If we brought on Prince Philip for Eze we would be better.

No shape, chasing shadows, Wilf losing his temper. All looks to be adding up to a pasting.

I await Roy's hang dog look at the after match just putting it down to a bad day at the office and trying to paper over the cracks.

We are about 2 yards off the pace at all times.

Us 0 attempts them 10. Its pathetic and we cant even blame Sakho this time

The thinking must be that to go toe to toe with them is suicidal. Hard to imagine it could be worse than it’s ended up today but in the longer run it probably makes sense.

To mangle the old saying, when we’re good we’re sort of ok, but when we’re bad we’re total w***.

As per usual we have no midfield.

Luka is nothing like he used to be, Jairo seems to be neither a defender or midfielder. Ayew is a centre forward (wasted on the right) and Eze is a No. 10.

Add to that Kouyate, as great as he has been in defence, gives us a presence in midfield. Benteke is his usual waste of space.

I know Chelsea are class above, but we offer absolutely nothing against them.

No disagreement there pal - total w***!

Does anyone think Roy will make changes at half time ? He can’t possibly leave it as is can he?

Honestly, did anyone expect any better than this?

Men against very poor boys.

Man and boy Palace since my first game in 1948 sitting on my dad's shoulders

We got a future star on the bench. Why not shove Ayew in the middle and bring Rak Saki on.

Within two minutes it was obvious 4-4-2 was the wrong line-up. After we go 0-3 down we finally switch to 4-5-1 and get more control. Eze has been poor in possession today being responsible for at least one goal. Kouyate and Ayew at least getting stuck in.

For all the flaws we can pick though Chelsea have been class. I guess when you spend half a billion on your squad occasionally it is going to produce!
