Same sh*t, still can't sort the defending out which caused the free kick in the first place. The WCC title sh*t we have to carry around for 4 years is a commentators dream, they will have a field day every time we concede and lose.... anyway lots of time left to turn this around. Lucky to get away with that technical foul...

Probably stop with this stupid passing around the back bo**ocks again now.

Sutton is on acid or something.

‘Is he even part of the wall?’

Imbecile

No keeper was stopping that

I reckon Sanchez knew it was gonna be disallowed so just didn't bother making the effort

f**k sake we need to get a grip here

United get Neville, Liverpool get Carragher, Arsenal get Smith, we get Sutton, who clearly f**king hates us.

Being a bit crowded out and losing the midfield battle. Need to get the ball wider.

could have scored again ffs

they're all over us like a rash

Like I said same sh*t as last season here

Because we played him without wingers abd everyone realised he is Gary Pallister playing as a centre forward if he has to think

Was going to say the same thing Loz. If he had to take a penalty he would have ran up and headed it.

The forum didn't need a pre-season. Straight back on the moan fest.

Because he was found out when he signed for us

Fernandez having one of those games where he is bullied out of the game.

Great ball from Wharton. We need to get control, here.

Wake the F up

Blocked the middle sit on Caicedo. That is how team defended last season and it was very difficult

So we've completely reverted to type, same slow methodical build up as last seasons struggles, same inverted full backs clogging up space, very little movement up front.

Sigh.

Don't understand this bo**ocks at the back again, we never saw it in the WCC or the pre-season games now we've fallen back in the way we played last season...fcuking sh*t until the last few games.

The rule is you can't be within 1m of the wall, the ref even explained it. That "goal" was exactly the sort of thing the rule was brought in to stop.

They've just explained it on TV now, watch Sutton go silent and refuse to admit he was wrong.

Crouchy would've been on the end of that chip, there. Unlucky, Cole.

Can’t do anything else to be honest, they are so narrow and packing bodies in the middle

Yep what's wrong with Nevin?

I thought that was very smart by Palace and obviously something they've been working on, but that was just too blatant for it to stand.

We haven't started well at all, so let's hope that can be a turning point.

He fell apart after the first game where he was put through one on one and completely f**ked it up. Complete waste of space after that. Watching him try and understand where to go when our better players were on the ball was hilarious, he had absolutely no idea.
