[gavin]

Ederson, Lewis, Dias, Gvardiol, O'Reilly, Nico, Kovacic, Gundogan, De Bruyne (C), McAtee, Marmoush

Subs: Ortega, Grealish, Doku, Bernardo, Reis, Savinho, Nunes, Khusanov, Bobb

McAtee starts at last

[reddishblue]

No pace out wide again.

[Swiss]

Yeah, the back and CM looks ok, but that's a weird front 4

[Stephen Paul]

No pace out wide again.

Yep , weird

[Stephen Paul]

caught flat at the back , so poor

[Hesperus]

This is a joke.

[Hesperus]

We're dying a lingering death here.

[Stephen Paul]

Marmoushhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Stephen Paul]

KDB running the show , outstanding

[gavin]

What a mixed bag that was. Abysmal at the back again but at least eventually we got going.

It should have been a penalty on Marmoush. Where do they dig these useless bastards officials up from?

[Hesperus]

Kev is giving it he all alright. Played much better after their 3rd got ruled offside.

[Stephen Paul]

Commentators have gone extremely quiet   

[Swiss]

Love a roller coaster. Thank feck for Kev cause that was going sour fast and we're already reliant on others fecking up

[Stephen Paul]

superb second half , old school

[gavin]

That should be a real confidence booster, especially if we go behind in other matches.

[Stephen Paul]

Palace were unbeaten away from home in their last 10 outings until yesterday

[Hesperus]

Palace were unbeaten away from home in their last 10 outings until yesterday

Yes I read that stat before the game so that was a very good result in the end.
