Palace 0-0 Fulham - 23 September

[ChesterTheTabby]

The ref has lost control. How long before there is a red?

He's been awful.

[akf]

great contribution from andreas & raul! so close

[St Eve]

Nearly Raul. Just a matter of time

[ChesterTheTabby]

Pereira...  that's awfully embarrassing

[MisfitKid]

Nearly Raul. Just a matter of time

Soon please. 

[akf]

Pereira...  that's awfully embarrassing

or he was making commentary on the soft foul given just before...

[ChesterTheTabby]

Pereira...  that's awfully embarrassing

or he was making commentary on the soft foul given just before...

That's an optimistic view

[St Eve]

Pereira...  that's awfully embarrassing

Are you kidding. He almost broke his back with that slap!

[MisfitKid]

what happens when there is an actual "yellow" foul?  it's a Red?

[akf]

Pereira...  that's awfully embarrassing

or he was making commentary on the soft foul given just before...

That's an optimistic view

suspending my disbelief

He could've been killed!

[MisfitKid]

I am tired of bumble & stumble in the final third...

[ChesterTheTabby]

Very even game - fun to watch beating the period of flopping and referee losing control a bit

[SerbianLad]

Referee was completely sh*t.

Regarding Andreas' "incident", it was absolutely ridiculous, but I didn't mind it that much considering the terrible diving Palace did throughout the match.

I thought we played really well, our finishing could have been a bit better, but credit to Johnson as well, he made some fine saves. More of the same please.

I'd might swap Ream at half time, he's played really well overall in my opinion, but I worry about another Brentford situation, where he gets an early second yellow. Iwobi to come on for BDR at some point in time too, to freshen things up.

Why not just launch that one into their box at the end of time there??
dilly-dallying sideways and back when ya might as well just go for one last shot on goal before the break.

BDR off for Wilson or Iwobi for me. Been pretty anonymous, again I can't really blame Raul when he's getting very litle service from the 3 behind him. When he did get a chance he had a nice shot on goal but otherwise another quiet performance from our attack in general. We're better generally but not clicking really.

Jerome robinson probably should have done better when he burst through their midfield and found himself outside their box in no mans land and fumbled completely to work out what do with the ball. Sums us up a bit so far this season, pretty toothless but not exactly poor.

What time is Vini time this week?

[Rj Fulham]

Had better chances than this time last week which is a positive, just need a chance or two in the net.

Hopefully Iwobi and Vini can provide the same spark they did last week!

Agree - but i think he'll put Iwobi in for Reed, Wilson on as a supersub for BDR or Willian

I hope not. Iwobi isn't good enough defensively to play Reed's role in a game like this, in my opinion. Against teams like Luton, Everton, Sheffield United I'd consider playing him there, in a match like this I think it's way too risky.

[akf]

Must commend Diop's motivation to send the searching ball forward, but his accuracy leaves much to be desired

[St Eve]

BDR, Andre and Willian have been very quiet
