Quote from: legana on March 29, 2025, 01:52:37 PMAbsolutely no fight today. Don't mind losing but we've been so poor. The players have really let themselves down and the fans. Shambles.
I feel your pain, but I disagree. The only thing we've lacked is a presence in the box  and the ability to shoot from distance with strength and accuracy. Qualities CP have in abundance.
2-0 down at half time and , apart from a half arsed scramble from a corner, we haven't threatened to even look like scoring.

That isn't lack of effort...it's because we just don't have an answer to a low block. Huge effort the first 30 and out them under real pressure. Looked like we wanted it more than them.  As soon as they go one up they go even deeper and we just can't get through them. Not lack of effort. They've been way too good defensively for us.

Defensively we was dog 💩 Palace deserved it and Sess should have started absolute shambles of a performance 😆😆😆

We are chasing shadows. Palace tore us a new one today. I'm really beginning to think if Marco has the ability to take us further.

St Eve

I really thought we were going to Wembley. This is tough to swallow

Twig

Silva really has to figure how to beat a low block at home. We have been clueless all season against st this tactic and nothing has changed today. What's the definition of insanity? Well we are proving that point today.


Nero

What f me off is defenders that turn their back like Anderson did on their fist, youre on C70K plus a week take a ball to the stomach you might even see where its going and stop it,

I think you break these defensive blocks with effort.  Faster passing  , everybody making runs, moving constantly , switching players. If it was unbreakable,  Palace would be top of the league.

Exactly this. Killed as all season. Credit to Palace defensively as Glasner has over two games completely nullified all our threat but all he had to do was watch our games against the bottom 6. So clear how to stuff us.

Congratulations Palace more better than us all over the park enjoy Wembley. We have a bunch of players who cannot rise to an occasion. Thanks for nothing.

That is exactly what we tried for the first 30 minutes and it nearly paid off with the Muniz and AP chances. I believe Palace are the best form side in the league at the moment and have barely conceded a goal away in months. They were in the relegation zone in November. They are on fire. You have to give them some credit tactically/defensively. Sorry no way we lacked effort that first half. They actually looked rattled for 20 mins. Second half 11 men behind the ball and impossible to break down and then hit us on the break. We were poor and didn't find solutions to a low block yet again but the team were well up for it first half. Just done by a better team/tactics today and it totally sucks.

You genuinely think we've played well being 3-0 down?

Our approach play has been as good as ever, but the work on the final third has been abysmal. When you know that a cross is unlikely to be met by one of our forwards and that there are no forwards with the pace to run into space, what do you do? You could cut it back but our shooting from distance is poor. What I disagree about is that we've not fought for the ball. And we haven't been a
shambles. Palace were the best team, no doubt, but it was because they have fast athletic forwards who are not afraid to shoot.

Or if he has the personnel to do it.

Am really devastated by that today, but not 1st time we've seen that this season.20/25 mins we were playing some lovely fast crisp football. Go a goal then 2 down like that ripped us, game was over then. We passed back and sideways more in 3 mins in the second half than we did in the first half 25. Without knowing what plans or budgets are don't want Europe personally, be a right battle next season. Ya CP did well after that no doubt, but we left them off the hook
