Palace roller coaster
He gives 110%
Wand of a left foot
Good squad on paper
Squeaky bum time

"This is a big club and we deserve success"

No you don't. The size of your club is irrelevant and you don't deserve success you earn it. Fans of clubs like Newcastle, Sunderland and even Spurs think they have a god given right to success. Get over it if your team is good enough the success will come.

Won three games on the bounce
Won three games on the spin
Won three games on the bubble

Obviously not Palace related due to the "winning three games" bit

thought this alluded to the murky world of Match fixing - and paying the goalie to let in shot(s).

Yes, anything along the lines of 'great left foot', because pundits only seem to use this line to refer to left-footed players, when it should relate to right-footed players who are surprisingly good with their weaker foot. Nobody ever says 'wand of a right foot' - it's equivalent to saying 'he's good at kicking the ball'.

Hit the back of the net

Well no. Because he would have to go round the goal and kick it from behind. Otherwise it is the front of the net?

 


When they kick out your front door. How you gonna come ?

“He’s gone and given the ball away.”

Where’s he gone?
Who gave him permission to leave the pitch?
Or to give the ball away?
WTF?
