HawK

Even more mental that he got man of the match the other night. I thought he was very average. But he's had an excellent season and therefore deserves an International call up. Should have been Kante by a mile.

Mitrovic doesn't deserve a starting place at the minute as he's bringing nothing to our game. When the ball is lumped up to him it bounces off his chest and heads back towards our own goal. He never seems able to try and turn his markers because he's nowhere near the ball after its bounced off him. You can say that we've made few chances for him but he can make his own chances, or not in his case because he's not clever or quick enough. I would love to defend against him because he does most of the defenders work for them by offering very little. Totally, totally disagree with that. If anything, his hold up play has been the strongest part of his game. He doesn't look frettinin enough at the moment, Pardew would drop him for Kuqi His hold up play has been his strongest part but that in itself is still nowhere near good enough for a striker that has no pace. He may improve but after 6 months into the season he hasn't improved one iota despite being offered lots of game time.

I think Cisse has to start if fit, he's a pure poacher, and now with the way we're playing we might see the ball in the box a bit more often. Why are all our strikers so bad

As if a genuine reporter has not researched this properly. We've been in negative net spend cumulatively for over 6 years until this January, including the purchases of those players, and without a drop of investment from the owner or using the TV money to purchase players. Bringing spending back to sanity would have meant we'd have bought double the players we did or at least better ones.

Pearce did a job for us tbf, I liked him as a player on our team.

Sounds like a 2 up top solution then. But we got Rafa so nevermind

And how to hold the ball up And how to win free kicks

Like I said before these chaps need to contact the Palace fans

No, we've got to write him off because he's young, inexperienced and not looking world class whilst playing alongside Steven Taylor.

Don't recall many at all to be honest, kept it simple most of the time and won the ball back himself more than any other player today.

Doumbia got the akiZ virus I think.

Kante MOTM

Common Papa Doumbia!

Has offered nothing, running down blind alleys except the one cross for Mitro. Watching a different game? Watching every minute.

Need Mitro on for Doumbia to flourish imo. Doumbia for Perez imo now

Best RW in the league vs the worst LB.

RM/RW of the 3

If Leicester win the league, will it be the first time a father and son have both won the PL?

The Dutch Kevin Nolan. Want to see SDJ on for him sooner rather than later we need someone who can receive and make a pass in their half. That's a terrible comparison man. SDJ is arguably closer to being the Dutch Nolan than Wijnaldum. SDJ has made more passes in the opposition half in the 3 minutes he's played this season than Wij from the matches I've seen, and I've watched pretty much all of them. Nolan can't pass in the opposition half? Jesus have u ever seen us play? lol

Going to concede after all our good play, then we'll know how much Rafa has had an effect tbh.

Jesus Christ we're actually trying. I know it's the first 5 mins of Benitez, but there was 6 up near the box on that last attack. What a difference.
