For me ref had a poor game in bookings west spam should of had a couple, but even more disappointing was Zaha again i was at arsenal and he had no passion spent to much time complaining or sitting on the floor same last night,He needs to stop the complaining get off the floor and become part of the palace team again, at the moment he is only playing for team Zaha not team palace, may sound harsh but he is putting us down to 10 men hoping the ref will change his mind its not going to happen so sooner Zaha starts singing from the same hymn book the quicker we get away from the bottom because he has the talent to help us do it

Something has been off with Wilf for the last few games. There does seem to be something not quite right with Wilf at the moment. To me, he looks like he is holding back. Maybe he is carrying an injury none of us know about? He Doesn't appear to want the ball as much, certainly not showing for it like he did when he first came back from his injury. Everything at the moment with him seems so slow, he literally slows the game down. Dare I say his demeanour does not look happy and even lacking in enthusiasm. Its just a worry that the usual tactics with Wilf are possibly starting to affect him and his performances. The constant fouls, referees not protecting him which obviously visibly drives him nuts and of course like last night teams doubling and tripling up on him. The problem with Wilf is that he is very easy to rattle which often affects his game. I am not criticising Wilf at all, I love the fella, to me our greatest ever player but its a worry to see his dip in form. We are so reliant on Wilf it is unreal. As a footnote, what an absolute soulless excuse for a football stadium that place is. Edited by MonsterMunch (31 Jan 2018 9.36am)

Originally posted by Flightsequence I couldn't disagree more about PVA. I think he is constantly caught out of position, and most of the good work he does is rectifying the defensive mistakes he makes. He looks good going forward until he loses it, but as a safe defender, not for me. PVA a good signing by Big Sam there is a rumour he is still interested. An option available to us is to play him further forward, even as front man, as we have Souare a proven left back. Think he is a goal scorer.

The upper tier might as well have been in Stratford station.

At the moment we're quite easy to neuter by just concentrating on Wilf. Bangell - If Camus wrote The Myth of Sisyphus today, it would be about Jason Puncheon eternally trying and failing to pass with his right foot.

Well Wilf always starts and the opposition plan ahead. So why not introduce him during the match when their minds are by then occupied.

I understand he is being doubled teamed but he needs to pass rather than try and beat everyone, if theres 3 on him then that means we have 2 extra players to work with,He does seem a yard short of pace not getting past players so maybe he is carrying a knock,He just needs to play smarter

So West Ham played an under strength side given 9 team changes and they played against a Palace team riven with injuries. Key match though given where both teams are in the table and the gap ever closing at the bottom given Swansea's fantastic win last night. Palace urgently need to convert draws into wins.

I think back to those 2 penalty misses in added-on time ! I think an average of a point a game from now on should be enough to see us in the PL next season.

Their team at the weekend was their second string. That team last night had many first team regulars. We were poor and we got an away point. Prior to Roy, over the last two years how many times have we said that? If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Watch the game last night, our movement was terrible, and i think this us part if the problem at the moment, wilf probably feels he has to do it all on his own.
