Administrator Stan 18,380 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted December 31, 2017 Didn't think it was a penalty anyway! Zaha goes down at the slightest of contact by Sterling, who probably would have done the same as well. Puncheon cleaning out De Bruyne was disgusting.

Administrator Stan 18,380 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted December 31, 2017 don't you just love irony in football? Palace, after going 7 games without a goal or a win at the start of the season are the first team in the league to stop Man City scoring and to stop their winning run. Fosu-Mensah with a fully deserved man of the match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,380 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted December 31, 2017 Wonder if Puncheon will get any punishment after the game for that tackle of De Bruyne. Clearly gone to injure the player and wasn't even close to being just a 'late' tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted December 31, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted December 31, 2017 5 hours ago, Stan said: better midfielders would help. Iborra is class and fine but Ndidi also has a lot to learn. He's still very young though so it's not that I'm putting the blame on him. When you have a defender who is comfortable on the ball though, any good opposing manager will instruct his forwards to press on him. His defending for the 2nd goal is shambolic though. Salah may be strong but you're a 6ft 5/6 defender up against a player like Salah (not to the Egyptian's discredit), but you shouldn't be able to be turned so easily. Gotta use your strength to hold him up. best thing about Maguire is his presence at offensive set pieces. Already got a good amount of goals and assists since the start of the season. Iborra isn't mobile enough to play in a midfield two. I still think Puel's idealistic scenario sees us play three in midfield but we just haven't got the bodies. Our midfield: Iborra Ndidi James King Amartey Choudhury So you've got Iborra like I say hasn't got the mobility, Ndidi who is like you say good, but with a bit to learn, James who just isn't fully fit, King who isn't good enough, Amartey who isn't really good enough and is being used more in defence, and Choudhury who has played about 10 minutes of senior football in his career. That just isn't a midfield you can rotate over this set of fixtures. We haven't got the players to do it. Once again congratulations to our recruitment team who sold Drinkwater and fucked up getting his replacement in on time. I think we've largely got away with that so far but now we're really paying for it. While Puel's made errors (those subs yesterday, bemusing) the squad clearly isn't fit for his purpose.

While Puel's made errors (those subs yesterday, bemusing) the squad clearly isn't fit for his purpose. if Silva comes in and performs well, I think we'll see the 3 in midfield and 2 wingers with Vardy up front. We'll be sacrificing Okazaki but at least we'll have some composure and good experience in midfield. You'll probably see Iborra sitting deep which is what he does now anyway. Ndidi just ahead and then Silva linking up with the wingers and Vardy. The good thing with our wingers is that they generally track back well (something underestimated in Mahrez). Albrighton has an absolute engine on him. That game against Utd he played right wing, left wing, central midfield and then ultimately right-back and getting an assist in from the left .

HK85 267 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 He had United, Liverpool and Spurs in mind but that was a woeful lineup from Sam. Three defensive minded midfielders against Bournemouth. And one of them McCarthy who is absolutely shite. Feel sorry for Calvert-Lewin, he has obvious limitations but the lad grafts all the time he's on and there's no one within 10 yards of him at times. Last two games have been some tough viewing but like said in here, first defeat in 8 and January to come. Desperate for a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
