With that attitude we will go down. Our chances are in the balance but in our favour ATM. We're odds against to go down. I don't want this to be true and I'd like to see pictures of him at the game tomorrow. That'll go a long way to showing his commitment.

I'd rather see Kelly back from injury . He not scared to get stuck in . A true palace warrior without the s***e haircut.

oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton.

This.

Maybe he knows the importance of being fit for the big games (i.e. the games we can win). Maybe he is still mentally scarred after the Palace v Tottenham match last year. Maybe he is a little baby like you all seem to be saying. Who knows.

I don't buy the argument that it's better he misses the Spurs game to ensure he's fit for the so called '' winnable '' games.

There's a pretty strong inference from Roy that he considers Sakho to be fit and therefore available but the player is not up for it.

Looks like The Soldier just became a Conscientious Objector

Old, Ungifted and White

It was a stupid ambigious comment from Roy. If he is frustrated and in doubt about Sakho's commitment he certainly should sort that internally and it is in no way beneficial to bring this out. Yet I am suprised at the amount of people willing to judge from the sidelines and condemn MS. When played has always given his all and has been immense. Now because of a dodgy comment from the manager he all of a sudden is parasite. I don't get it, one would think most people would feel anyone has the right to sense and judge his own body.

NO I do not think it odd. Roy would like him to play but the player who knows how fit he is has said he is not yet fully fit. What is wrong with Roy telling us that?
