Where's that Palace lineup that looked like an Olympic sprinting team against a team of fat boys off the beach on our game?
Back to standard today.

Sakho is a disgrace of a footballer. Genuinely embarrassing that clowns like that have made millions.

Moody Abraham. To be fair could have given him a chance, but goals are important.

What's up with Tammy though. If Jorginho's the designated penalty taker and he wants it, then that should be the end of the story.

If i am the manager, i would never ever ever allow this fighting for penalties or free kicks. First time when player would try that i would put him on the bench that second.

Honestly what are defenders doing at the moment? Why do they keep lunging into daft tackles in the penalty area?

Clear foul in the build-up for that second penalty. That’s what VAR is there for, right? It’s much more of a foul than the two fouls he gave penalties for.

Wed played 1 friendly when they had played 4 and 2 Competitive games too.

Wolves got battered 4-0 to Westham and City lost 5 - 2 at home. Do you think this is all coincidence?
Probably not but the same team is being hammered by a Chelsea team who hasn't really pulled up any trees.. just saying

They are doing nothing , Refs and Var are destroying it. A slight touch and Players fall like a Dolphin and then gets awarded a Penalty.

Players are doing this on purpose because they know that the slightest contact gives u a Penalty.

That, plus tactical error of giving Zaha too much of room on counters.

Just change the whole match concept to a penalty shootout. No fans, no controversy, no doubts.

Pep really hasnt revolutionised football though? The top table is vastly different than Peps way of playing.
It has evolved from Pep's tiki taka but there are certainly elements of Pep's football in most elite modern teams and even team's like Brighton.

We lost to Palace at home last season too.
They’re just one of those teams who are a nightmare for us because they defend deep and have quick attackers with good feet which mesmerise our plodding defenders.

They scored lucky goal, thanks to brain dead Sahko, after that it was easier for them, and CP kinda gave up after second goal. And they are playing Chelsea not us.
