Have said it before and will say it again, fifa need to bring in a rule that allows only 3 or 4 players from each side in the penalty area for set pieces - how the fcuk is giroud supposed to win a header when the palace guy has him in a bear hug ? :roll: C*nts like skertel have allowed get away with murder this season from every fcuking set piece and it is clear that fifa need to do something about it - tbf to refs, we cant expect then to see everything through a pile of about 12 players in the area

Think we need to go 4-4-2 and fast -

midfield ox-arteta-ozil-cazorla

strikers pod and giroud

Nothing is sticking up front and we need ox's pace on the wing to pin them back

I know that I have said it before but I will say it again.......I have never seen a footballer to go backwards with the ball as much as monreal :roll: The fcuker must have been born facing his mother's arse instead of facing upwards :wink: :lol:

I really enjoy this 'having to be patient', bit more tip tap, occasional free-kick goes nowhere, how about a shot boys?

hard to see where a goal will come from, our midfield is very poor at the moment

Is it simplifying things too much to suggest that the transfer window fiasco has played a big part in the flat atmosphere in the first half ?

I don't understand why Gibbs is not playing.
He would at least get forward and attack down the wings.

This is similar to the Cardiff match.
Expect Bendtner to come on and get the winner

The tippy-tappy shite only works when it's done at pace. We always try to stroll through defences at walking pace. Shoot FFS! So frustrating to watch.

I don't know what the point of Podolski is. He isn't quick and he doesn't move the ball fast enough.

The ref is suiting palace very well by not handed out yellows easily... Webb would have booked about 4 by now i reckon.

Fair play to the palace fans, great support. And i hate tony pullis but he is a master at doing what he does in my opinion. Just hope we can cause the keeper some problems 2nd half.
