Match Threads Palace vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 12

[ilikeost]

I can't believe Liverpool just threw their season away after drawing away at Fulham. No coming back from a draw.

Average performance - But these guys have been putting in immense effort game after game - no surprise that we get the average game every now or then - personally I think palace are a good side with a good prem manager - being disappointed with an away draw is big progress in my opinion

It's quite hilarious listening to Klopp complain about the refs when the fcuking Dippers were the ones benefitting from a stupid penalty call. What a whiny bitch.

Regardless of Fulham, we shouldn’t be looking at others and need To take care of our own business. We should have a 2 point gap going into Wednesday but instead we thought we’d forget to play after 0-1 and then it was too late to actually attack a team. Lucky it wasn’t as bad thanks to fulham

So what were people saying about Liverpool? Yeah, thought so.

 

[Escher]

Prefer to get a draw playing second half like Liverpool today than the way we went about it.

Liverpool came back from behind, we keep losing points from being in front.

It's the shitty negative tactics of the opening half hour 2nd half that is frustrating for the supporters, or even worse it's the inability to play how Mourinho wants because we haven't got the technical players to play out from the back, with accurate passing and clean ball control...

So annoying that we approached the game the way we did after the goal having seen the Liverpool score.

Not a very good performance today let's be honest. Dominant first 30mins, really could've pushed on and scored more if we'd wanted to - we had the Palace counter attack and Zaha in our pockets, no problems - but we decided we'd drop off. That might've worked well, scoring early and forcing them to change their game plan and come at us - but we were so passive in our defence. Very little coherent pressing to be seen and just constantly inviting them on to us. They're more dangerous than Arsenal and we shouldn't have relinquished control so easily.

Frustrating, but hopefully one of those one-off performances. Don't know whether to be relieved at Chelsea and Liverpool dropping points, or annoyed at us not taking advantage.

This is the part where people say "if we had won today we'd be 2 points clear" as if Liverpool couldn't say the same thing

We did take care of business...ok we didn’t get 3 points which would’ve been great but so what...we didn’t lose....we are going to get games like this..not the end of the world.....still top of league...if you can’t enjoy it there’s no helping you...

difference is Liverpool tried to attack through the game. We “decided” to not bother rather than kill a game. Champions kill games like today and we tried to sit on 0-1 against an inferior team. Vs Chelsea or citeh, yeah fair play but we can’t to that for 26 more games. Never see liverpool stop at 0-1

 

[Mr Pink]

It wasn't just us dropping back and a tactical thing.

People need to understand that Palace were more aggressive and won more of the niggly second balls and had us under pressure as a result.

What we needed was aggression to match them..PEH can't do it all himself.

Had we competed better for most of that second half I'm sure we would of got over the line.

In fairness you have to give some credit to Palace for a real battling performance, and we're coming up against that level of effort after a really difficult run of fixtures and European games. Always going to be difficult.

But I tell you what they will cause Liverpool all sorts of problems next week.

didn’t say I didn’t enjoy it. I’m frustrated we didn’t put our fully capable boot on the throat of a lesser team. We’re gonna get games like this if we don’t bother attacking the opposition

I dislike him as much as I disliked Mourinho in his chelsea days. Whiny bitch just about sums it up, the self entitled fuckbag

But we can’t do it all the time..we have to pick and choose, didn’t work this time but we didn’t lose...take it for what it is...it’s a marathon not a sprint after all.... I can honestly say that I have seen a lot better individuals play for Spurs...but this is getting very close to being the best team....and that’s what wins things

Oh FFS. We get 1-1 after a tough game where their keeper made some super human saves and the general consensus IS that we should hang our heads in shame, yet Liverpool should get credit for the exact same score to a LOWER placed team because they never stopped? But that only paints them in worse light doesn't it? This site gets on my tits more and more.

Last I checked we were supposed to be supporters. So support! We're still top and playing Liverpool in 3 days' time.

Not sure whether to winner this or funny it....but you get my drift...

 

[mightyspur]

Thats the title gone. Disgracefully negative by Jose

Title gone for Liverpool too then after their draw with Fulham never change Hank

 

[Trix]

Wasn't a good performance but I have to say I thought Palace were good. They will 100% take points off the other top sides if they play like that.

 

[Indisguise]

None of the teams that played in Europe last week have won this weekend so far. Arsenal and Leicester are the last two left that can end the trend.
