Affordable tickets aren't a thing anymore. Doesn't matter if it's SJP or a new ground ticket prices are only going up.

Sounds too good to be true, what's the catch

When your dealing with Italian clubs it sure is.

The difference in defensive contribution alone is massive. We started to struggle defensively once Murphy tired. Given this you can really see why we haven't replaced him as quickly as some might like. Sure we can find someone with more quality but can the output be matched? Particularly defensively.

It's all Chelsea at Selhurst.

Spurs hard done by according to Ange. All things being equal they would have won. Obviously doesn't do stats either.

Not sure what was up with him but he looked like he was running in treacle to me.

They created absolutely nothing once we brought those subs on. That should have been far more comfortable but I'm delighted none the less.

Eddie what are you doing get more fresh legs on FFS.

Need to get Murphy off now he can't track back. Poor game management from us this.

Diving has commenced. How is that a free kick but Gordon's not a pen?

Time for subs Eddie.

What is var doing ? Shoulder charge to face.

He's an elite one Vs one defender. We just need to get his confidence back when he has the ball as he isnt showing what he's capable of.

We've done well really happy our heads didn't drop after conceding so early. Bruno just runs the show from that 8 position spurs causing themselves all kind of problems giving him so much spade.

Poor all around tbh big joe presses without any support

Looking forward to this lets smash em.

He doesn't know anything.

Psr hasn't made the league more competitive at all, it's only caused the existing elite clubs to be protected. Of course season like this will happen whereby one of them takes a stumble for overall when plotted out over a longer period then amount spent/allowed to be spent correlates nicely with where you finish. Our owners are aware of this as displayed in the Amazon documentary. Most teams prefer restrained competition to a large transfer market, ultimately it's not everyday you have a Declan rice but weather you have him or not your still getting TV money. Clubs like Palace are looking over their shoulders last thing they want is a oligarch taking over a championship club and increasing competition for them. The top league in the world is a pure marketing issue, it has very little to do with quality, the premier league has maintained this status without having the best players and whilst these rules exist.

Precisely I know instinctively it feels as though it should but in reality it simple isn't the case. The decision makers are the owners who are absolutely love the current arrangements. We need a remarkable down turn in the fortunes of the cartel clubs to see this loosened further and even then it would be remarkably stupid of then to do so.

Puts pressure on who?

We tried to buy DCL in the summer but couldn't get it done due to his wage demands.

50m where do they dream up these fees.

Frogman please stop spamming this thread with talk of inferior players such as Hojlund.
