Roy manages well considering what he has to work with at Palace, the quality, strength, depth & age of the squad compared with the top 6 teams in the premiership.
As others have already pointed out 3 games in six days also killed us!
Liverpool won't score 7 goals from 8 shots on target in many other games this season & didn't play nearly as well in the last 2 or 3 matches as they did yesterday.

As far as we are concerned lets just hope Roy & Ray can get the players heads up, some confidence restored and Palace hit the ground running on Boxing Day against Villa, at least Benteke will be back as a focal point up front.
I watched Man Utd v Leeds Utd today and although the score was 6-1 that could have been anything from 5-5 to 10-0.
Also I saw Harry Maguire jump with his arm across across Bamfords face, catch him in the eye with his finger and the referee totally ignore the whole thing as most others have always and currently do. As it wasn't his bent arm and using his elbow!

There was a 6-0 at home first game of the season when Ray Wilkins went injured i think, but that was with Alan Smith

'I think we have a lot of experience in the group.' Perhaps Luka just means the team is too old.
Getting hammered at home is one thing but what I really can't abide is players commenting on it. It's inevitable that some clown will say something like: 'this can only make us stronger' or 'we can learn from this' or that statement of the bleeding obvious: 'we have to move on to the next game.' Just say nothing!. If a player or manager is contractually obliged to say something to 'Premier League Productions'or whateer it calls itself, say as few words as possible. As a society, we don't do concepts like 'shame' or 'guilt' any more and the players are more likely to be on the golf course than still in the changing room but can they seriously believe that they should draw their pay this week rather than, say, donate it to charity?
Even worse would be if someone were to say: 'well, look at Southampton. 0-9 to Leicester last season and look at them now.' Or: 'Well, Liverpool lost 7-2 to Villa'. in fact Luka has already said that.
To lose 0-7 at home when we've been seven consecutive seasons in the Premiership is much worse than getting stuffed 9-0 at their place in the late eighties.
The only good that can come from today's debacle is the acceptance that it is just a waste of time to play the likes of: McArthur, Ayew, Ward, Dann, Schlupp, Kouyate against any top six side.
All that matters is that this is NOT just regarded as 'one of those freak results that can happen during the Covid season.'For a group of highly paid professionals to lose 0-7 at a home is a disgrace. Will anyone at the club say as much?

I don’t always agree with you Tickled but I do with this. I couldn’t find a previous message to respond to you. Happy Xmas to yourself also.

I think what we learned today that unless given maximum protection from 3 DMs then our defenders are hopeless. Clyne is a shadow of the player he was and not up to it and our ageing CBs must be the slowest in the Prem. PVA has a bit of pace but no brain, he's like the scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz. Also our midfielders are very one paced. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but we should have gone for Gallagher instead of Bats to put some energy into the team
