It's Palace..don't think they do 'worldies".

Strange transfer indeed, there must have been a plan for it at the time.

Why did he let us pay 12 million £ for him then, might as well have kept Gaston.

Looks remarkably like an article that some paper or other was running about 2 months back.

Many of us might drop Pellè but I doubt that he will be dropped..

In fact Jedinak is a very handy and underated player. They're not the same side without him.

There were plenty in defence when Berahino scored, just that one of them was way way too slow to close him down, 6 million £ totally wasted and still costing us.

Another Gary Puckett jobby then.

Get down there and scoop them up, must be worth a tenner each on Ebay.

Apparently our players need to be more ruthless in the box, not around it, in it. Explains everything I think.

So we apparently had 12 shots at goal of which only 2 were on target, 1 from Morgan and 1 from Pelle. All of the others were wayward, 3 from Mané, 2 from Elia, 2 from Morgan and 3 from others.

Don't think it's at all a case of being "scared", seems more like an instruction from the manager.

Spurs filching our head of recruitment must have really helped though. It's not only players that get knicked from us, head of injury management, head of recruitment, video analysts...all has changed in not so much time.

Probably won't happen that way anyway, can't go on for ever, we have to score sooner or later, perhaps a punt from long range, haven't had one of those for a while. If Toby is fit eough to play I expect to see a lot more composure at the back again and our wingbacks getting forward far more.

They're all good finishers in the box when they don't have top class defenders within 15 inches of them for the 90 minutes the game lasts. Top class strikers know how to create time and space, therein lies the difference between an Aguero and any Tom D*ck or Harry.

By scoring 2 goals in each of the games against Newcastle and Sunderland with their defences in meltdown. Great goal against QPR though but as we all know those bicycle kicks can end up in the net or row ZZ.

And the lack of anticipation from Gardos really.

Sunderland 2, Newcastle 2, QPR 1, West Ham 1, Utd 1, Everton 1..that's the total of his league goal scoring, in 4 cases out of 6 against some of the weakest defences in the PL, bloke is a bust we just need to accept that and move on.

Not so sure, the last 5 or 6 games have shown him to be a bit of a one dimensional thinker.

Doesn't get enough game time for us to be able to decide really.

Well whomsoever decided to pay 12 million £ for him must have been a bit of an admirer surely.

Well yes perhaps, JRod still hasn't donned his boots in anger and we're in March, the problem is there really. We punted on him being back a couple of months ago I expect and it didn't happen. When everyone else was scoring then the problem was veiled a bit but as there have been no goals from midfield or defence of late the true situation rears it's head again. Pelle isn't good enough and Long doesn't play enough.

I sometimes get the impression that Koeman isn't Long's biggest fan.

Absolutely, anyone want to try to name another PL striker who'd not have buried at least one out of the two.

Wasn't he only saying the other day that Top 4 was still a definite aim for us this season.
