It's good to keep an opened mind, but not so open that your brains fall out.

I don't know what question I was supposed to be answering !

As for the sentiments above, I don't accept for a minute that referees are "In awe" of the big four and seek to make decisions in their favour.

As for all this "Inconsistency" argument, I have already made umpteen comments on HOL about this and I really don't need to repeat myself over and over again.If I was a troll I would probably delight in such regurgitation to satisfy my desire but alas I am far from being one.

I can't see how any body can blame Mandanda for the goals conceded yesterday especially the two from the corners. The tactics palace adopt at corners puts the pressure on before the ball is even put in the box.
Firstly by not putting a man up by the halfway line allows the opposing team to have two extra players in or around our box, we seem to be the only team that does this.
Secondly we don't have any body on the front post which most teams use when defending a corner, the problem with this is it roots the keeper to his line as he wouldn't want to be beaten at his near post anticipating a cross being put around the 6 yard line.
If palace adopted these basic tactics from my first point it would allow an extra player to take up a position on the front post and relieve some of the pressure.
The two balls Liverpool put in at the corners were brilliant balls, both were inswingers with a bit of pace into the keepers no mans land ( between the 6 yard line and penalty spot), I can't see how people can blame Mandanda for not claiming an unclaimable ball.
Mandanda has produced some world class saves at important times in games, the one on one at Bournemouth to keep it to 1 nil and the header from Courtiniho to keep it at 2-3.
It really is laughable that people want Hennessey to replace him because he has a longer kick that goes to no one.

So because you say it, it must be true. Just saying hes a s*** goalie doesnt really add to the debate does it. No respect for other peoples opinions have you.

A few points:

1. We still need a decent keeper. One great save from Mandanda but he was at fault for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th goals. You can't stay on your line for headers from 6 yards out.

2. Liverpool pressed us high up the pitch yet we sat back on the halfway line or beyond in the first half and tried to play as an away team.

3. Watch their corners - hit with pace so if someone does get a touch it will fly in at speed. Our corners are floated so the player meeting it has to generate all the power themselves.

4. Now 8 out of 10 games where we've conceded first.

5. Can't believe he took off McArthur with 5 mins to go and brought on Campbell.

6. Disappointed with Benteke - you expect a bit more effort from someone who cost £27m.

7. Need a decent CM to replace Ledley.

make your mind up. Point one or point three, not both.

Mondonda has done well with one on ones, his reflexes and adjustment look good. Set pieces are different because if the manager has a reliance on defenders being capable of dealing with crosses and they're not, it looks as if you're stuck on you're line.
Although WH has a longer kick.

Zaha is probably responsible for their first one, lost track of the full back, after doing really well in tracking him. A fully fit Dann, blocks that rather than deflects it. Keeper has no chance. A beautifully created goal, some amazing passing and positioning.

Second one, is Scott Dann, even if the keeper had come for it, Dann 99% of the time is winning that or getting up. Again though its a beautifully worked goal.

Third one, Tompkins loses his man, and there is absolutely no pressure on the header. If the Keeper comes for that, he's not getting near it - The Keeper impressively gets a hand on it, but the power is immense due to a free header. However, the Liverpool players do an excellent job in creating the space and time for the free header and controlling Tompkins.

Fourth One, Dann and Tompkins too far apart, caught out for pace. But in truth, its a beautifully timed pass and perfect finish.

As much as it galls me to say it, we were outclassed, but did really well to keep ourselves in it for so long. Better team won.

Hennessey isn't s**t, but he's most certainly been a liability over the last season for us. The only reason he remained our number 1 is that McCarthy was worse.

I''m not the final word on things but I am going to say my opinion because that is what this board is here for.

And that, gentlemen, is it in a nutshell.
