Watkins misses 2 sitters, Cash misses 2 sitters. Even without the offside goal we should be 4 up!

I think it's going to take a bit of time for the other players to get on Zaniolo's wavelength, because he does unpredictable stuff. When they do, though. Cor. He's fun to watch.

That first touch was Savo like.

Great ball from Torres as well.

Torres is a lovely player to watch.

He's still finding his feet of course, but when he's up to speed, we'll have some player.

Love how Zaniolo wants to be involved in everything. Certainly not hiding is he?

How are Palace ahead of us in the table? We should be a couple of goals up by now.

How is it that on my stream 1 commentator knows the name of our left midfielder and the other seems to just be making up words that begin with z every time he gets the ball?

Fucking hell he’s big bloke!
1.92 m (6' 4" for Brexiters).

Or for those who were taught the imperial system at school.  Isn’t it Brexiteer?
Both Brexiter and Brexiteer are acceptable terms for gullible fucking idiot.

Alright potty mouth!

Only way to get Zaniolo off the ball is to have more than one player tackle or foul him.

Yep, and if they have 3-4 touches in our half it's a sign that they're getting some control in the game.

We need a few more people to say Watkins is shite. He usually scores when we do that on here!
