Pamplemousse

Out for 12 weeks, so he might not even make the return fixture at the end of December

Martina starting at Old Trafford. Should be interesting viewing.

I do wonder if he is suffering from a lack of confidence

Some were linked with him in the summer before we signed him anyway

Cheers. Didn't sound too loud on the TV, only a few murmurings. The reaction at home will be much more interesting.

Watching it on the TV, I thought it was the Palace fans booing Tadic as he was going off (they had been heckling him before that), can anyone at the game confirm it was our end booing VVD or not?

I'm off to this one. Last saw us play Man Utd in 2005, FA Cup game, and we got stuffed 4-0. I think we'll lose, but I'll judge things on whether or not there is an improvement in the performance compared to the last home match, which was unacceptable in every area.

Heisenberg should be along any minute now to tell us how we should be more like Everton

Quieter too because the WUMs can't wind up people as easily. And yes trousers, I know that there are no trolls on this forum ;)

We dominated and deserved the win, without playing that well. Big improvement needed for Saturday.

How long before someone claims we should bring him back?

Of course there are. We'll finish in the top half again, no problems. One defeat and suddenly the whole forum claims we're in a relegation battle

Don't say Palace aren't up to much before we've played them!

We're in the away kit.

Not sure who has performed worse, Everton or Heisenberg

Some bad news - Robert Madley is the referee

Great news - Lawrenson has predicted a Palace victory http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41243874

Laughable that people were claiming that they would make the top 4. Their strikers are awful, possibly worse than ours.

Lovren howler, and Sevilla go 1-0 up at Anfield. Lol

http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/15531550.Fans_banned_after_pitch_invasions_at_Saints_game/?ref=mr&lp=10#comments-anchor A silly thing for them to do, but a ban of three years seems a little excessive to me.

Our badge does not need changing, leave it be.

I like this new Heisenberg. Long may it continue

Hodgson has done pretty well in the Premier League (apart from Liverpool), kept Fulham up and did well at West Brom

To be fair to Palace, they gave it a good go. The performance merited at the very least a point, and it was only a stupid error in the first few minutes that cost them.

Forster needs dropping. I hoped that him not making the England squad would kick his arse into gear but seemingly not. Shots like that should be routine for a Premier League goalkeeper. Unacceptable.
