We have a striker getting the hump because he didn't receive a pass. In my book that's good, shows willing and want. I would rather that than a striker that doesn't give a toss

Yeh Piss off, it's a forum, and if a couple of pr1cks want to stir sh1t between two players who had a scrap after the match and someone thinks they're talking sh1t this is where we can talk about it.

Yeh, that's right, we finally turn a corner and you pr1cks want to get on here and arouse disunity. Thanks.

Like many people on this forum I rarely agree with anything you say but the above is more ridiculous than normal. It wasn't HOL forum members squaring up angrily to each other but two of our own players so perhaps you should be addressing your daft comments to them and not to us and your reference to HOL posters being "pricks" says far more about you than anyone else

Surely the only prick in this thread is the person who wants to attack other forum members for commenting on an article in the media

There's literally no way you can know who or what he gives a dam about unless you've talked to him.

Not sure what you mean by slowing everything down. Thought he did alright today...couple of decent half chances with heads and a nice shot on the turn.

I think he did well yesterday and looked sharp. His problem (and Palace's) is that everything goes to him in the top third, so its easy for teams to double mark him or cut out passes

I think Benteke needs to show more spirit and skill. As for calling people pr#cks on this forum you need to give parchmore some leeway. He's deeply religious and Likes to save souls. So I'm sure he's remorseful about his actions and asking for forgiveness .

Actually it doesn't as it doesn't necessarily imply team togetherness as it could also be a purely selfish reaction

Benteke seems like he isn't a team player and doesn't give a damn about Palace. He's a massive sulker and thinks he doesn't score goals because his team mates are inferior.

In reality, his team mates don't pass because they're probably fed up with him slowing everything down. It was a mistake on Townsend's part but as the game finished with a Palace win this is just nonsense.

It's ashame that 30 million only buys you someone that only looks half interested when you directly put the ball on his head from 6 yards out.

Unfortunately though, Remy is a sicknote and wasn't on bench again today, I'm sure he'd be a better fit. We could also look at someone in the Andy Caroll mould if we stay up but obviously right now you have to go with Benteke over the likes of Frazier Campbell and hope he shows up occasionally.

What's it like being a mind reader? I'd love to be able to do that.

Precisely! Yet if you were to believe half the posts on here, Benteke apparently doesn't give a damn. I seem to remember he received a yellow for an over-exuberant goal celebration as well; he certainly has a funny way of showing his disinterest

Nothing to see here.

It was great to see that the players were sufficiently fired up to actually care. It was also great to see some passion in a Palace shirt, and it was also great to see a system that seemed to suit the players and Allardyce.

I would guess the players realised the importance of the win, and if the tension overtook Benteke, then good on him.

Now all we need is a couple of penalties against West Brom and things will be looking up!!
