Having said all that, whilst i HATE BR13HTON there are times when you simply have to your hands up. They out palace'd us, doing what we do to others and the two goals were superb efforts. So they have the league bragging rites until next season.

I know I’m not allowed to criticise WZ but I think Roy took the wrong winger off. Brought Benteke on so we had 2 genuine strikers for the first time in ages and very time we got the ball we passed it to Wilf who tried to walk it into the net. We were rubbish down the left side today both attacking and defensively. Wilf and Townsend should've switched wings 2nd half, when we needed width to stretch their narrow system andros kept coming in off the wing because he only has ONE foot!!! So frustrating and played into their hands every time...

You can talk about tactics and team selection but I thought the biggest thing we missed today was luck. No way did Brighton deserve to score two goals today. They were far more lucky at the Amex than today's performance. Nothing wrong with their goals today, just poor defending by us, coupled with terrible team selection.

Awful performance by Palace today we were just so sloppy with the ball so many times we lost possession it was criminal. This home form is ridiculous. I would expect Roy, who has been a manager for about 40 years now, to be able to come up with a plan to win home games on a regular basis but we seem to get the same slow paced slow tempo dross every home game. The only time we look like creating anything is when Meyer comes on but a lot of the time it’s too late and the opposition are organised and see it through Our crossing and final ball is lamentable and whilst Zaha is great at beating players he is one of the worst for squandering possession by being too greedy. PVA what a crap player he has become while Michy looked like he didn’t give a f**k today.

Should have started with the same outfield that started at Burnley. Poor team selection and use of substitutes. Horrible day all round.

Brighton look a good football team compared to our one man effort. The deserved the win and though it hurts to say they are a better run and organised club than ours. We have been a shambles for 5/6 years now and under RH we have not improved one iota.

So you really think that based on their performance they deserved to score two goals (PS I was at the game)

I don't think they were any better than us. They just had the rub of the green. We weren't at our best for sure but thought we were the better team. That's taking nothing away from Brighton who took their chances.
