Palace v Villa Post Match Hiding Place

[Dave P]

Minging team selection. Minging performance.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

There's no hiding place!

[LukeJames]

We probably need to can any thoughts of playing a back 3/5 again. It's monumentally shit every time we try it. I'm not sure why we went down that route.

[Chris_Jephcott]

I’ll be happy when this league season is over.

I might amend that in the next few weeks depending on outcome of Friday and CL - but really - it’s been turgid flecked with moments of goodness.

But tonight was the equivalent of finding a dog crimping one out on your lawn when you’d just treated it.

Wank.

[Brazilian Villain]

Disappointing.

[Nev]

Fucking appalling after such a good start. The introduction of a player who's been way of it all season was baffling when you have so much on the bench but the collapse in the last half an hour is on everyone.

Dreadful.

[Legion]

Not the best.

[PaulTheVillan]

Dog shit. Emery got it wrong. Players pathetic. Dreading Friday now. Thanks Villa.

[aj2k77]

Typical performance at the drummers dump. Konsa and Bailey can go this summer. We need a new defence. I think we'll see a rebuild this summer, really needed defensively but also some of the others are going to want to leave for European football.

[Steve67]

Really poor and disappointing performance for so many reasons.  Every time we think we have turned a corner, we somehow seems to implode.  The stats aren't great this season.  Really strange set up, subs and selection tonight played into Palace's hands and they have schooled us.  Terrible defensively. 

[BoVillan esq]

Dog shit. Emery got it wrong. Players pathetic. Dreading Friday now. Thanks Villa.

This

How many home games have Palace won all season? No worries, the Villa are in town.

Poor selection coupled with piss-poor application.  That was embarrassing.

[edgysatsuma89]

We need CD on the coaching staff to make sure Emery doesn't go 3 at the back again. I reckon he'd be willing to do time to stop it happening.

[Demitri_C]

Embarrassing  performance

In my eyes a totally unacceptable  defensive  display

The way we collapse at times is utterly pathetic 3 fucking 1 against palace?

We dont deserve  chanpions league based on league form. Just not good enough

[PaulWinch again]

It wasn’t great in the first half once Palace realised how brittle we are and started to attack. But they second half was as bad as anything Gerrard served up, they completely gave up and it could easily have been 6 or 7.

It’s utterly bizarre after two goals and two assists between them Unai didn’t think it might be worth starting with at least one of Rashford or Asensio. Unai wants us to play this controlled style but we cannot do it, we implode and concede stupid goals every game. The only time we look good is when we play on the front foot, it is bewildering that he keeps trying what evidently doesn’t work.
