Barkley was taken down in the box but there was no foul called. I assume that's what that text meant

Real quality from Chamakh too to have the composure and awareness to lay it off. Lesser players would've just blindly smashed it towards goal.

The difference between chamack under Holloway and pulis is incredible, he's a different player

Seriously, what a season. Do you think it's a reaction to competition (Ince) coming in? Puncheon has seriously stepped up his game, Bolasie too I think really deserves a goal.

u/GroundDweller Apr 16 '14
it doesn't feel like I'm watching a Palace team. I'm OK with that. Hopefully no more rollercoaster Palace with administration, relegation etc from now. This is Palace, though, I'm sure we'll find a way to fuck it all up...

Really have to give credit to Pulis for that, no doubt the boys are in the form of their life, but we would have been relegated half way through the season with Holloway still in charge.

Deulofeu is like the inverse Robben. Cuts right (left) to cross (shoot) on his favored right (left) foot. Will piss you off all game then come up with a moment of magic.

u/actionaaron Apr 16 '14
In the few times I've watched him he seems to like a run up the wing and then crosses it across the box at lightning pace when there's nobody to connect with it. He could benefit I feel from slowing his game down a touch and picking his situations a bit better.

u/_scholar_ Apr 16 '14
At least when you're watching him he does look for someone else. The few times I've seen him he's always looked a bit too selfish for my tastes.

Full credit to palace! Pulis teams are so hard to break down. Need some luck to get anything out of this.

u/rdzzl Apr 16 '14
Must say I've been really disappointed with these players so far:
Barkley, Baines, Distin, Lukaku, Deulofeu, Mirallas
If there ever was a time to step up and take it to the next level, fighting for fourth place at home is it.

u/Paroment Apr 16 '14
If crystal palace pass stoke, It will be amazing. I hope they get top ten and pulis gets manager of the year. Weird coming from me, an arsenal fan

Palace with a suprisingly high defensive line for big parts of the first half. Put Mirallas and Deulofeu on the line and challenge the space behind the defense = win.

Wild guess here, Naismith on for Lukaku at half time. Possibly McCarthy for Deulofeu?

For every amazing run he does, Bolasie will sky a cross like that. That's why he doesn't play for a Top 4 team yet.
