Weiman just touched the ball.I
honestly didn't know he was on the pitch

Some desperate defending going on

Clark holding the defence together singlehandedly.

Both full backs under pressure but Cissokho is having a nightmare. Cant even clear the ball

Am I the only one almost entirely unimpressed with Cissokho this season?

Started off well, but soon returned to his Liverpool form. If only we signed Cresswell instead of Bennett!

 who?

[Tuscans]

All credit to Okore and Clark....haven't had a sniff all season and playing like Trojans the last few games

Palace don't half play at pace don't they.

[SamTheMouse]

I wish they'd stop passing the ball to Clark. He treats it like it's radioactive.

[Tuscans]

I think Sanchez will become a key player for us when he settles.

Like the look of him.

Benteke joins our ever growing list of goal scorers

[Tom_Mc9?]

It's nice to be winning. Let's hope a miracle occurs and we keep hold of the lead.

[rob_bridge]

The amount of times we're giving it away is criminal. I think it's partly the poor shape but it's also appalling composure

I wonder if Lowton onto the right of midfield could add protection for Hutton against Bolasie, more composure on the ball and a good cross?

Could work better

West Ham now 2-1 up at Albion

[Hampshire Villa]

Now the motivational talk from Lambert. No wonder they are crap no one can understand his mumblings.
 He probably says  things like
 Ok lads i thought we were excellent lets go again more of the same!try saying that with a mouth full of maltesers!

[Chipsticks]

Good half, let's not throw the lead away like the last few

[PaulWinch again]

Right well we're winning at half time thanks to a bit of individual brilliance. Now try and get a second and a third don't repeat the same mistake we always make.

[hilts_coolerking]

Palace are just as bad as us, if not worse.  Surely we can hang on this time.
