How did we play?

 

Alright, just couldn't break them down. Then eventually we did.

 

:lol: If that was 'alright' then you need your head testing.

 

How does "alright" go with "couldn't break them down" against Crystal Palace, anyway? Maybe if we were a League 1 team in a cup tie.

A goal was certainly never in script, and never from Cisse.

 

:lol:

 

It was tbh, one had to go in sometime.

 

Have to agree, he obviously wasn't finishing well but when he gets 5 or so chances he must put one in eventually.

 

He's the only one who's likely to get in scoring positions as well. The rest of them treat the penalty area like vampires avoid church.

Am I the only one who thinks most of Cisse's chances were good saves from Speroni rather than bad from him (the miss before the goal excluded)?

They were all difficult apart from the one before the goal

He's had far more than 5 chances this season in the league, and this is the first time he scores.  :lol:

 

Very glad he's done it, can only hope that this means his head picks up a bit and he goes on to pick a few more before it ends.

All were straight on the goalkeeper(except the goal)

Decent saves for the most part but he should really be looking to put at least one of those away.  The header from Ben Arfa's cross at the near post should have been in too.

Dominated possession, but couldn't break them down at all. Looked a lot better with HBA on. Still shitty performance against a poor Crystal Palace.

 

I didn't see the match or anything, but don't Palace give you the possession?

Can anyone describe the goal? Cheers.

 

Hatem cuts inside, everyone thinks he's going to shoot, he actually shapes the ball onto Cisse's bonce on the edge of the six yard box. He heads it in.

 

Thanks. Sounds like a nice goal.

93.30 or so on the clock. Ben Arfa carries the ball on the right hand side of the field, cuts inside, flights an inswinging ball towards the back post and Cisse hammers it in with his head just in front of and to the left of the penalty spot.
