    Final ball needs to be looked at. Have squandered a fair few.

    So yeh... Shame it wasn't Soldado going to Toronto. Getting fed up of him at this stage.

    Thank god he's on his way, really? Soldado couldn't pick up the clap at this stage, Ade isn't exactly prolific. Unlikely we'll sign anyone, therefore leaving us short of options.

    Brutal first half, gotta cut that out. Happening far too often. Bentaleb reminded me of Carrick today.

    Good win,two good goals and could have been more but the performance could have been a lot better also,we were lucky not to concede one near the end of the game,I think the last four corners Palace got they won them all in the air and got headers in,glad we weren't playing a good side today.

    You what??? :eek:
    Walker has been at sea throughout the season. He can't defend to save his life.
    Completely overrated as a football player.

    Rubbish talk,have you seen any Spurs games apart from today's? Walker has been our most consistent player this season albeit after a poor first few games.:(

    Seen plenty,just because i don't post regularly in this section doesn't mean i don't watch games.
    Anyone who thinks the guy has been "consistently good" this year obviously is not a very good judge of football.

    Anyone who thinks Naughton is a better footballer than Walker is away with the fairy's.

    Either way, glad to see we have a manager who is not afraid to pull Walker off when he's having a poor game.

    We've mostly only seen Naughton play LB. RB is his preferred position, if he got a run if games at RB he might turn out to be a decent player.

    I wouldn't say Walker has been one of our most consistent players all season, not by any stretch, but he's certainly much better than Naughton.

    Went over to this

    Shockingly bad performance. Eriksen and soldado were bloody awful , even though eriksen scored

    He was caught so many times in the first half it was horrible to watch

    I was crying out for Walker to be dropped last season but he's been much improved this season, barring today.

    He's still an accident waiting to happen but he gets away with bad defending most of the time cos he's so fast and strong. Certainly miles better than Naughton.

    Bentaleb had a good game and was unlucky not to get on the score sheet but why are we not playing Capoue when our defence is weak? He was immense v United, our best result under TS.

    I thought Bentaleb was possibly our best player yesterday.

    As did I. Still, not sure why Capoue isn't playing.

    Would you play him ahead of Bentaleb? Couldn't really play the pair of them.

    Maybe Bentaleb offers more offensively than Capoue? He certainly seemed to from yesterdays performance anyway.
