I know he only stayed for a short while,but i don't remember Palace ever getting rolled over under Pulis.I was at Everton away 3-2 when we won,why can't we just have a go a bit more...... Our biggest defeat in 27 PL games under TP was 3-0 up at Newcastle. Our points tally of 41 from those games was excellent, but in 13 of them (i.e. almost half) no more than one goal was scored.

Chelsea were just a lot better today. It happens in football and I'm quite optimistic about our squad and some of the prospects like Banks. The premiership future for Palace has always been about how we play when Zaha goes. The fact that we get beaten by good teams now and then is inevitable. The day when we have a massive quality stadium with massive attendances perhaps we can expect more....until then. Quite right. We can hope for better players but the right to expect a win against the likes of Chelsea is a long way off. We need to go to the next level for that sort of ambition and that cost a whole lot of money that will only come with a new stadium and new ownership.

Even though we shouldn't expect to beat the big teams do you think that was a satisfactory performance today? Surely we should expect a better performance than that.

The next 5 or 6 games are pivotal but give me Eddie Howe or Sean Dyche as soon as you like !

Need to perform better. The players. Roy isn't playing at the moment, not sure if he is injured or not though. But as he is not in the the squad, not sure what he can do to make 11 players do better. The formation worked relatively well in the previous 3 matches. Do you really think he told them to play differently?

We just lost to a team who’ve spent over 100+ million on attacking players because Sakho made 3 costly errors that Roy can’t legislate for. Before then we didn’t look in any danger. Where were you lot when we beat United? 2 years in a row by the way. Something NO manager has ever done with Palace in the Prem. Not to mention the wins against City and Arsenal. Do you think he set the team out today any differently to those games? We can’t celebrate Roys tactics when we beat the ‘Top 6’ and then bemoan them when we don’t. We’re a mid table side, with inconsistent players (which is why they’re at palace), sometimes we’ll get surprise wins, most of the time we won’t and it will look comfortable for big sides. That’s football. Nobody would mind a defeat as long as we show some ambition to win. Roy went there for a 0-0.
I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |

Actually yes I do. I think he told them to play deep and narrow and stay in the game as long as possible. Back to the tactics from last season. Trouble is we went a goal down and game over. Didn't start off like that against utd...plus it was obvious very early that we were being overrun in midfield and playing 442 wasnt working, did he change it in any way? Did he change it in any way?? Sadly,beyond his ability to do so.

Last week we only just lost to the League leaders thanks to a crazy VAR decision, this week we looked Sunday League
