Hardly any contact, if any for that penalty and then Bizot dives out of the way.

They moved the ball quickly to create that. We never seem to.

Terrible from Torres to play the man onside there.

The problem here, this is almost a joke for Palace, they have us beaten before they walk on the pitch, they read us like a book and we change nothing to counter that.

Ollie's touch needs to improve, where have we heard that before?  Better lay off that time though.

Very soft penalty; ref was desperate to give it.

We’ve at least gone more attacking but it’s the build up that is very similar. They’re now exactly in the position they want to be to counter attack us.

Two wide fast players is a new try against them. Normally we overload the midfield and leave their wide men to do what they want, whilst still not getting anywhere near their midfield still.

Exactly. Not exactly  the toughest start of the season and 0 goals so far.
