Just joined wolfsberg this summer

Another Damien Diagonal - Total Football

Palace, just remember what happened when Bolasie got injured last season...we nearly got relegated

and the season before when he was at the Africa Cup, we played just as well if not better without him, same when Jedinak was away.

I agree with parchmore eagle, benteke and WickHam are not a suarez or Ian Wright they need to be fed by width,or its pointless signing benteke we saw the trouble we got into when we only had one fit winger no disrespect to lee for the second part of the season and leaving us with 3options again if bolasie goes I fear for the worst we need 4, also we have already discovered 442 doesn't work for us we need the extra man, in midfield so 442 should be a plan b not a plan a, you may even say the lop sided approach of bolasie as a no 10 and our left back effectively playing as a wing back stopped working as well and made bolasie hence us less effective , I preffered the first part of the season where bolasie and our lb would work the wing together or bolasie have an option to switch with zaha or to cut in and play as a 10 to confuse the opposition, re bolasie not playing well in the cup final the whole team didn't stand a chance thanks to Fellini spending the entire game switching between our rb and lb meaning when play broke wide both our wingers were double teamed bythe Man U left and right wingers and wing backs with fellani tracking our rb and lb , question is wht did Jedi spend the final just marking space instead of fellani it made our only strength null and void, I was in the Bobby moore watching dans loose his s;;t over this. So again do we remove our strength in order to hope that Townsend zaha will knw when to cut in and play as a 442 and properly support cabaye and mccarthy r ? and hit wide when we break ? And also hope that benteke and WickHam will be able to fill the midfield void by taking turns playing as a 10? Or we sign benteke and watch zaha and bolasie assists shoot up !

You rarely get consistency with flair players so you shouldn't expect it from Yala. No way do I want to go to Goodison in October and watch him p*ss all over JW.

Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Same number of PL goals and assists as the great Zaha last season.
