Under the cosh, Ayew brings a save from Martinez.

[Risso]

I think this just shows it doesn't really matter if you play Coutinho or Buendia if the rest of the midfield are shit.

[villadelph]

GET KONSA OFF.

This is nightmare stuff - thank you Emi.

[Toronto Villa]

What a fucking save by Emi. We are a shambles

[Toronto Villa]

Konsa is having a nightmare

[Steve67]

We really need another enforcer in midfield don't we?   

[Stu]

Going to be a long season.

[ez]

Bloody hell. I'd take the draw now.

[Nelly]

The only possession we've had has been between Mings and Martinez. This is shit.

[Flin5tone]

I hope the owners are watching this

[Axl Rose]

I want more from Bailey. Looked great in pre season.

Joe Bennett sent off for Wigan. Had forgotten all about old Joe

[SamTheMouse]

Bailey with the equivalent of shooting yourself in the foot in the trenches, there.

[PeterWithesShin]

Buendia has a shot! Finally, only taken us over half an hour to have another one.

[PaulWinch again]

Brilliant save, but we’ve really switched off.

[Toronto Villa]

Palace just look bigger, stronger and faster. And meaner. And overall much more organized and focused.
