    Look at the positives, Clean Sheet :eek:
    There was a couple of more positives,Vertongen and Fazio seem to be forming a decent partnership in the centre of defence and Davies had his best game for us today I think, and Lloris was class again.otherwise it was a pile of dross.:o

    We actually played better under Sherwood? Were we to harsh on him cos he was a gimp? It all feels like the early 2000's.

    clean sheet at home to palace is hardly something to crow about but we are used to be served crumbs at the table these days

    Complete write off of a season again. We live in hope that it will just 'click' one of these days but that could be next September by the look of things.

    What? Against palace?! With a goal difference of -5. That's hardly a positive when we are at home.
    By all accounts we were lucky to hold on for a draw aswell! Sorry but I can't get excited about that. The worst thing about it is that seems to be our strongest team out there.

    My sarcasm was obviously lost on you.

    Our own goal difference is not much better :-)

    So little discussion about yesterday's match , it's painfully obvious that support is waning

    Wouldn't think support is waning, just disappointment.

    We all got excited after Everton , but yesterday was just appalling again, so many poor performances. No pace in the side at all, I hate seeing eriksen and lamela starting as the wide men, surely after Chelsea chadli deserved a start or even Lennon. The palace attacking players put our lot to shame.

    Just hope the manager has the chance to get rid of those he doesn't want and is allowed time to build his own team.

    Thursday is a nothing game, but a big week after that including Newcastle in ye cup, we need to improve quickly.

    Was at the game yesterday and it was awful. The crowd was silent from the first whistle and that anxiety seemed to make its way to the pitch. Lamela was shocking. What struck me was that the players didn't want to make themselves available for the ball for a forward pass. Yes the selection and positioning of some players was a mistake but they didn't want the ball. Soldado and Kane never moved once the midfield got the ball, hence the constant sideways and backward passing.

    I will hold judgement personally until Poch has a transfer window under his belt and see what he can do then but the omens aren't good. There seems to be something rotten at the core of the club and that responsibility lies at the top imo.
