We’ve lost the buzz and pressing we had up to these last two matches. Leeds would have been disposed off before the Villa match. Even the Burnley draw was disjointed. Perhaps it’s down to a Andersen and macca out but I’m not sure. The players don’t look as up for it and Leeds were there for the taking. Hope we turn it around but I have doubts now?

Why were we time wasting against a team like Leeds?

The rhythm has gone from our game in the absence of Mcarthur and Anderson.

Didn’t deserve to lose. Incredible miss from Benteke (he never seems to ever score when it’s put on a plate) and, let’s be honest, a really unlucky handball call. Edouard very ineffective… has never taken his opportunity when starting. No panic, but these late mistakes have cost us a fair amount of points. This run of games had the potential to get us excited… instead they are sending us crashing back down to earth. We’ll probably go and win at Utd knowing us(!).

At least Hughes got a run out but the pace was so frantic no chance to see if he has the possession skills that we so badly lack. Benteke had two golden chances to score and he reverts to last seasons dreadful form. Ayew played well but doesn't know when to release the telling pass. Zaha was threatening and drew two of their 6 yellows. Unfortunately our defence is panicky under pressure and I could have killed Tomkins for taking a quick free kick when no one was ready and Ward got his 5th booking trying to recover. Onwards now to a revitalised Man United .....
Man and boy Palace since my first game in 1948 sitting on my dad's shoulders |

Frustrating as Leeds never tested Vicente until the penalty, which was just unlucky. I actually thought Cheikh had a good game but Gallagher wasn't able to get forward enough and he should not be on set-pieces. If Zaha doesn't pull his finger out he's going to get benched. Schlupp didn't seem to do much wrong but I also didn't notice him much. Hughes came on like man wanting to fight for a starting role, which I think he'll get against United. Keep playing like this and United are going to tear us a new one. The new manager bounce is over and now Vieira has to earn his money.

Weak and characterless. Anyone want my Old Trafford ticket for Sunday? Ayew was our best player- never thought I’d end up saying that… how did the Lard Mountain miss that header? Agreed about Ayew... That's the best I've seen him play for a long time and he caused them problems all night... Ward was given a torrid time by James and I'm sorry but for as much some on here act like he's immune from criticism he offers us absolutely nothing going forward and hasn't done for a few seasons. Let's face it Leeds are crap and I thought we were the better side in a poor first half and 2nd half we were terrible... The Benteke miss... Just typical of him really. He's been doing things like that for the last 3 seasons. Also am I the only one a bit perplexed at Guaitas bizarre attempt at a dive for the penalty??

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Is that the 3rd or 4th game we lost in the last throws of the night?

Benteke’s goal post awareness again comes into question. I still believe he’s a hit and hoper ‘in the general direction’ and sometimes he will score but very often he gets found out with unbelievable misses.
The beatings will stop when morale improves. |

Still, on the bright side we’ve got Manure on Sunday. Mrs H’s apple crumble holds together better than Palace at the moment. [depression sets in]

Looking forward to seeing Clyne come in on Sunday. From the commentary sounded like the ref was a bit of a homer, influenced by the home crowd
