Totally agree. Gives players freedom to cripple opponents without a red. Madness. Why change a sensible rule?

Benteke always waits for keeper to move and then just rolls it in. He moved very late so giving Benteke a problem He should have whacked it as hard as possible.

Decent half. Chasing down. Couple of wee indecisive moments in the defence but kind of to be expected considering how many goals we have leaked off late. But very encouraging half. Down side. Benteke....3 good chances, one a pen and not one goal. Header into the ground. Should have shoot but didn't. I hate to say this but from watching him he strikes me as a Heskey mark two. Hope to be proved wrong as 30 odd million is a lot of money to waste for Palace, he will score goals but he misses loads of chances as well. Annoying to me. Think if a chance trade him in for another forward if the chance arises. I wouldn't be to upset. He is lazy as well. Can see why Klopp got shot. Only downer thing to say. The rest is looking decent so far. Don't make yourself look as feeble as Benteke's 1st half penalty. Did he get booked for being lazy?
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

Benteke looks like the only one without any confidence. Watch Sam rattle him and we'll see a totally different striker in the second half (fingers crossed)!

Just think there are far better players around for that dough. Like I say....happy to be proved wrong. But from what I have seen. Not worth the dough.

If that is the case then that is a mad rule change, so Gomes could have two footed studs up kicked Benteke in the head rendering him unconscious and the maximum he can get is a yellow card because it's a penalty? Ridiculous. I'd imagine dangerous play is still a red regardless. Not sure Gomes' challenge was that bad.

Watching on TV and good to see that we are also marking well when on the defence - picking up any loose men at the back
