Jesus some of you lot have incredibly low standards. No wonder we're always in the s*** every season and don't kick on when theres no pressure from the fans to achieve anything more than knocking about with the dross. Unlucky for 4 games my arse, we've got bods in wrong positions everywhere, can't take the 1-3 chances we get a game and are a shambles at set pieces at both ends. Still though, there was some effort so all is well apparently. Can't criticise your well paid strikers for not scoring from 5 yards or you're not a better fan... 8 points in November man, how is that acceptable

So we also missed him when prior to his operation he was woefully out of form? What we miss is an effective goalscorer rather than Benteke, the two are different Originally posted by Bullhorn76 We definitely miss benteke all over the pitch , that was benteke,s position that Ayew was taking in front of goal and I’ve even seen benteke clear them off the line a few times before at close range Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Roy's way past his best now sadly. It is incomprehensible to me that some fans blame the manager when it is obvious why we are failing. Anyone see Sam Allardyce speaking? His reasons for leaving were about Parish but he wouldn't say why. Sound familiar? There is only one man to blame for this mess.

I can stomach losing to Spurs and the like but sadly we lost to Southampton and Wolves at home as well! We can't beat the big teams and we can't break down the lesser ones. We are in the proverbial!!!!!!! We did okay yesterday overall and there were some good performances and cameos but we just cannot score goals and ultimately this may cost us our place at the to table. It also puts immense pressure on the rest of the team as they know that they cannot afford any mistakes otherwise we lose. Tomkins looks properly injured and Kelly was at fault for their first header yesterday but special mention goes to Ayew for cowardice and bottling it for their goal. I never want to see him in a Palace shirt again. Luca balled him out for not even attempting to head the ball and rightly so. Send him back to Swansea right now!!! Townsend who I always have a go out had a top game yesterday and just ran and ran and Kouyate is starting to pay off as well. Right now pro rata we will finish the season on 26 points so for those of you who think we are doing okay best you get your heads out of the sand!!

I understand the Americans's investment is in the stadium so the money for the new stand should come from them. The premier league money is for our investment in the squad. At this moment our priority should be retaining our premier league status.

Originally posted by michaelpearce no he took a touch defender come in which means he must get the shot away, he is not messi and the keeper saved it which happens to the best,look at it again and did you see his face at the end he was hurting Actually Sorloth showed he was great with his feet today. Which is something Benteke isn't. The lad needs several games a full 90mins and IN position. He'll come good.

Willo South coast - west of Brighton. 11 Nov 18 12.11pm
Once that goal went in yesterday, one all felt that only a successful penalty would see us score and I felt the same at the Wolves game when we went 1-0 down. Supporters fear the worst when we go behind because of our lack of goalscoring and whilst Hodgson puts on a brave face for the cameras and tries to sound positive with his equivelant of "It will be alright on the night" supporters are not so sure.I heard a great deal of disqiuet after the game yesterday with ordure very much in evidence.
