide from 3 yards out after he replaced Edouard (utterly ineffective). Leeds sought to break up play with countless fouls and looked tired as the game went past 70 minutes. It is a measure of how poor Leeds were that their last minute penalty was their first meaningful effort on target all game.

I know Bielsa prefers a small squad apparently but they desperately need Bamford and Ayling back to make that side work. Palace, on the other hand, looked pretty tidy but lots of misplaced passes and unforced errors from both sides to be honest. But yes - it would be a mistake to look at the result and believe that reflected the game.

But, in comparison to how we dealt with Leeds where a 3-0 or 4-0 would have seemed perfectly reasonable if we had players who could shoot; Palace deserved perhaps a 1-0, they did not dominate Leeds anything like we did but for some bizarre reason, attempted to copy our finishing prowess.

Yup. Quite how Leeds have managed to accumulate 4 points from their last 2 fixtures is a travesty based on their utter gashness, but probably a reflection on the inability of their opponents to convert some of the best chances they’ll get all season rather than them. I bet they can’t believe their luck.

The point being Hans, that form etc is no indicator of who does or doesn’t win in this league. Palace were good and lost. Leeds were poor and won. We were excellent and drew. It’s football.

25m apparently! What’s even more funny is that they spent 15m on Firpo, whom Lamptey had on toast for 65 mins on Saturday evening.

Yes he was poor. Leeds manager gets stick for playing players out of position and James is one. Can cause havoc as a winger. So pleased he played down the middle against us where he was very poor
