Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. We played pretty well throughout today's game didn't we? We were really good today as we have been for 10 games….

Some wonderful football, fabulous result. 10th in the league. My only regret was not seeing a goal from Michael after he was deliberately fouled in a few promising positions. Good to see Ollie put on the lads who are leaving for a last hurrah. Never mind our best players, our manager will be much in demand after the way he has transformed us. I watched a stream with a foreign commentator who I couldn't understand, but he seemed to be eulogizing about Glasner all match. Class touch by the Manager to give Tompkins and Riedewald a bow. The only surprising thing for me is how long (relatively speaking!) it took for Glasner to work his magic. Five points from his first six games? Since when, mayhem. As a pessimist and a Jonah, I eat a large slice of humble pie and salute the Chairman and the Director of Football for making a series of right calls. If Guehi doesn't think that Palace is good enough for him, let him go. Wharton was an amazing signing and it's good to see Mateta playing as he is. Andersen is a tremendous player. Frightening how much better Palace is when Eze and Olise are both available. Would the previous manager have got out of them what Glasner has, had they been fit?

Nice to watch but was Eze saying goodbye with his long walk? No, he was enjoying the fans adulation and thanking them for their support through a difficult season. He may be elsewhere next season but that support will feature in his decision.

Watching them on the pitch (when not in play) Eze & Olise look like they will only leave if the same team buys both of them - they seem inseparably bonded and mutually supportive above and beyond the rest of the team. I'm with you on this becky. As long as some smart a**e team doesn't think it's a BOGOF deal.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

The players have a unique opportunity to achieve something as a group. Who needs the entitled fans and all the pressure of being at a big club when you can be a superstar and folk hero at Palace?

He got 18 points from 10 games which wasn't so bad; if he hadn't stayed on, which gave Freedman more negotiating time, would we have got OG as his successor?

Guehi played a very interesting position today, with class, quality and authority. He will only get better in this new role. He would be crazy to leave. This is by far the most exciting team in the Premier.

Southgate has really missed a trick here. Guehi, Wharton, Eze and Olise should not only be in the England squad, they should all be nailed on starters.

What with Mateta turning into a goal machine, the world really has gone crazy, even Sorloth(remember him?) scored 4 against Real Madrid today

Wharton is absolute class. He makes football look so easy. What a player.
