At long last we now have a 'schneiderlin/wanyama'-esque duo in midfield. Great foundation for the rest of the season, with VvD sticking around being the icing on the cake. We've arguably got the best back 6 group (outfield players) in the league right now. And, yes, I know I'm getting ahead of myself...

Full time. Phew

5 mins added time. WTF?

Some boos for VvD.... #facepalm

I'm falling in love with Lemina

Phew. Good to see you sir. Was starting to get worried there for a moment.

Is it me or is there a certain group of posters absent from this thread so far today...?

Soft goal from a Palace perspective but I'm not caring about that right now

Didn't someone post a stat the other day saying that, on average, the percentage of set-piece conversions across first class football as a whole is surprisingly low. Something like 3% IIRC? I accept that we might have a worse conversion rate than the average, but overall the impact may be relatively insignificant?

Is that because his crosses are poor or that the movement of our players in the box is poor...?

Slightly shocked by Glasgow's performance on this thread. He's been in such good form recently too. Here's hoping this is just a blip rather than a downward trend. If he's not careful the mods will cotton on to his game plan and no-one wants to see that. I sense that he's about to play the "post a different opinion, get called a troll" looking for sympathy card, which, in my humble opinion, would be the wrong move right now. Tense times indeed.

Ah, yes. Makes sense. I probably could've worked that out myself if I'd engaged brain cheers
