We can all have a go at Benteke but my goodness I thought Townsend especially in the second half was awful. I hope when Zaha is back that him and Eze play and Townsend gets the bench. Pope pulled of a great save from Benteke as well. At least he got it on target.

We just have to accept that we are a mediocre bottom of the table team.
Ageing players,lack of energy and reliant on Zaha.
It is no coincidence that we have lost 14 out of 16 games when Zaha has been missing.

We knew Benteke isn’t really the answer. Bats is rapidly showing he isn’t either. Well that’s our choices done!

Time waisting de luxe (how can the ref allow it when it is so obvious?), did Townsend hit a team mate with a pass in 2nd half, Ayew and Batman together is not working, good to see Clyne getting better and better.
But all in all, horrible performance from Palace (esp. 1st half).
Europe - forget it!!!

It’s performances like this which is why we are so so so far off being a top side. Burnley were awful today and had a huge slice of luck for their goal and we couldn’t reply. Pathetic really. Burley were there for the taking tonight and we failed. Awful performances all round. Batshuayi is so lazy, seems disinterest and I’m so so bored of him missing chances (or indeed when he does manage to get the ball in the net, being offside). Benteke is done. Two F**KING HUGE chances to rescue a point and failed again. We lacked any urgency and should be ashamed of ourselves.

Says it all. First half we looked like we were playing in slow motion. No urgency. Then it was headless chickens.

I think that was Kouyate actually, Benteke missed it, unless we are talking about a different save.

Had enough chances to get something out of that but fluffed all our chances.

Strikers need to take a look at themselves and improve.

Typical Palace to give Burnley their first win of the season [

Whenever any team is on a bad run or can't score, they look at the fixture list to see when they've got Palace so they know when it'll end.

Got what we deserved... When we're bad we really are bad!! Eze and Clyne the only positives.

It was always going to be a battle of who scored first tonight as both sides rely on that and then use their defensive qualities to defend the lead as we are both lacking in midfield quality to unlock defences.

I've yet to see anything this season yet to convince me Batshuayi will do anything for us...
Our passing and inability to retain possession was especially crap tonight.

Thank god we didn't have to pay £14.95 for that. Oh well on to Newcastle which really is a must win for me.

0 points against Burnley and Newcastle would be extremely disappointing

 


Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

There's a paradox with Benteke.
His touch looks poor and he appears lethargic.
However, we often look more dangerous when he is on the field because he occupies defenders and has a physical presence.
Our game doesn't suit Batshuayi, and Ayew is limited despite his sterling efforts last season.
We probably deserved a draw, but it was a patchy performance with lots of sloppy passing

Only scored 1 goal in his last 23 club games and that was against Hull.
He is not a good fit for our team.
