Giroud is saying it was luck that's all.

If he did 100 more times he wouldn't score.

We showed no fight and lost every 60/40 let alone 50/50. Embarrassing.

I was at the game today, soaking wet, freezing my bits off and in terms of retention of the ball and passing what was served up was, in the first half no better than a "pub team" (Apoligies to any pub teams, there are many ggod ones out there), what the hell was going on, OK yes the opening goal was unreal, the second ..... really !
Our problems run deep, where is the fitness, desire and attitude how we didn't get a 5 goal drubbing has to be encouraging, perhaps we are lucky after all.... Tuesday's game is now one of this seasons Cup Finals for us, from those who weren't able to be at the game the Palace supporters were once again "on it" , well done to all, I believe we livened up the place ..... it truly is a weird ground for atmosphere, or the lack if it.

We are playing a r/b at l/b and the r/b is poor this is causing us all sorts of problems as AT and Wilf are not good at defending. Effort we have quality defenders we do not.

Literally was disgusting. Sam will be mad af, your players should be ashamed of themselves. We're nowhere near as good as you made us look.

Mind, what a goal by Giroud, amazing.

Benteke, Ward, and Flamini were not putting in enough effort. Giroud wonder goal should never have happened, lazy give away, lazy attempt at stopping the cross.

Sanchez aside, our wingers are not good. To be beaten against our wingers requires FB to completely s***, or wingers not to help. Both happened. 2-0 actually flattered you.

Hopefully Big Sam can turn it around for you, but imo, that was absolutely shameful from some of your players.

Go away mate. Never seen Ward not try. If some of your players had his honesty you might win something.

Completely agree with you. Today had to be the easiest 3 points you've picked up this season

Where have I been disrespectful? Always have a soft spot for your club, many friends and relatives who've supported you their whole life, been to your stadium quite a few times, one of the best supports I've seen.

That said, I'm honest. The one thing that annoys me the most is a team that doesn't try. You're paid thousands per week, least you can do is try. I laid into Ozil to a few of my friends after the City game even though they kept defending him. I love Ozil, but there's no way I can excuse the lack of effort in that game.

Similarly, what I saw today in the first half and for that Iwobi goal was clumsiness, a lack of heart and being beat to every 50-50 by us of all teams. And I'll say it straight if I see it.

One last thing, when you put on that shirt, be it ours or yours or even the Spurs shirt, it's not just a shirt, it represents history, fans, both past and present, many highs and lows, glorious moments. Call me romantic, but any player who doesn't try his 100%, no matter the manager, no matter how poor the form is, is being disrespectful

There is an away fans forum, why would you come on the one meant for Palace fans.?

Would have to agree with gooner101 , we didn't get going until we were 2 down , but lack of effort ? Maybe look at your own teams lack of effort , and you may finish higher than 4th.
