A great point which we fully deserved, one thing is playing Arsenal, the other thing is you really need the officials to do their job. Today they were unbelievably bad.

To not keep up with play is one thing, to not refer to the linesman when the Palace players were saying Lacassette handled the ball was outrageous. Then not sending off the Arsenal full back who came on at half time for them. I counted 4 fouls committed by him before he was eventually booked, the first one was straight through the back of Wilf.

Then to compound a miserable performance, he flagged for an Arsenal goal kick when the ball ran off for a clear throw in. Martin Atkinson you had a stinker...

I saw something today which has been missing
Players calling each other out for bad play.
It looked like wilf called out luka for not clearing or passing at one stage.
Then luka called wilf out for not passing.
Personally i think its a healthy thing to do that to your peers as it can only help.
After that both played better.
Just an observation.

Best performance of the season so far and hopefully it will prove a turning point for us.

I was disappointed we didn’t win but would have taken a draw all day long before the match.

The points we have gained up to now have flattered us.

Hopefully, Roy will stick with this starting line up and formation and realise that we need to make good use of subs before the team is tired.

I agree that Luka had a bad game aside from burying the two pens. The free kick he gave away that led to the goal was awful.

Another unpopular opinion: I didn't think the ref was that bad. Yes, he missed a likely handball, but that was hard to see in real time. Unless he's sure, he can't call that.

Aside from that, he gave us two pens, which looked like obvious pens to me, but how many times have we been screwed out of obvious pens by other refs?

Like someone said, I half expected to see Wilf get booked for diving, since that's usually the treatment he gets from refs.

Wilf does so much better against top clubs because they aren't kicking him for 90 minutes. He actually gets space to do his thing.

Anyway, great performance today, but I'm frustrated that we don't play this well against Everton, Wolves, Southampton, Watford when we could pick up the 3 points.

2017 Feb. (Van Aanholt) Palace 1 - 0 Middlesboro
2018 Jan. (Sako) Palace 1 - 0 Burnley
2019 May (Batshuayi, Batshuayi, OG, Van Aanholt, Townsend) Palace 5 - 3 Bournemouth
2020 Feb. (Van Aanholt) Palace 1 - 0 Newcastle

Difficult to be too critical of that performance.
Lots of plus points and plenty of endeavour.
I do think we could have won the match and Arsenal did not convince, in particular defensively.
While Meyer did well, he did nothing to suggest he should be the first name on the teamsheet and he ended up,on the floor on a number of occasions with the physicality of the game.
I would like to see him further forward in attacking midfield as he does seem to be on the same wavelength as Wilf.

Luka may not have been at his best so far this season but he can never be accused of being 'lackluster'

Jimmy has been outstanding in doing what he has been asked to do in closing down opponents .

Sorloth had better improve or he wont get much game time

I agree the result should give us a lift for the next few games
