Puncheon has always frustrated me, but in the past just when I was ready to scream he'd play a great game and score or make goals. He hasn't done that for a long time now. In the last couple of seasons he has slowed games down, held onto the ball for too long and given away fouls in dangerous positions. Roy was brave enough to drop him and we never looked back. As much as I love his passion for the club, I don't think he's good enough for us anymore.

There is a strong rumour Palace are in for Jack Wilshire that would make a difference.

Could be just that a rumour.

What about Scott Dann then....is he ready to make a come-back?

Better get out czech book out then.

People are so quick to write players off.

JPs best days are behind him but we need 25 players. We didn’t have a full squad last season and were lucky to get away with it

He would make a good squad player, not least because the money to replace him could be better spent elsewhere. It is as much anoutbyhe bigger picture as it is individual players.

Aren't comments on court case allowed

Small fine - some community service (unpaid as if that mattered) and shown up as a prick for telling a bouncer to keep his belt and use it to buy a house

Is he still club captain?

Biggest laugh was his mate getting fined 1000 for taking pictures in court
