Things have to change .. Roy says he's proud of today’s performance, one shot on goal in the 87 th min. The team are so defensively set up I doubt if we will ever score again. CB and CW are given new contracts. We have Max and Victor no where to be seen, whilst Schulp continues to mascaraed as a footballer. Wilf has fallen out of love with Roys tactics much like the fan base. We may get 40 points and stay up but this is like going back to the days of Trevor Francis .. ffs Roy do something positive....

According to Roy we had a fully fit squad but none of Sakho, Meyer or Wickham were even on the bench. Not happy.

I have always defended Roy but I have had enough myself. We have absolutely no creativity in midfield. I’d just be happy to see any sort of a change at this stage. Those last 2 games have been horrific. The problem is we are all presuming that Meyer and Camarasa would be able to make that difference. I have see enough of Meyer to tell me that he is not good enough for this league so then it’s Camarasa and we have no idea what is going on with him. I think he was just bought in case of emergency as we signed no one else. So if it’s not those 2 who start who do you put in ? I honestly think Roy’s hands are tied at the moment because our squad is threadbare. When I get frustrated I scream for changes but we actually have no one to make a difference.

Roy might like it, but the football is appalling, for goodness sake get a Centre forward or play one, no one wants to watch this rubbish, at least have a go!!!

Why the hell Roy didn’t have Wilf swap to the right today I’ve no idea. JA in a 451 he saw nothing of the ball . Either go back to 442 or f it 352 with Tekkers and JA at least there may be a small chance of getting the ball in the box. Edited by kev64 (09 Nov 2019 7.52pm)

Many make the assumption that players like Meyer and Camarasa are not good enough because, in the case of Meyer, he has not really impressed to date or because they maybe have not shown in training. My problem with Roy is he tries to shoehorn players to his system and then jettisons them if he believes they don’t fit the mould. I heard an interview with Pulis (boo,hiss!) where he said his policy was to look at the players available at Palace and then devise a way to play that would suit them. This surely is a sensible and practical approach. Roy’s methods means he sometimes uses square pegs in round holes e.g Mcarthur on right of midfield, Schlupp in central midfield or the immobile Benteke as a lone front man with no crosses to attack. I know Roy is vastly more experienced than me, but as a football watcher of many years I can’t understand this
