Completely different team in the second half and very promising for the upcoming games. Townsend utilised far more having been missing in the first.
Despite the goals Kelly and especially Tonkins did a great job, they merely succumbed to the not so great midfield today. Wan-Bissaka fantastic yet again. Zaha seemed to have a lot of energy to use up, often overthinking situations or tricking his way back into trouble after already having beaten his man. Nice to see a couple of lesser seen faces on the pitch and contributing well.
Shame about the disallowed goal, pure nonsense! A real shame to see Soerloths match long efforts not produce anything. Really can't see how Benteke should make the team next match. Vn Aanholt showing yet again that he is in fact one of our most clinical finishers.
Incredible to see the Chelsea player not get punished at all for throwing the linesmans flag to the ground at the end there! Also sad to see Victor Moses celebrating so vigourously the goals against us.

Undone by conceding 2 meek goals, especially the second, in a lumpen first half.

No points from our nasty run against Spurs, Man Ure & Chelski, but at least our goal difference hasn't taken a pummelling.

Should have a half decent squad to choose from against Huddersfield too. COYP

Javel: That's several games now where Palace have deserved more than 0 pts.

Nick: It was nice of the referee to allow the 2nd Crystal Palace goal to stand, considering he disallowed the first goal for literally nothing at all. It should be 2-2 right now. Once again the referee has had a huge impact on the outcome of the game.

Much better second half. Why we couldn't have done this for 90 minutes must be down to RH and the tactics, also the way he did't change tactics when they were so clearly not working in the first half. The way we battled in the 2nd half gives me hope.

Isn't this the ref that gave the dodgy Niasse penalty? Now he disallows a perfectly good goal! Useless turd of a ref.

There's being biased and then there's being ridiculous

Was right to sub at half time. Now the ball is in his court to start producing as he could easily be pulled at half time if he isn't firing.
