So we lost to Palace is anyone really surprised?....after all the hype of beating Manure when you look at that display it was pretty much the same as Yesterdays game with our team strolling around the pitch making the opposition look better than they were only this time instead of a win to paper over what was an average display we got beaten and El Pel has got to change his approach IMO.playing one striker upfront who gets isolated and so drops back looking for the ball sounds ohh so familiar to us....Lanzini clearly not fit yesterday my god noble spent most of the match trying to do his roll while the game just passed Lanzini by...Anderson again put in an average display and really needs his arse kicking...no good whining saying that they had everyone behind the ball you have to deal with it and playing slow predictable football with square balls and not getting behind them is not the way to do it...look at the movement for our goal it was quick snappy and they could not cope but soon as that went in we just reverted back to no pressure on the ball and so they settled and it was fairly predictable that what happened happened!......So El Pel pull your finger out and lets try and put another striker on the pitch to compliment Haller especially when playing this kind of opposition against better sides you can understand it but Palace and the like come on now.

That's exactly how I saw it, superb team build up for our goal & then we thought the game was won!

The guy is superb but with out a natural No10 feeding off him he is a voice in the wilderness. At times on Saturday Mark Noble was in this role which is totally confusing. The best guy for the job would be Chicharito ...ooopppsss, missed opportunity there!

Pel has to change quickly, especially at home. One up front... Allardyce back?

Anderson in my opinion is overated,he may do a decent cross now and again,but he easily loses the ball and I find him lazy.
