    Three players all through our defence together. Lucky they got in each others way...
     
    Very lucky there. How can they open us up with ease and we can't do shit to them.

    Nearly two for Palace. The visitors burst into our box for probably only the second time in the match and the ball falls to Zaha and De Gea has to smother the shot.

    Zero creativity. In this situation with so little strength on the pitch let alone in depth what are we doing paying to let Sanchez play somewhere else.

    Totally lame show. Let Sanchez loose in the Lingard role. Whatever role he is playing.
     
    This team is screaming out for someone creative. How Lingard is a starter is beyond me. We are too defensively set up at home to fecking Palace and now we just conceded. Fecking great.

    Seems our only midfield target was Sean "Longstaff" Longstaff and when Newcastle didn't want to sell him we just threw our arms in the air and said "oh well we tried".
     
    Our attack is so blunt. Teams aren't scared of leaving their defense exposed against us.
     
    We've lost our shape. I don't think Palace are working that hard to pull the players out of position, it's just our players are not sticking to their roles.
     
    Smalling is a better partner for slab head. Lindelof And Maguire are a slow partnership
     
    Losing to a CP team that offered absolutely nothing against Sheff Utd last week. And Ashley fecking Young....Jesus wept.
     
    Lindelof lost header but 80 mil defender should anticipate that. Bad defending from both of them.
     
    That was a really soft goal. There was a lot of miscommunication between Maguire and Lindelof - I think it was Maguire pointed back at the keeper as if to say "head it backwards" but then he never went to cover it - when the Ayew did. Really basic stuff.

    Yellow card for Crystal Palace

    Palace then win a corner but we clear it and break up the pitch with Lingard. Milivojevic fouls him and goes in the book.
    We always seems to defend like a group of primary school children....all surround the ball and ignore any off the ball movement
     
    Maguire needs to show what he's made of here, he's meant to be our leader at the back isn't he?
     
    We know Ole can counter-attack. That's all he seemingly can do. Let's see if he can adapt and break down a team who should be happy to leave with a 0-1. However, theyre currently out-classing us and it's embarrassing.
     
    Seems like Ole is only teaching them what to do off the ball not with the ball. They press but that's all they do, maybe that's why he likes Lingard so much. We have absolutely nothing going forward. Our defender look as bad as last year and this is Palace.
