Cheick Doucore should be suspended as long as Kamara is out injured. Dirty ****.

It’s bound to be a huge miss if it it is an extended period of time.
For me he is our best player by some margin
But we can’t let our performances and results be derailed by an injury to one player, we have been here before.
I am sure Emery will find a way to patch us up and at the same time consider future options.

The challenge on Chambers was a straight red imo.

I watched it back again this morning. He should have gone for that first one alone, shocking challenge.

I thought that up to that point, the ref had let the game flow quite well, yes he was a little lenient but if there were to be cards, they would have been for persistent fouling rather than for any bad tackles for either side.

The problem was they were getting away with increasingly poor challenges and because the ref let them go it was almost inevitable that they would keep pushing the margin.
Anyone who has watched Palace play knows that they are about.

This shows just what a poor January we had in terms of transfers, we’re now faced with the prospect of giving Dendoncker an extended run.

Not really in this case I think,  an experienced current Belgian international as a replacement is fair enough, I can't think of too many clubs that have better options. Spurs for example are currently playing that Oliver Skipp in midfield and he's shite

How's Nakamba getting on, could we recall him? He's not great but I'd rather him on the bench than 6 keepers.

We couldn’t even name a full bench though and had two sub keepers again.

I won't go into the January window again because it's been done to death. I read an article the other day where Emery says the reason why he's been picking two goalkeepers is because prefers the youth players to be around training rather than giving them false hope of naming them on the bench or something like that.

Emery didn't even put him on the bench before he left. It's a good opportunity for the Donk to show his worth. I don't think he's anywhere near as bad as made out on here.

Two of our best footballing footballing performances of the season came with Donk at the base of midfield (Brentford and Man. United at home).

I get he isn't UE's type of midfielder and he's been on the naughty step since the Stevenage debacle but if he's fit he needs to be starting v West Ham as his physicality would be a great help to end the horror run we have v them.

Chambers seemingly has lost all ability to pass a football this season, some shocking ones in his cameo yesterday so Kamara to him as DM for 5-6 games is season over imo. Dendoncker-Luiz feels more solid as long as one of the attacking players stays in form.

And what chance did Sinisalo have of coming off the bench? I can recall a couple of games in the last four years where we've had to change a keeper because of injury. I can't think of a single ocassion ever when the replacement keeper has got hurt. A third keeper, especially a youth player has got the least hope of getting a single second playing time of anybody.

I agree it's a bit odd but I'm just saying how he's explained it.
