I agree with your sentiments about doing everything you have got to keeping a goal out, but having only one player doing it doesn't help. The defenders we have are taking the piss, with the possible exception of Delaney and he has been poor of late, are the like a punch of wet lettuce, turning their backs like little girls when the ball come near them.

We could have had Buffon at his best on Saturday and we would still have lost. Possibly only 2-0. I've said for a very long time that Hennessey is not good enough to be a PL keeper. He has been inconsistent throughout his career and some of the basic goalkeeping errors he makes in games (many which don't lead to goals) is scary. AM was worse. Speroni is not the answer to our problems, not long term anyway, and I am not sure how he would have dealt with the first goal (hardly his strong point). I'd say we have the worst goalkeeping options in the PL. It would be a problem if we were losing 1-0 or drawing games - when you are losing 4-0 at home to the bottom of the table team then it isn't just the GK that is the issue.

How about I tell you how we did since he came to the club? First season he restored pride in the team. Second we were promoted. Third stayed up. Forth stayed up. This season he's gone and we're pretty much pinned on for relegation. Next question? Anyway, this isn't about him it's about how s*** Hennessey is. You can't see that either though. Edited by Brentmiester_General (06 Feb 2017 10.44am) That can be applied to lots of players. The issue is he wasn't replaced. Jedi like Souare gets better the longer it is since he played. As for my view on Hennessey you clearly haven't been paying attention

Still going at Rangers. Granted a Championship level club in a poor league, but still playing.

The only time the ball came to him was when it was effectively knocked out of his hands by Jones' challenge. As for the front page article on this site - hardly evidence that would stand up in a court of law. So all 'bar two or three' can see the problem - why then have successive managers kept him in and not brought back 'crowd favourite' Speroni, or do the managers know less than you?

Best BFS sells you fast very fast!!
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

If Speroni isn't ready to play or considered good enough, he wouldn't be on the bench.

According to former ref Graham Poll it was a foul on Hennessey, yet no Palace player appealed. Once again not got the balls to stand up for ourselves. Edited by Dangermouse (06 Feb 2017 3.50pm)
