He certainly wasn’t to good the last 2 years in training , when he hasn’t always got in the match day squads let alone the team. He definitely wasn’t to good when he got his chance this season against Colchester. He was to bad. Actually stood out as being sht, in that joke of a game. A decent block against West Ham doesn’t make him Pirlo.

Yes I agree with you as a footballer, however he does attract a salary at Palace that he would probably not achieve anywhere else, so showing a professional streak and not throwing toys out the pram when not playing may be financially inspired, rather than a personal character trait.

That is a possibility. I remember Charlie Cooke many decades ago who's footballing brain was far superior to his team mates and he had a similar problem

Sadly, yes - and Meyer has suffered in the same way - by not being on the same negative wavelength as some of his team mates.

Originally posted by Aray I’m glad some fellow Palace fans recognise his efforts on Thursday- what a goal saving tackle! It’s a shame we can’t fit such a good passer into the team regularly somehow. agreed but whilst ever Roy goes for his two defensive midfielders he will struggle to get a chance further up the field.

General 11 Jan 20 3.37pm
Finally I feel able to say what I’ve wanted for months and months now this guy has proved his class. What a baller. Intricate touches that just make me smile. Can actually kick a ball properly too in most scenarios which is a rare commodity it seems..! Imagine what he’d have been like by now if we’d actually played the guy for a few months at the start of his Palace career. If he carries on playing he will only get better and be a massive asset. Cannot for the life of me see why he would not get tuned up to a midfield role. his attempted one two’s and rotation with players make me think we can be a little more proactive with him more involved in the play. Must start signing his name soon he deserves it!

Seconded ! Great to watch. Now what does this say about Roy’s rejects. As I recall wan bissaka only got a chance due to ward injury. Camarasa unused, Meyer, not preferred, riedewald, well almost offloaded to Germany. Could be we have a toy problem?

Best thing about Riedewald for me is his composure. Seems to be one of the few players we have that doesn't panic the second they're in position for more than 3 seconds.

I love Roy..but the blame stops with him. He will never play jairo/max/McCarthy etc etc..he just doesn’t like them...we all know they won’t be playing now if ‘roys’ team was fit. It pains so much to say that Roy has to go if we are to progress..it that simple. Loud n Proud since '76.

Said it a few weeks ago.. Better than PVA.. He is strong on the ball, can pass, tackle and wants to prove himself to the Palace Faithfull. Could be the signing on the season... If you get the drift..

In fairness Riedewald has previous looked overweight and off the pace and has done little in cup games, pre season friendlies etc suggest he should be ahead of PVA, Luka, Kouyate. JM. etc. He’s taken his recent opportunity well and was excellent today great feet in Arsenal’s third. For his faults PVA brings balance with his pace and attacking threat from defence Edited by Rachid Rachid Rachid (11 Jan 2020 6.28pm)

I'd be happy to see them both in the team when fully fit. Think we'd be much more creative going forwards.
