Zatman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Yaya Toure is an absolute disgrace. End of the half rather than run with the ball or break a sweat and run at people, just lashes it into row Z. Shot was never on, just a bone idle player going through the motions. a disgrace to the club and fans. sure he will bang in a goal at home to villa or a hull but against the big boys or tough games he goes AWOL. Its as predictable as anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Palace have been so lucky 2 years running that they've changed the manager when they looked dead and buried and the new guy clawed them out of it. Maybe next year they'll finally go. Cracking finish that. Yes top finish on his weaker foot. Honestly think Palace haven't been good tonight, they have been lucky. On another night it would be 5-2 City. Edited April 6, 2015 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe next year they'll finally go. Cracking finish that. Yep think they will. Pardew is an impact manager. Look what he did with Newcastle. In his first full season they came 5th. Then the next season they came 16th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Remember when Palace came to VP before Pardew was appointed. They were dire. Had absolutely no threat going forward for the entire game (just like us). Pardew has done an incredible job. Palace have a good squad actually, to me it's as good as the one Pardew had at Newcastle. Well drilled defence, good balance in midfield with battlers like Ledley and McArthur and great pace with Zaha and Puncheon. They had a problem upfront but Glenn Murray has made a difference since he came back from loan. Not amazing but enough to stay up comfortably at prem level.

Will they be able to keep hold of the likes of Bolasie though? why not? he is a hot and cold player who can have a stormer or be anonymous. For me he is no different than N'zogbia at Wigan (same goes for Puncheon and Zaha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anybody EXPECTED Pulis to do as well as he did. Similar with Pardew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 said it before but with all the money they have spent only Aguero or Silva would get near a Bayern, Real, Juventus, Barcelona, Chelsea or PSG of this world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 City 24 shots on goal compared to 5 by Palace Only 4 on target according to BBC. The reality is Man. City's league results since the new year have been by and large wretched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toure maybe a year ago. Kompany when he was at his best, but the rest of them I don't rate. They really have wasted a lot of money Edited April 6, 2015 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
