This isn't Palace and what in the world is van Aanholt doing? He's misjudging the ball and that's what led to the goal. They look like strangers again and very shaky in defense. Also very tentative in possession and sporadic in attack. Worst of all, they're boring. Total football. Total crap!

Its not the formation or style, just of passion and ability. So true. And we have a couple of passengers every week!

Wow! That was so boring to watch! I really hope this isn't FDB's master plan and the players are just failing to adapt to the new style! Because if this is 'the plan' I might find better things to do with my Saturdays at 3pm.
There are two kinds of person in this world: |

Holy s*** Benteke looked pissed, the rest of them dejected. Game over unfortunately, and I think faith in Franky lost by the players. Looking absolutely venomless in front of goal, defence has been okay despite some dreadful mistakes, but attack, and especially set pieces has been reminiscent of a deflated balloon. Yep, this looks like just the season before Benteke was bought. OK/acceptable defence but consistently being beaten by one goal due to toothless attack. Never mind Sakho, we need another striker now.

Get punch off, I'm sick of the sight of him. Get cabaye on. The players need a rocket up there arse at half time. Agreed. Need some passion, and Punch is worse than a waste of space right now.
We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football. |

I even saw Freeman shake his head! I see a team with no leaders no drive no will and no bloody urgency. Pass and move pass and move it's f,,,, easy in any formation. The fact is these players are not buying into this and it shows,

De Boer tactics crap. Team passion and urgency crap. Kelly defending that goal crap (but maybe caught cold). I cannot possibly see how you can dig Hennessey for that though. A low shot a foot out bottom corner. Come on. De Gea doesn't save that. Not often I quote myself to argue! Just seen the replay in the bar. Not corner, Hennessey's arm not fully extended. Don't blame anyone that says he could have done better on replay.

Tell Frank to f*ck off home for his dinner and let the players take over and least they know what system they would rather play. Parish has made a bad mistake here
