I predicted a City win, with two late goals. Glad to say I was wrong about the result, but the late goals are a cause for concern. Roy's habit of no subs or late subs or the wrong late subs is something he should look at. And why should Pierrick have come on ? Is it just to make a substitution for the sake of it ? Professional football players are very capable of playing 90 minutes.

In light of today's brilliant performance at the Ethiad perhaps some of the posters slagging off Roy and his tactics will eat some humble pie!!! I don’t think the Roy haters will ever be happy.

Of all the things that concern me about Palace at the moment Roy's subs aren't one. Also, off the top of my head we've won points late in the game against West Ham twice, Man Utd and City. Roy, Ray and Dean Kiely between them have forgotten more about top flight football than any of us know.

I don't care how much football hey have forgotten, I bet you any amount of £s I have forgotten more. or have I got the wrong end of the stick.

Only Wolves have won more points from a losing position than Palace. it's great to see our lads keep going to the end.

Roy's habit of no subs or late subs or the wrong late subs is something he should look at. Why are they ? We were playing one of the best teams in Europe, away from home, and after defending heroically conceded to one of the best strikers in the world. Why should Pierrick have come on ? We needed someone with physical presence to hold the ball up, not an inexperienced rookie. I'm glad you somehow found it in yourself to acknowledge it was a great result, must have been hard for someone that likes to otherwise just post in a negative way

8 points and +5 goals over same time last year. My only concerns are with obstacles to infrastructure development and Roy's advanced age. I will yell and whinge when watching a match but truthfully I can have no complaints about what is happening on the pitch

Not even at amateur level you will find a manager who plays an absolute beginner at the topic moment of the match away against a much stronger team.

Comments regarding Roy's substitution criteria, coupled with a lack of chances for youth, are common on this board.

Tosun didn’t look as tired as Ayew so if he was going to make any sub I thought a better choice would have been Ward for Ayew who was by that point playing almost a defensive midfield role anyway.

It ain’t pretty but it’s damn effective for scraping draws and one win in three average which is all you need in this league to stay up.
