It rocks us massively if we concede, we just go into our shells and collapse.

That's it. Never just one player its all of them that seem to lose the plot...just dont get it. We should be comfy..ish at 2-0..instead another 3-3 draw.

Just switch off and who knows where Kepa was running off to

I find it kinda hilarious that some spout about we only score from individuals talent. But when individuals fuck up its a tactical or management problem.... the way we started yesterday was superb, so let's get 1 thing straight lampard has some sort of clue because we smashed the game nearly the entire half. U can say what u want but my opinion will not change, our defense is just a disgrace. Azi kepa AC zouma rudigar alonso Emerson just trash dave has had his day he cannot push forward and make it back I time he hasn't got the legs, AC zouma do not mix its like watching a bull and a small scared lost boy out there. Kante this right here is the problem Kante is done, he pushes up to much he can't pass he spoils are offensive play n he's barely ever there to cover his own cock ups. If we are going to play this attacking football we need  Fernandinio or some sort of defensive quarter back player(if u say Jorginho u should slap yourself) you put a a shelvey or a Phillips in this team for kante and change jorgi for for say barkley or even mount it would completely change our play and open up completely new offensive channels.

I see we've found our new scapegoat now Alonso's out of the team.

Or maybe, just maybe, Palace "didn't attack" because we didn't let them?

I mean think about this Palace recently went to Old Trafford scored 3 and could have scored 8, they saw us ship three to West Brom the previous week, their strength on the counter is also a weakness for us, you really think they would look at those things combined and think "nah ain't going to bother attacking today what's the point"?

Not to mention they've won more big games away to the big six in recent years than the big six sides themselves, we limited a very dangerous and pacey counter attacking side to absolute scraps.

I can see your point, but can't accept it.

Let's be honest, we were dominated by Brighton, we were dominated by wba for 45 mins and we were dominated by soton for more than 2/3rd of the game. Let's not even go to pool.

Palace was either an out of the world performance from us, or a shit showing from them. 

Also against United, they had 20% of the ball, it was a classic counter attacking performance. Palace have always played passively, sitting deep and then countering. As much as I would want to believe you, I just can't based on all the rest of our performances and the way palace normally sets up.

Chris is indeed dogshit, he wouldnt play in any other top club for me. How he is ahead of Tomori is beyond me, im not saying Tomori is WC but somehow he has been frozen out, something that has happened to a few players to suddenly jump back in out of nowhere.

Let's be honest are attack 4 are brilliant could even throw mount in there 2, we have a decent lb now and mendy dunno we not seen him really. Silva will be awesome but he's a quick fix. The rest are trash jorgi dave kova zouma AC kante kepa, they simply ain't good enough or even close to been good enough, we need another 2 players to make this team a centre back and a quarterback style DM, Phillips and say Connor coady would make this team. Just 2 players as a for instance

Maybe we were dominated by BHA but how many games last season did that happen in reverse? Apparently only the result mattered then.

The fact that Palace created all those chances at OT with 20% possession proves my point, why would they refuse to (counter) attack a side when they had so much success vs a side with a better defensive record that also finished above us a mere fortnight before?

AC, Kepa, Zouma, Kante and Mount all shit yesterday so add them to Alonso's replacements.

And people seem to forget Tomori was also making a lot of silly mistakes before being dropped and it was only a matter of time before they led to goals, and lets not pretend patience would have been shown to him by supporters either.

Yeah thats plausible but Chris has played too many games compared to Tomori, he is weak as fuck and very rarely do I see him do good stuff. Our whole backline is fucked, infact the shape of the team is fucked more often than not. We are a 2020 Lamborgini avantedor up front, but a Fiat punto on 3 wheels with a non working exhaust at the back.
