I haven't really been impressed with Hincapie. But people on here act like everything is gold when they go to another team.

That Max Dowman kid looks unreal.

Agreed. The type of passes that Santos played to Delap in one of the preseason games are the ones that cut teams open. Our guys really don't ever want to try those passes, yet we, like a lot of teams love doing risky passes around the back but won't do it in an attempt to cut teams open.

Would like to see a bit more risk in attack. We recycle way too much. Often times there is clearly room to attack free space.

That was obvious live. wasn’t worried.

Eze isn’t that good lol. Jeez people act like he is a world beater on here.

I remember when we won the CL in 2021 and everyone was saying "and we're just getting started"... Football changes quick. Salah and VVD are crucial and they aren't getting any younger. Despite how Diaz was rated, I think he added a lot to their team. On the other end, I don't think Wirtz is the top, top, top talent everyone makes him out to be.

I actually really like these buys, especially through our sister club. Low risk, huge upside. Its especially valuable when we have everyone on here who was sure Nkunku would shine bright and be amazing. Yet here we are... That is where signings like this are great. 12 million pounds and he goes off to France to see if he can put it together - if so - replace one of the guys that maybe didn't pan out here. It is a great long term model. We are on an upward trajectory and everyone wants the success now. We just won the club world cup... And the league is at peak competition right now. As soon as these older teams drop off, we're set to do well. I don't think Liverpool will be a powerhouse for much longer. City is in a weird spot. Arsenal has put their trust in a manager who is going to be asked some hard questions if they can't put it together now...

Next time you look at our jersey tell me what that thing is in the middle between our badge and the kit manufacturer. Its right in the middle. Let me know if Arsenal has one of those.

What a crock of shit. We have literally won more trophies than them in our down period than they have in their brightest moment in 25 years. We don’t win our first game, against a team that’s beaten Liverpool and City - and this nonsense starts coming out again. Arsenal got battered around by Man United and got lucky to walk away with a win.

That’s exactly what I think. We won’t find many teams like that. That was Palace on a roll, tactically perfect, and at their best.

You were worried about us being far too deep in the penalty with plus and minus with buys a season or so ago. Everything is fine.

No they aren't. This is exactly what is wrong with this board. 10+ comments on how the unpopular signing was shit apparently, yet you all gloss over Pedro and Palmer doing piss all. No one wants to give Palace credit. They sat defensive as f*ck and did not break their shape. That happens sometimes, and in fact, it happens more than you think with a team like Palace who beat Man City and Liverpool.

There is a reason these guys beat City and Liverpool.

You're absolutely right. Enzo was just bad enough I forgot he was on.
