Mitchell has played the 2nd most amount of minutes in the squad. He's literally the only left back we have. And he's simply not good enough. He's not a great defender and rarely goes past the halfway line so what's he bringing to the team? Can't say he's a young player learning anymore. We persisted with Ward for far too long after he was any good. Why do we get attached to players who aren't good enough?

I love Palace I really do. Have supported them my whole life. But watching them the last couple of seasons has been painful. I had hope that OG would finally move us forwards. I know it’s way too early to judge, he is basically having to use a beaten up squad full of players either injured, out of form, old or just not good enough… but I am surprised it really is no better than under Roy. I watched a lot of EFL yesterday and it was better than we are watching week in and week out. As others have said, I now worry where the next point is coming from. Hopefully when Olise is back our threat will increase, shame he is likely to be back for Man City and Liverpool. I really hope we get enough points one way or another to stay up and OG does get a chance to build his team. I know we have had massive injury’s wreck our season but for me the biggest loss we’ve had this year is the threat that Wilf brought. I don’t think it can be underestimated how much we relied on him over the years. Oh well bring on City. COYP.

Always a bit alarming when you don't get a bounce from a new manager. Can't quite see what has changed since Glasner's come in but then again the injury crisis is biting and there's absolutely no depth on the bench.

Wharton for me should be POTY, quick accurate forward passing, he is showing the more experienced players up. For me the only player doing the business. Eze is the new Zaha, more waste than ace. Its a shame Wharton isnt capable of playing a full game. He passes ok, but doesnt drive forward with the ball, creating space. Munoz very poor game, Ayew off form, Mateta needs support from midfield.

This game highlights yet again just how poor we are, one win since Glasner arrived not a reflections on him but on the low quality of our squad left to replace those key players out injured. We are heading in the wrong direction and like others have eluded, where on earth are we going to get the points we need to keep us out of that 18th spot. We have nothing offer in the final third and if you can't score you can't win!

Reading the posts on here is as depressing as watching our football.

Ayew being the loser he was a year ago (but he stepped up so couldn't criticise him anymore). He's reverted back to being a passenger. Absolutely did sweet F ALL. Maybe he thinks with Glasner he can get away with that sh1te again? What did he contribute today? He was INVISIBLE. I can't stand Hughes but he showed the right stuff today and helped the team. Honestly, we have nothing with real venom up forward (like a Solanski). That's Parish & Co. We were offered Solanke on loan with option to buy,from Liverpool,but turned deal down on health concerns allowing Bournemouth to snap him up!!

Glasner is all about his attacking goal threat and making chances. There was absolutely NOTHING of that tonight. Quite pathetic. Ozoh looks like another lemon. He comes on and like Ahamada just looks awful. We lack depth. We need answers to what went wrong with Glasner’s strategy.

I’m so not happy with that second half performance. Should have been well in command after first half and then those players that looked so good first half are shattered come 60/70 minutes? Matteta, Wharton and Eza being 3 of our best players who disappeared? Then we moved Lerma into midfield where the team looked good in a 3 in the middle at the back? We fell apart with that move which I thought was bad management. Ozoh looked awful and didn’t defend the goal scored against us. Looked completely out of position? Not happy with that performance at all and Bournemouth weren’t that good - Grrr!
