yea, i think the players have given up. theres a visible lack of intensity.
yep, the idiot thinks just throw on 4 forwards is the answer, just get the ball up there and hope it works, dont worry about the quality of service. fucking clown.

I'm not an Ange cultist but I do want him to succeed. I think our performances this season have actually been quite consistent and on the whole very good but yeah when it's bad it's very bad.
Playing this way needs everyone to be on it and playing with intensity. Today we had none and it was the same 2nd half v Brighton. Both games came after Thursday night games so I wonder if it is possible to play his style twice a week. That been said we have been rotating a lot in Europe so not really an excuse. On top of that last year we had 1 game a week and still had performances like today.
I can't think of many teams that have pulled it off only klopps Liverpool really and maybe early days poch. Hopefully we can find the consistency because when we are good we are really good.
You can only beat the teams that you’re drawn against and are put in front of you.
Sad that you can’t even enjoy an unbeaten start to the competition.
Win the EL you get CL football so ENIC will be happy financially and the fans will be happy we have a decent trophy so yes it would save his job easily.
Is “alright” good?? Or slightly below good but not quite shit.
I’m not saying he’s great. I’m saying he can get these players playing decent football.
And he’s almost 60. If you’re shit you’re not picking up top level jobs at that age. But at this rate I’ll be surprised if he lasts the season Unless Daniel has lost all interest in the top 4.
I'll take another season of "win one, lose one" if he wins a trophy.
I'm just hanging on for a trophy, any trophy. I need something tangible to show for all these wasted years
Yes, but when that doesn’t happen, I’ve got a plan B for Ange, because let’s face it, he won’t have one.
We’ll shift our focus to preseason trophies and clean up.
This is almost exactly the type of season people harp on about when they want us to go back to our trophy winning years.
Finish mid table and win a cup. The Spurs I grew up with.
That would be a lovely point if it wasn’t for us playing the league alongside it and being shown exactly for what we are when we regularly play decent teams.
I would expect Palace to beat all the teams we’ve beaten in the Europa League. It means absolutely nothing.
How are you meant to ‘enjoy’ beating up the dog & duck while being abysmal up against your peers? It’s like losing your Sunday league matches but then banging in 5 in the back garden vs your toddler at home.
A window in which we had a higher net spend than all the richer clubs in that list bar PSG and Man U?And in case anyone doubts you
Which is why I find it so hard to understand why so many of our fans are so small minded and happy to accept mediocrity and the pathetic, unambitious transfer window we had once again this summer
thats never happening for us tho, chelsea won the CL while being shit in the league because they had big game match winners like drogba and lampard etc. we dont have anything like that. if we aint clicking collectively we have no match winner to get us out the muck. so if we are shit in the league it will spill out into everything.
Yep!!
For how long?
Say we get to Christmas 2025 looking likely to fall out of the CL in the league stage, and we're on pace for another ±60 point season in the PL? Still happy?
What if we do finish 24-25 with no trophies again, and say 64 points and 6th place? Are you happy with Ange going into the last year of his contract?
He’s picked up a singular top job and it was a massive dice roll. He won’t get another if he ends up sacked here.
The rest of his career has been spent at a low level, and he’s not young. He’s just alright. There’s some stuff I like about him as a coach and a lot I don’t.
Why does anyone think we have what it takes to win a trophy? Sooner or later you are going to have to play someone decent. Even in the Europa does anyone fancy this side against Bilbao, Lazio or Frankfurt? Brighton stuck 3 past us in 45 mins and Palace could have had 3 or 4 today. An intimidating atmosphere at the Olympic stadium in Rome and this lot will fold.
Maybe.
If we go far in the EL then the fans will be excited and will stick with him. I just think there’s too much evidence to suggest we’ll lose as soon as we play a decent side.
Ange can get good performances out of the players but he’s not a manager that can make a team more than the sum of its parts.
Also, I think his main problem will be losing the players.
I dont even particularly fancy us against United in a cup environment.
Statement of the obvious. No one, Madrid apart would want United in a one-off Cup game, least of all us.
We can't and don't win big games.
United can, and sometimes do.
I assume that if we have a 56 point season and don't win a trophy, he'll be gone whether he finishes the season or not.
i think he has already.
lets be honest, why would these lot respect him? hes a nobody thats wants them to commit suicide. who in that squad looks at him with any sort of respect? i bet they think hes fucking clueless and cant wait for him to fuck off too.
