I do not care what any of the so called ''Pundits or Klopp'' says this was a great tactical victory for CP and shows what a modest team can do with the right heart and fitness against the big pockets of the wealthier clubs. So Klopp, thinks they should have won 4-1 based on chances created, he has of course blanked out of his mind the fact that we could have been three nil up at HT and with our second half chances, using the klopp formula we should have one 6-4. Sadly for Liverpool its only goals scored that count. I watched it with a Liverpool supporter at a party. He was damning of the Liverpool performance and especially critical of Virgil van Dijk, who he said was is an arrogant ...and an absolutely useless captain. Who am I to disagree!

Doesn't it annoy you when they keep going on about Clyne playing "against his old team". We are his old team! Liverpool were one of his previous teams!
Following Palace since 25 Feb 1978 |

Tremendous performance and deserved 3 points. We looked a team with real technical ability. Instead of hoofing it, it was played into Wharton or Hughes who are both comfortable on the ball. We all of a sudden seem to have real depth in CM. Nice selection headache when Ghehi and Doucoure return. When we were under the kosh, we rode our luck a bit, but the passion and fight was there. Wharton is a serious player and I've no doubt will be in England's World Cup squad in 2026. He's got it all. Mateta is new man. Hold up play is a different level, puts himself about, looks physically tough and can now finish. Munoz gives us a bite and can get forward well with pace. Andersens head was a magnet. the makeshift back line were awesome. I've been critical of Mitchell lately, but his performances as a wing back are certainly improving, his attacking play is far better than it was 2 months ago. Credit must go to the coaches for that. I still think he remains a weak link and has a way to go to reach Munoz's standards. Henderson is a worry for me. He made some good saves, but it was the incident at the end of he first half when he didn't come for a ball which was clearly his which almost resulted in a goal. Johnstone has to get the jersey back when fit. Just has more presence about him. The worry is we'll lose key players in summer. I'm fairly certain we'll lose at least one of Eze/Olise and one of Ghehi/Andersen. We need a strong finish to the season under the new manager to convince the big names we're worth staying at. We'll need to show ambition to keep everyone happy. We're so close to being a very good side. Great post & I agree, except for comparing Mitchell with Munoz. You have to remember, Munoz never played under Hodgson, Mitchell did, for a lot of seasons. He is having to completely re-learn his basic skills coached out of him. Give the lad a break, please.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

A fantastic performance and the proof that we have a manager who's got what it takes. All who played were great. COYP!

, I think you’re right, there can’t have been many of us who wasn’t expecting the usual late collapse, but there did seem to be a bit more ‘thou shall not pass’ about us this time and we rode our luck a bit, but as you say we’ll take it and we deserved it
