I thought Palace’s dogged and pragmatic approach completely nullified us last night. For ever one blue shirt there were three yellow in the right holes to stop us playing and we didn’t have an answer.
Countless times we had to go back because we seemed reluctant to stretch the play. When we played some good one touch stuff we looked promising but all too little to be effective. Notable that our best players or performers were playing large spells of the game man-for-man against full England Internationals and apart from some bright moments, it showed.
I felt we needed 7 or 8 points from this run of four games before we head to the Emirates. Still hope for that but last night we looked devoid of ideas. Not many positives although I thought Chaplin and Broadhead made a difference off the bench.

As I said on another thread a couple of Palace fans I know have been saying for a few weeks now, he's switched from an attacking style to 5 at the back, go for 0-0 and hopefully get a break away goal. But the feeling is that was because they've had a lot of injuries and he wanted to stop the rot of losing games. The return of Eze has helped with the break away goal approach. But both fans are expecting him to return to a more attacking style if they can move up the table - horses for courses and all that. |  | | |

I thought they were set up perfectly defensively. Pressed at the right time, didn't over commit and leave space. Our build up had to be perfect to get in behind the midfield and on the rare occasion we did, they've got 3 very strong defenders to recover. |  | | |
