A good performance, but not 2 goals better by any stretch. Wayne saved us on 2 occasions, De Gea not really troubled. Kouyate, PVA and Townsend lack composure in front of goal.
Sakho and Tomlins were excellent again, our best centre half pairing in years.

I still cant believe Lindelof beat jordan ayew with a bag leg .

oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton.

Does a point away from home get any better than that? If we had taken all 3 who would say “we didn’t deserve it”

Get a striker in January and we will climb away from trouble, we’ll done lads for a gritty performance...

The best thing from the game today was not the point, welcome as it was , but the fact that we did not get beaten in the dying minutes of the game after putting in a great performance. From all our recent games we have played wel and got kicked in the teeth in the dying moments which must have gradually knocked back the teams confidence. This result today more than anything will have fully restored our beliefs and confidence to build over the coming fixtures COYP

Hennessey did have a blinder (as I pointed out before, MotM definitely) and if we'd done Man U 2-0, even if they were having a bad day, adding the hypothetical goals (the only ones we have these days unfortunately) to the performance of the rest of the team would have been a thrashing as far as I'm concerned, I don't think many on here would disagree.

To say that if we'd won we would have "nicked it" shows far too much respect for the way Man U played today and is pretty insulting to Palace but that's all moot anyway because we can't hit a barn door with a banjo at the moment so we're going to struggle to beat the s***test of teams, let alone the so-called elite.

Bangell - If Camus wrote The Myth of Sisyphus today, it would be about Jason Puncheon eternally trying and failing to pass with his right foot.

Great result and we are hard to beat. But unless this group of players find a way of keeping their nerve in front of goal when the big chance comes their way we’re going to be in serious trouble.

was a problem last season when we were creating far more chances A lot being made of the need for a striker but we lack quality in the final third generally.
