Why do I hate Zaha so much?

You wouldn't if he played for us.

Wish ppl would stop going on about how many we had by this time last week. That was last week, not now. We need to get goals in this game, not harking back to last Friday. 

[kingfox]

Our link up play has been decent at times.

 

Tough game though with not many clear cut chances.

[manders86]

Thought Perez has looked sharp. Last 20 of the half just drifted when we could have taken control.

[StriderHiryu]

I’m at the game so might not see as much as you guys but I felt that was a decent half. We controlled the match and had some good opportunities with Barnes and Vardy. Palace are where they are by being hard to break down and organised which they are. Just a bit more crispness in the final third and I think we will open them up. Patience is a virtue and we will need it today. 

[surrifox]

If they score first I think we might be done . They are expert at spoiling and shithousi ng tactics 

[Bazly]

Boring game with both teams looking for a 1-0 but happy with a 0-0. Barnes has been ineffective. Soyuncu having to cover for Chilwell lots and Chilwell even being AWOL is ineffective. Ricardo sloppy on the passes today. First half both wings are pretty poor. I feel an Albrighton moment coming later for some snow capped crossing.

Bit worrying how passive our full backs have been, especially Ricardo compared to his usual self

He is wary of Zaha. He’s the threat to be honest. 
 

Ayew has been turfed out of Söyüncu pocket so he can go to his own changing room at half time.

[Bryn]

Yeah I think we done alright, Palace defending well as you'd expect. Think this finishes one nil to us.

Like i said earlier... would not want us to buy him

[The Guvnor]

Lot's of possesion, just need a bit more quality with the final ball.We usually step it up second half so should put this to bed.

He’s a class above. That’s why he wanted to leave. I can see people going for him again in January. He’d cost a small fortune though.

i don’t think he’s come to us or we could even afford it but i’d declare the jigsaw complete if he did.

Reasonably happy with the half. Controlled the game reasonably well. 

Reasonable summary that

[Vestan Pance]

Happy with the first half. Managing a difficult game well. Hopefully we can step it up second half as they get frustrated.

[Sunbury Fox]

Palace are so good at killing games. 

[Guest Eamonn]

Palace are pretty disappointing,  seem to ne playing for a point at home. That sais, Jonny Evans' defensive header was the highlight of the half for me.

[Fosse93]

I ****ing hate Zaha but he'd be great for us. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

I wish Barnes scored goals.

Wembley 1996. 

Victoria Park 1886. Woys first game.

[Spudulike]

We're gonna get done from a set piece or deflection, aren't we. 

[Sly]

Zaha is a quality player. Plays in patches though. Hopefully we keep him quiet. 
 

We don’t need him though and for the £80,000,000 they’d want, it’s be wasted.

[foxfanazer]

Never an easy place to go this

[Nicolo Barella]

To be honest that went about as expected. Always going to be tough to create enough chances against these guys. I'm glad we're making it much tougher for them this time around. Zaha is playing well.

[FoxInTheBirstallBox]

Surprised how much people are moaning, I'm at the game and I've enjoyed it. 

 

I think a lot of you guys need to watch the game without commentary to make your own opinions and not listen to willy puller pundits. 

 

Away from home at a horrendous ground for us to a team in form, and still well in (and capable of winning) the game 

 

Ricky p and Ayoze are bossing it
