This reminds me of a typical a cup tie against organised championship opposition
Hit us long and in the six yard box and when we have it stop us at all costs
Their the mist dirty team I've seen so far this season. Nothing over the top but consistently fouling
Palace have been boxing clever. For the first half if you went to ground the ref has given it pretty much, and they have been going down easy whereas we have been trying to stay on our feet. Commendable maybe but it is totally disrupting our rhythm and it's just putting us off enough.Replay at best now. Once we missed the sitter, then hit the post. Years of watching games like this and you start to think its not your day...again.
Cant see us scoring two in the 2nd half. Pardew's tactics wont let us, fouling us out of our natural rhythm and we seem to have been dragged into a fight as we are committing more fouls than we normally do too
Not sure about that one.Eriksen on for Dembele
Not sure about that one.
