ETH take a good, very good look at Fred and ask yourself do you want him to be a DM? And if the answer is Yes then change it to No.

Can someone explain why Palace have left so many of their first teamers back in England?
Many don't meet the requirements to enter the country. Probably unvaccinated. One or two recovering from injury.

This is another reason why a DM would help - Dalot likes to get forward and attack, a DM would cover him doing that more. Like City's Fullbacks / Fabinho with Trent

Nice turn from Malacia there.

Nice of the commentators to give us their stadium bucket lists here :drool:

My wit's end
From what I can figure out so far, Fred and Malacia are taking turns getting forward. When one of them moves up the pitch, the other drops back into defence to make it a back 3.

Both McTominay and Dalot are playing further up the pitch than usual.

I like how unpredictable we've been looking.

Yeah now would be a good time to worry for Shaw. This Malacia kid already seems to play with more tools.
