Back from Chelsea and had to post

What has happened to our squad? Zaha looks frustrated playing right wing… schlupp is just absolute dog s**t too scared to make a forward pass… this playing out from
the back is becoming painful to watch week in week out half the time the ball ends up with the opposition before we’ve even made it to the halfway line!

Ok we had a couple of decent chances today but I can’t for the life of me understand why we insist on playing like Man City by trying to pass the ball into the oppositions box… we really need somebody who’s not scared to take a shot like Decoures today!

SP,in his infinite wisdom,seems to think we need a couple of loan signing and everything will come up smelling of roses,when we are now,given our forthcoming fixtures,in serious trouble and probably,favourites together with Bournemouth,to go down.

I know we have limitations, so there is no perfect fix within the squad.

But I think Hughes deserves to play instead of Schlupp. If we had 2 Doucourés we would have a chance of finding some authority in midfield. Hughes seems to he the nearest fit in that regard.

I also think we need to persevere with either Eduoard or Mateta as a focal point. I don't get what they've done so horrendously wrong compared to everyone else. I know they have underwhelmed, but my God, so have the alternatives. Today I was wondering whether Edouard was actually signed to replace Wilf, given his preference for the inside left position.

I thought we were okay today. But let's be honest, when that goal went in, did a single Palace fan genuinely believe we could equalise? I used to be so confident that we had it in us to give a bloody nose to the elites, but now I have so little expectation.

I'm really frustrated by Eze. He seems to get the fans highest rated player on BBC Sport for some unknown reason. He just contributes so little.

So many creative players but no interest in moving the ball forward with any type of urgency.

I am becoming reconciled to relegation as much as l don't wish it on us,l think the manager has lost his way completly,why we set up as we do with no centre forward just signals to the opposition we are running scared every match,this continual prattling around in our own half thinking we are man city is not working,we can't hit a barn door,Ayew might be lively but doesn't matter how much running and chasing you do it don't equal goals,we need some battlers in midfield,not Milo or schlupp they are both clapped out,if we don't get a grip pdq we are gone and that will be a disaster! It is so very disappointing after all the hard work that has gone before!!!

Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
