You cannot be serious, we were threatening a second goal for fifteen mins and had moan.u all over the place and you criticise Hodgson for one player on the pitch making one mistake to allow Young a free hit!

I've criticised him for at least 4 mistakes. But there are several every week. There's two mistakes highlighted in your post.

We were on the ascendancy before Benteke came on.

Mayer was a great sub because he should have started.

We sadly forgot Young was on the pitch but up until that moment after our goal we were on top and moan.u were looking worried, Meyer needs to play at least 45 mins yes ..and removing Van Aanholt is never a good idea unless injured he and Schlupp are very instrumental with us attacking with pace.
Benteke needs time on the pitch because he belongs to us and will be with us next season,

Yes and he was involved in all the goals tonight lol and really should have done much better with one of the best chances with that header from Townsend's lovely cross, I like him because he gets himself stuck in and has a lovely pacy pass when he gets it right.
We cannot be too critical tonight on our players, we very nearly deserved a draw.

Young said that he gave us our goal ..someone needs to explain to him that every single goal scored is because of a mistake.

This was truly bizarre tonight, we played shocking until they scored twice, brought on Meyer who made us look like a different team, played likeBarcelona for 15 minutes and then Roy in his infinite wisdom decides to take off PVA and move Schlupp to left back. Was it 30 seconds later they scored down that side whilst Schlupp was still adjusting to his new role thereby killing the game? As good as Meyer’s substitution was, Kouyate for PVA was a poor decision. He should have moved Meyer to left midfield and taken Schlupp off if he wanted to bring Kouyate on.

We showed for 15 minutes tonight that Utd were there to be beaten but we just seem to lack faith when we play them. Never mind, there is always next year!

For me the tactics have to change at home as it is just not good enough we have played 14 games at home winning 3 drawing 4 and losing 7 scoring just 10 goals and a minus 5 goal difference.

We blame CB and soon it will be MB but the honest answer is we just don’t play to a strikers strengths.

MB face when he saw he was being taken off said it all, for me tonight was a free hit and at 2-1 down we were starting to get on top surely that was the time to bring CB on and go 442 instead we keep the same old tactics then wonder why CB does not score exactly what service did he or MB get tonight.

We have the best Defence outside the top 5 was missing 2 of the normal 4 and then with 10 to go take PVA off why what did this exactly achieve if he had taken PVA off to switch to 3 at the back and to play 2 up top then we would have shown some ambition in trying to force the game instead we stick as we are and still end up losing and conceding another goal.

We need to start letting teams worry about us instead of us continuously worrying about them.

The stats don’t lie something has to change at home the tactics clearly work away from home.

Please Roy you have start Meyer at home as he drives us forward and if we are going to get the best out of CB & MB we have to play them together as 1 up clearly is and has not been working for sometime.

When we are mathematically safe the useless cost centre can play every minute of the remaining league games, but not FA Cup if we still in it.

Hopefully he will put in a couple of good performances so we can get rid of him with a mitigated financial hit

Schlupp was only one able to have a go the Bullies tonight, our defenders were too weak tonight and we missed Sakho!!

Thought subs were bizarre today.

SChlupp having a nightmare so takes Mccarthur off. Then when we're fully in control and dominating disrupts our rhythm and brings on Benteke for Batshuyai. And to cap it all off takes off a left back for a centre mid and they immediately score from the vacant left back position. So strange

A tad harsh I think. Yes went missing for the third goal but to be fair on him it was a bizarre substitution

does anyone have any footage right at the end of the game, when their player hit their keeper who drops ball in the net.. BBC says Benteke made a foul on keeper, I was there but I cant recall him doing that and all around me said independently.. that was an own goal. Did Benteke foul or was it Atkinson guess work?

How come Atkinson doesn't book Sanchez for diving?
Then Luka injured holding his head, when utd break away and get free edge of our penalty area, Atkinson isn't bothered LUKA is still on the floor... hes marking out for the free kick..... their keeper gets tangled in net briefly and Atkinson runs over to check on him????

Team selection and substitutions have been a bone of contention all season. They were exemplified today following the arrival and subsequent improved fitnesss levels of Batshuyai.
Taking off McArthur for Meyer was a very sound substitution not made before time. It not only transformed us into a powerful dangerous machine that soon led to a very well worked goal but also brought into question yet again why we do not give significantly more field time to one of our most expensive extraornarily talented players. Meyer’s arrival on the pitch instantly transformed us into a very well balanced fast moving slick team constantly threatening the opposition goal.
To then remove Batshuyai was at the very least confusing, but immediately de powered our threat. To follow that substitution with what had to be one of the most bizarre switches this season by pulling off van Arnott for Kouyate expecting Schlupp to instantly switch his thinking process from midfield to left back instantly resulted in acres of space allowing the very annoying yet talented Ashley Young to sweep through and end the game.
So we very successfully turned our team into a potent goal scoring threat for 15 minutes before inexplicably de powering us with the removal of our very energetic loanee for the inclusion of our totally impotent Benteke followed by the Kouyate, van A, Schlupp debacle.
Bizarre to say the least. Confusing, questionable and oh so Palace as we threw away such a great opportunity to rinse the sickly pink shirts from Manchester and end their exceptional revival under Solskjaer.

Do you mean when Joel kicked it out of De Gea’s hands?

That’s also my thoughts on the match. Really disappointed with our play up to the second goal. Just played with no pace and allowed Utd to slow the game down and dictate how the game went? And yes, the PVA decision finished it for us. Sakho missing didn’t help as well. Worried for us without him for the coming matches :-(
