MC look awesome when they go forward. They could have had four goals.

You see Benteke's penalty? Knew he was shit at them. Hate it when players take penalties like that. Hodgson threw him under the bus after it, he isn't staying at Palace much longer.

Give them what we paid and I think we can get him back provided we go up. Stupid bastard should never have left but I understand why he did.

the only way to beat city, (or the easiest way to beat city i should say) would be through playing very straight forward, physical, counter attacking football. you know Pep is going to want to hold a lot of the possession but a lot of the time they do that outside of the last third of the pitch. that means if you can strike first and keep the pressure on them they will have to push forward more than they're used to.

obviously it's easier said than done but it's not what i saw us wanting to do. it's a shame we had to lose to such horrendous goals. City could've not scored at all as easily as they could've scored 4, we just decided to not defend yet again. i'm very disappointed in the club.
