Crystal Palace 1-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

Think both teams swapped kits at half time. Complete Jekyll and Hyde performance from both to use the old cliche

After first half it's shit we've drawn. 

After second half it's not a bad outcome. 

 

But we should have killed the game off first half for sure.

 

Kelechi had his chance today to perform. Missed it. 

 

Harvey Barnes though . Two quality strikes in 2 days with his weaker foot. 

 

 

Great summary. I thought we were really good in the first half and it was really frustrating to see such a tame penalty.

 

Second half I thought we were awful and didn't start playing until Barnes scored with a wonderful goal. We did very little in that second half and were lucky to get the point in the end.

 

Definitely feels like dropped points, but perhaps not the worst result. 

[Ted Maul]

These are absolute garbage, could have been worse but that's a shocker. 

 

We've hit our ceiling unless we can cut out these frequent performances against the dross.

[Oxfordfox83]

With a second string we dominated and can’t complain too much about the draw. I just wish we’d come out in the second half and tried to attack once or twice.

Decent first half, decent last 10, but Rodgers team talks need to get in the bin.

[HybridFox]

Pleased we got something but we go in at HT ahead and we win this game easily. Poor finishing has cost us, that team was more than good enough to get the job done. We move on

Poor result, but bloody hell we had enough chances to win it. 

[Dahnsouff]

Stood up for Kel long enough. Get a proper striker in.

Do not care what hone says, we cannot function with just one unless we plan to retire Vardy early.

[coolhandfox]

Rodgers must feel like his fighting with one hand tied behind his back with Nacho, Gray and Perez as his attacking options.

 

Decent pt in the end

[RGFox]

No cutting edge without vardy. No confidence in Perez/nacho to get any more than 5 goals in pl all season. 

[goody2028]

Fuming 

[tom27111]

More points dropped against utter shit.

 

Exactly why nobody takes us seriously. Top teams consistently put these to bed. We don't. 

[H.a.r.r.y]

such a leicester result

Some of our fringe players really don't do much to make the manager rethink  his preferred 11 do they?

We won’t face a worse team than Palace all season. Massive wasted opportunity that.

At least we'll get a second bite in the New Year.

[BigGibbo]

What a shower of shite! 🤦‍♂️

 

I was excited for a few minutes though...

[Number 6]

Enough there to have put the game to bed in the first half and would have been perfect couple of days. But at times in the second half it felt like we'd never score so in the end nice to pick up a point. Overall it's definitely 2 dropped though.

[seenitall]

Nacho - No

Gray - No

Perez - Hmmmm

Rodgers - ???? Depends which day

 

[Stuntman_Mike]

The gamble backfired. Terrible point, no excuses as it should've been three. 

 

I hope that's officially the last we ever see of Gray. 

 

Credit to Barnes, Justin, Mendy, Evans and Thomas. 

[bfox]

Disappointing draw. Nacho gets a whopping 1/10 for that performance. Kaspers lack of any middle ground shot stopping needs highlighting, either a blinder or woeful saves from him. Complete let off for palace that

Barnes and Gray were probably at the same level 12 months ago, now look at the difference.

Think you mean that Gray was at the same level as Barnes was 12 years ago

[Guest Kopfkino]

On a positive note, it’s the sort of game we’ve been losing so at least we salvaged a point.

 

But it’s so ****ing frustrating. Probably the worst team we’ve played, at least West Brom started the game well, these were dogshit for all but 5 minutes. Should have been comfortable at half time and just been able to manage out the win. Thank god for Harvey Barnes
 

Iheanacho a liability, Gray predictably a greedy useless ****.

[adam]

2 points down the pan. Waited to long to make the changes. Too many players never gonna be good enough here. Hamza and Ian especially. Gray sub was just bizarre. Hopefully never gets another look in. Fair enough resting players but surely we didn't have to rest 9. No one else will do that today. Best make sure we win the next game. No chance of us getting in the top 4 if we can't manage to beat Palace. They were hopless. 

[foxfanazer]

Don't want to see Iheanacho starting a premier league again for us. Get rid 

[Dusty]

Not Brendans fault at all, missed chances, then got complacent, then got rattled when they scored. Harvey saved us. 
 

But players that were playing well at the start of the season are now looking like very poor options. Iheanacho, praet and Mendy were poor today imo. 
 

Need a striker in jan, jovic is avaliable for loan and we should go for it, even if there’s a hefty loan fee involved. Can’t cope with watching iheancho play one good game a season.
