Leicester played exactly the same style as Roy at Arsenal, one shot on target and win one - nil. Dont see their fans complaining!
They don’t play that way at home to BHA, or practically every week

That’s because it’s where the cheap season tickets are that were all bought up as soon as the stand was built and has remained that way ever since.
The main stand has a high number of one-off visitors.

I was pleased with our performance against Fulham. We didn't control the game in terms of possession, but it always felt like we had a bit more in the tank and Lookman aside we never looked in danger. If we played like this every week I would be happy. We are a counter-attacking side, and we managed that well. My worry is that Fulham are the weakest side in the league with a very inexperienced defence and perhaps made us look good.
I think the next few games will tell us more than Saturday as they are games we should be competitive in even if we don't get any points.

Been surprised with activety up front. Think Eze has threatened Zaha slightly which has him fired up and moving up to penalties has helped him.

Everyone is messing up this year think there could be an upset in EPL.

I see our Roy is joint 6th favourite with Frank Lampard @ 16-1 to be sacked according to talkSPORT
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

I just re-iterate that there is no vacancy and unlikely to be for the foreseeable future. Hodgson has secured Premiership survival for us the last 3 seasons on a relative shoestring and there is every chance this will be extended for yet another season. The football might be dour and uninspiring but the end has justified the means.

The Premiership is in Scotland. You mean the Premier League?

The first manager thats in after Roy, will find out just how bad Roy has left the club. Survival football means a club doesn't develop and Palace under Roy, its just stagnation, no desire to win a cup, just to achieve 40 points is his only target...

What a puerile statement that is. It takes no account of the financial constraints Roy has had to work under, which Pullis and Allardyc refused to do. Look further than Roy for the reason why the club has not progressed.

@PZEagle
What do you mean by "financial restraints"?
We have the 9th highest player budget in the Premier League!
So more than half of the clubs in this league have more "restraints" than us.
Still think Roy is doing a good job?

Financial restraints - reportedly around £1bn has passed through the coffers during this latest stint in the Prem.

Largely spent by Pardew and Allardyce whose ageing players are still here on big money and long or extended contracts because of our inactivity in the transfer market.
As PZ pointed out Allardyce clearly didn't fancy our chances.

We needed a talented midfielder ever since Cabaye left. We finally spend to buy one. Eze looks great every time he's played. Roy has him on the bench. He starts Luka over Eze for god's sake.
That alone has to enrage SP. If we continue to look hopeless, and we have a talented young offensive midfielder on the bench, it's hard to defend Roy.

Not including todays Leeds game...
Palace form, last six months ie from June due to Lockdown. WLLLLLLLLDWWLLDWL thats 11 (L), 4 (W), 2 (D) or 14 points from last 51 points available, all under Roy. thats the reality of the form guide......
Is that good enough to keep Roy as manager?
