SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I do admire your resilience 

I was close to just typing the score I must admit

I'm glad you went with tradition. The familiarity is comforting. I trust your alerts more than BBC or Sky!

66th minute, 4-1 down and a like for like sub? Ok then.

Watkins is looking like Wesley did last season.  Lack of service/support? Or just not that good?

Come on we can’t change the system.

We're actually playing some nice stuff now - shame the game is already lost.

Shots!

[PeterWithesShin]

Game plan is working perfectly so far, lull them into a false sense of security and then batter them

[SoccerHQ]

Had 54% possession today.

Palace beat Southampton 1-0 on opening day with 29% so sometimes low block and conceding the ball is the best option for this type of opponent.

I was thinking the same. Another expensive learning on the job signing? nothing sticking up front, just like last season.

[PaulWinch again]

Too little, way too late.

[Edvard Remberg]

And another chance

If he only was able to shoot the ball properly he would be good

[not3bad]

They've got Ings but we've got Mings.

[PeterWithesShin]

Ings 'goal' offside
