JeffJ Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Meh. Comfortable for Palace. We ran out of ideas after 55 minutes, no guile or creativity. Stopped getting the ball to Wilson and they just shut us down. As with the last 3 seasons, the central midfield options are fucking rancid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 They weren’t great first half, but, this second half has been abysmal. The game management was shocking, you’re getting beat and yet no urgency whatsoever getting the ball forward. Playing pass ball between the back four and the midfield is fucking woeful. You can’t keep getting beat off teams at home in the bottom half. #BRUCEOUT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 It's a miracle we didn't lose by more tbh. The subs were hilarious tbh. That miss by Townsend. :lol: Most enjoyable part Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Fair play to them I suppose. They were really solid second half and as Disco said, managed the game almost perfectly. If only one of those Fraser chances had gone in... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I’m disappointed but more so because we should have got something from that. We missed a ton of sitters and didn’t deserve to lose that. It was slow in the second half but the subs really took our shape away and even then Carroll should have grabbed us something at the end. If we can keep playing like this we should stay up. At what point should we have got something? We did alright for the first 10 minutes. We let them back into the game, they nearly had the game out of reach within 7 minutes. The rest of the game we passed it across our back four and did f*** all. We got exactly what we deserved, absolutely f*** all. Fraser missed a couple, Schar had a free header and a half chance, ASM was unlucky, Carroll should have scored. Palace had two decent chances before the final minute and scored from both then defended. Think you’re slightly exaggerating the fuck all there mate.

We had a few free headers, that was all. The majority of them were in the 1st half and the majority of them were when we were a goal up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 If Rafa had us turn in that Palace performance and result we'd rightfully be praising a very good, professional away win. We were lost of ideas from about the 60th minute as they were too organised for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I’d have them in the training ground and fine every fucking player every time they pass it back to the keeper. If I was Darlow I’d just let the fucking ball go out for a corner at this point. Just no fucking need for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 They played well second half, but we didn’t exactly make them. The substitutions were bizarre and made us lose any momentum we could gain. Rubbish game management from Bruce, yet again. Interesting that Jones was in the stands. He was very vocal in the first game on the touchline, why send him upstairs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 His plan of just throwing strikers on, man. Can someone tell him to fucking stop? Crucially this idiotic, thick as whale spunk behaviour means he can interrupt the poor bird interviewing him after and say "Well you know wuh've wanted to get higher up the pitch for a while now and wuh've worked on it and wuh threw everything at them today and wuh had all wuh strikers bashing away but it just wasn't to be, that's football" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 them postives though. What ones? A thunder bastard from Shelvey after his 1,000th attempt? Those missed chances? The 70 minutes of passing across the back four and to Darlow which gives us a false perspective of ‘controlling the game’ via possession stats?

Dr Jinx Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Yep, am disappointed but it was a different sort of loss. Lost concentration for a few minutes in the first half, couple of mistakes and got punished each time. As soon as they got their second they parked the bus. We nearly had too much possession of the ball. Never like losing but it wasn’t as pathetic as some of the previous ones Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 At least in that game we actually had plenty of excellent chances still and if it hadn’t been for Crossley would have been about 8-4. We had a few decent chances tonight but when we threw the strikers on we were relying on pot shots from outside the box before the Carroll header.
