Proper good game this. Great goal by Palace, superb by Maupay for Brighton's goal.
This game really has had it all.

The one that got away.Welbeck is underrated, had he not been injury prone I reckon he could've led the line for a top team.
Petty AFI've developed an irrational dislike for Palace. I think it's because I tipped them for relegation pre-seeason so am determined to undermine them at every opportunity to justify my prediction.
So, with that said, they'll be nothing without Gallagher next season.
To be fair though, while tonight was a point for them as second best there have been a few times this season when they didn't get what they deserved.

True, but at least I recognise my deficiencies.Petty AF
Thought that was Arsenal for a second
I respect thatTrue, but at least I recognise my deficiencies.
I'll own that and be straight up honest.
So in the spirit of pettiness, you should be relegated nowI've developed an irrational dislike for Palace. I think it's because I tipped them for relegation pre-seeason so am determined to undermine them at every opportunity to justify my prediction.
They seem to be a bad omen to United as well. The only season where they’ve contested in the Premier League when United finished champions was in 1992/93. They’ve been down and up four times since then and you’ve never since won the league when they were in the top flight. It also transpires that their consolidation in the premier league was simultaneous with your longest title draught in this era (coming up in 2013/14 and not going down since).I've developed an irrational dislike for Palace.

I think they'll be fine if Eze is his old self next season. He was in the England 33 man squad for the Euros before his injury, really was playing well and with Gallagher gone he'll be free to attack as a #10. They spent smartly on Guehi and Anderson and Olise looks promising too, so I'd guess they'll do the same next summer and get a couple decent young starters in at RB and maybe a DM.I've developed an irrational dislike for Palace.

Maybe the wrong era for him? He's a good overall footballer for a striker so in a 4-4-2 might have had a better career supporting a pure goalscoring type.Welbeck is underrated, had he not been injury prone I reckon he could've led the line for a top team.
Have to give credit to the scouting departments at both these teams, some really technical players on both teams. And mostly quite young too.
Could still end up there. Realistically they probably need to replace Alba with 2 left backs.I really like Cucurella. He gets up and down all game and is so comfortable on the ball.
It’s hard to believe he never got a game for Barcelona. They could really do with him now.
Its the fact that he was allowed to go at all which probably is another example of all the mistakes Barcelona made under Bartomeu.Could still end up there. Realistically they probably need to replace Alba with 2 left backs.
The best thing there is, had he managed to chip the keeper, the defender would have had that covered easily.
He was frustrating in terms of finishing. He seemed to miss a lot of sitters and unfortunately never developed into the player we thought he might become.
Likely bs but wasn't Welbeck reportedly instructed not to lob Neuer , or do anything fancy atleast ?The best thing there is, had he managed to chip the keeper, the defender would have had that covered easily.
Yep. Was a ok player yet he generally saved his best form for England strangely enough.He was frustrating in terms of finishing. He seemed to miss a lot of sitters and unfortunately never developed into the player we thought he might become.
Are John Stones and Kepa the same person???
Thanks for dreading up a angry memory. WHY did he do that against one of the best keepers at that time. Just finesse it! And if it did go over, the other player would have kicked it away.
I was going to say this game is a dead rubber. But you're right, it's dead plastic.Plastics vs plastics. There is too much pollution already.
I doubt it. We have 2 free transfers starting plus a £7m, £23m, and £28m player starting. Plus Kante and Ziyech who cost around £30m each. Lukaku, Pulisic and Kepa obviously pull the average up, but I wouldn't imagine that team out there today would be anywhere near the most expensively assembled lineups in the league.Is this the game with the most expensive combined starting lineups ever? Average cost must be around £50m per player.
England's most exciting side of recent years was Kane with Welbeck and Sturridge either side of him. Shame they were both crocks.Likely bs but wasn't Welbeck reportedly instructed not to lob Neuer , or do anything fancy atleast ?
