Sorry. That quote smells of arrogance. The last time I looked we were also of the same level. I have watched Palace a few times and have been impressed . Solid and creative. Next year, assuming we make a couple of good signings we should be looking to win these games. Home bankers ? That's stretching it alittle.
-
Spot on. Until we have the players who are more physical we will struggle against teams like palace.
-
I think Palace are an excellent team. We had plenty of the ball but made stupid.passes. nakamba and mcginn more.guilty than most. I suspect Gerrard is waiting for a strong central midfielder before ih plays emi and Phil together
-
I agree same smith problems. When you say we dont have the fight I'm not sure I agree. It's simple mistakes, and ability only. But he needs to shore things up next gaame
-
This is a huge part. We compete well then give away a ridiculous goal. The other teams then sit back, we make an error and they hit us.on the break. Midfield stability so important and I can only see a transfer window sorting that
-
Well we will. A defensive midfielder, a good one, solves so many problems. Clearly watkins and McGinn are not top 6 quality. They need replacing too
-
He is out of his depth on a possession team. Great when we have to win the ball back. Not a long term option for me
-
Yep. Gerrard alluded to that in his interview. They are technically better than us and the players gave them too much respect
-
To be fair we did against Manchester United. I think we have fight in the team, we lack confidence going forward as players like McGinn and watkins are not technically good enough. As a result we are more.withdrawn knowing the ball will change ha ds quickly
-
If we revert to a 4 2 31 we can get coutinho buendia and Bailey in that starting team
-
Do you think we could play 4 3 3 with buendia in middle 3 and couthino in forward 3 or the other way round
-
Agreed. Bench is the best place for them. But we.need.to replace them first.
-
I agree, but they only leave when we find better players. That's the tricky part
-
Yep i agree with the signings. We can raise a lot of money if needed. Sell Luiz targett trez Keinan ings and spend it all on a DM and striker
-
True but it would stop us being so easy to go through. Hopefully!
-
Yes. He would. We would win the ball back quicker and have more.possession which should.equal more opportunities
-
True but without a defensive midfielder we are going to slip up in many games. Not much anyone.can do
-
Exactly this. Let's not.overact. on another day we score first
-
I agree Nakamba is not the answer but he is the sticking plaster we need right now. Long term We need a big strong ball winner there. Unfortunately watkins mcginn and luiz dont offer enough when we are in possession of the ball. It's a tricky problem to solve
-
I'm pretty sure(without looking at stats) that nakamba best results were under gerard. He was a different animal . Under smith he was clearly told to stay out. Under gerard he was told to win the ball. That's what we miss. Luiz is not a DM
-
Is it fair to say we have suffered significantly since nakamba got injured. We are dying for a DM.
-
It's both actually. We need a beast in the middle to win the all back. We just dont do it. We also need players who are technically gifted. At the moment mginn and watkins look miles away from being gifted and subsequently lose the ball.
-
Luiz was awful as a DM. We need a monster in there . Hes not that player. If we change him for bissouma the problem is solved and we can look forward to europe
-
I was thinking about who we could sell to raise funds and on the list is targett, trex, el ghazi, luiz, ings it Watkins, davis. 90 million there at least. We wont miss them if we get a striker and DM
-
He puts his body on the line but was going for everything, winning nothing and leaving huge holes behind him. Naive. Calm down tyrone
