Composure has been mentioned but for me it's a lack of confidence firstly.
Throughout the team when it comes to any real shooting opportunities nobody wants to have a go.

I seem to watch other teams each week bang in goals from shots or rebounds but not Palace. We still want to walk it in or try and score from a set piece or penalty.
Who do we have that's capable of hitting the target from 15-20 yards out? Or should I rephrase that who ever takes on a shot and actually hits the target from 15-20 yards out?
Andros-West Brom was probably the last time this year and that was a cup game.

A lot of that is tactics and lack of imagination.

The other thing is we don't really have players with brains you see this many times when things are not working they don't know what to do the same with when they get to final 3rd. (way around this is you have to drill things into people so it becomes natural like muscle memory this is the reason why we struggle to change style of football)

The club has not moved forward backroom setup is so important but we just keep bringing in people that have history with club that is pointless and when we do get some quality it is only due to the current manager bringing in couple of people which end up going when they do anyway.

What I couldn't work about the Townsend chance was that it was perfect for his strong left foot to just bend it along the ground into the corner.... For some reason he decided to try with his weaker right foot!!

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!!
