Chris Young from the "Ehco"

he still had options on the bench to add something to the deteriorating situation it was going wrong before anita got injured but he could have done plenty of other things with his subs anita off wijnaldum deeper, perez on, obertan off, aarons on, cisse off mitro on there's plenty of other things he could have done tbh, if wijnaldum was in tatters then drop sissoko back with colback and shuffle the pack to get some pace, youth and technique in there de jong on was a horrible f***ing substitution to make tbh he needs minutes in this league though, how else is he going to get them? There'll be plenty more chances to give him games. We were dead on our feet and desperately needed an infusion of pace, not a player who immediately looked more wrecked than the guy he replaced. It was an awful sub, no two ways about it. which way would you have gone? (genuinely interested to know opinions btw, not looking for a scrap). We had a lead to protect and build on, and evidently fell back defending. We needed pace - pace to attack and to relieve pressure. Aarons and/or Aoyze was the obvious subs. Siem became nothing but a passenger. Even if he does need time on the pitch - this wasn't the game for it. it was 2-2 when he came on. We needed the subs before that. The point doesn't change though. The completely wrong guy to turn to. He got nothing out of it, and more importantly our team continued to struggle for it.

This is one of my main gripes with today. Trying not to put too much in to it yet, but they're just miles above Obertan.

49, and done. Bah.

He was hyped and ready to get going. All good.

Love him.

I thought he was typically pitiful aside from that admittedly brilliant cross. I meant Colback. I thought he was typically pitiful aside from that admittedly brilliant block. I hate Colback but he did some important defensive work in the end. Wasn't only that block.

I thought he was typically pitiful aside from that admittedly brilliant cross. I meant Colback.

Awful end to what was a promising game. Not using Aarons and/or Ayoze in the end here is criminal. Siem a total and utter passenger in that hoofing stuff. Colback had a great game, so fair play to him.

Is Haidara completely knackered? So slow to react.

Aarons and Perez not playing. Hopeless. Especially harsh on Perez.

Long for fucks sake just die.

Cisse needs to go off now.

Nah. Yes.

Fair play Obertan Wijnaldum is a lovely lovely player.

Come on, that's hardly the first time we've seen that from Cissé. He is often a frustrating player. Was on about Haidara. Oh

Come on, that's hardly the first time we've seen that from Cissé. He is often a frustrating player.

Cisse scores goals, but he also does shit like that which is really fucking annoying.

Wants to play further forward seemingly.

Think it's all about pace to be honest. Must think he can do what every other c*** has failed to. Make him a Premier League footballer.

Some good decisons regarding our team today. Incorporating this weirdo - not so much. McClaren should have him sussed before he came here.

Who the f***ing hell says we're surprised??? If you're not surprised why the meltdown reaction? Jeez. Even if it's not a surprise, you still react when the manager makes poor decisions.

What if Pardew is actually good, our players were just s**** You know where the door is son. What if Palace actually do get top 6? They won't Doubt anyone thought we'd get 5th with Pardew as manager. They might (even if it is 1% chance). Then what? I'm trying to be deadly serious by the way. I have no idea how I'd react. It's not going to happen Absolutely no chance.
