    Looking back on all our games since December the whole team is playing like there already on the beach…… Perhaps there looking forward to some winter sun.
    No urgency No creativity just lovely sideways football. Players look so lethargic.
    Neto instead of Sancho, move Palmer to the Right and play Nkunku as a 10…… Just try something different…..
    Madueke and Sancho don’t have any end product.

    Has to be Neto up top for me. It's just suicide sticking Nkunku up there given he doesn't press or drag defenders.

    Maybe Mheuka as an option off the bench.

    Took the commentators just over a minute to mention Chalobah's goal for Palace at the Amex. Glorious fayre.

    Don't wanna take anything away from that from Mitoma, but awful goalkeeping again.

    Unbelievable touch. Arguably goal of the season so far?

    I think you can forgive Chalobah, because of that first touch, and then quick change of direction, which he wouldn't have anticipated.

    This match has been a fun watch. Not high on chances but both are looking to press and both are figuring out how to play through (or over) the press. Makes for a skittish contest with forced errors.

    I’m going to curse it because they’ve always got a mistake in them, but Webster & Lamptey have been great so far. Think a lot of our fans thought they were finished here but they’ve done well.
