I'm not a Palace fan though... I'm not after an argument just generally curious as to whether you would accept that style of football week in week out. Do you see Palace winning another pot in the next few seasons. I'm thrilled for them but my god they are dull to watch.

Do you think that’s palace’s objective every season? Of course it’s not. Staying in the premier league is id guess and today they won the fa cup. They won’t care if they don’t win another one for 50 years
 
I
And do they care that they beat Stockport, Doncaster, Millwall, Fulham, Villa and a poor City to do it? Nope.

Some of our lot? The Europa will be tainted because we didn’t beat anyone good to win it. If we do of course.

Are you fucking serious 😂

Villa are a CL side fucking miles above anyone we’ve played. Fulham are better than every side we’ve played other than Frankfurt and frankly I’d fancy them.

A ‘poor City’ lmao … compared to our final against 16th!

Stop making silly cope comparisons. Makes you look ridiculous.
 
I'm as envious as I am happy about Palace winning that. Yet another team wins something before we do...

I take solace though of seeing the FA Cup giving a team and its fans an incredible day to remember forever - just like it used to be. Imagine City winning that and then celebrating like it's a mere 'better than nothing cup'. The FA should be ashamed of how they have allowed this competition to be bullied.

Maybe I'm just a sucker for the FA Cup. I just find it incredible that this is the only competition we haven't been in the final two for since 1991. It's our bloody turn!

We SHOULD be envious...but I watched us lift that Trophy & I live very close to Crystal Palace with friends at the moment so I'm happy for them!

Our time WILL come!!!
 
They play in a way that I was hoping we would this season, solid defensively, but with an attacking mindset whereby they look to get the ball forward as quickly as possible when they win it back.

At no point this season have I ever watched them and thought they were an attritional team to watch. If anything, I find them a far more "exciting" team to watch than City, who dominated possession.

Yeah, I don’t disagree with that as a description, but I think it would look pretty attritional with our bunch of fucking bumblers up front, the way it did with Mourinho and Conte.
 
Today has proven my point - NO ONE WILL CARE WHERE CRYSTAL PALACE ARE IN THE PREM this season...

THEY WON A DAMN TROPHY...

That's all that matters...
