    did that palace player not want to win, what was he doing 💀

  • mocobom👤314 hours ago

    Palace 🤮🤮🤮

  • airz23s_coffee614 hours ago

    Fucking up a 3 on 1 attacking situation always looks so bad.

  • rjtwe314 hours ago

    Return of the Bruce

  • Imaginary-Future8501814 hours ago

    Still think Palace have the quality to stay up. Looks like a confidence issue to me. They got into plenty of good positions and just wasted the final ball or shot.

    • j4ckwh0👤314 hours ago

      They have an extreme lack of quality in the final third. Which ends up even worse when their best player Eze is out of form.

      Their signings have been really bad as well.

  • Ohtani_Enjoyer👤114 hours ago

    It’s only 8 games. Palace will click

  • Imaginary-Future8501114 hours ago

    Still think Palace have the quality to stay up. Looks like a confidence issue to me. They got into plenty of good positions and just wasted the final ball or shot.

  • gigabite12345TB👤214 hours ago

    What’s happened to palace, ended last season really well?

    • Sun_Sloth514 hours ago

      They beat a lot of teams on the beach towards the end of the season.

    • Snugboo👤414 hours ago

      Replaced Olise and Anderson with okay at best players at worser leagues

  • etchgtown314 hours ago

    We are the worst passing premier league club, and I don’t think it’s close.

  • FastenedCarrot314 hours ago

    Sels taking no prisoners there.

  • Simmyho1014 hours ago

    Forest have been really impressive this season

  • resident_hater1214 hours ago

    So disappointed in Palace.

    They have absolutely shat themselves by spending so poorly. Nketiah was a terrible signing and anyone not slobbering Arsenal could have seen that. Kamada is hot garbage and already looks out of his depth. Sarr is a one trick pony that is out of tricks. Olise is impossible to replace but good God, did they royally fuck it.

    • floorscentadolescent214 hours ago

      I remember Arsenal fans downvoting people calling him shite in the transfer thread, they’ve came out the winners here though, absolute fleece job

    • sleepytoday214 hours ago

      Forest were rumoured to have made a £30m bid for Nketiah, but apparently the player rejected the contract offer.

      Most of us over at /r/nffc were panicking as it was widely felt he’d be a disastrous appointment.

  • OliverAM16514 hours ago

    Guehi is terrible.

    • Sun_Sloth614 hours ago

      He wasn’t even good at the Euros, made a lot of mistakes that didn’t get punished and some mistakes that did.

      • FastenedCarrot214 hours ago

        England fans had a terrible case of toxic positivity at the Euros, refused to acknowledge any flaws unless they were punished.

        • Sun_Sloth214 hours ago

          Yeah like I’m glad we made it to the final but the flaws were insanely obvious. We were a minute away from going out in the first knockout round let alone the rest of the performances. I think we had a good half against the Netherlands and that was about it.

  • FromWithdean2Wembley514 hours ago

    Mentioned the 10-0 again. Hahahaha

  • Imaginary-Future8501414 hours ago

    Brilliant block by Dominguez, he covered so much ground to get back when Murillo lost it

  • Ajax_Trees_Again👤914 hours ago

    “For the Japanese”

    Proper yer da commentary that

  • AayB5015 hours ago

    When you let Assna scam you this is bound to happen.

  • ItWasJustBanter1615 hours ago

    Got to finish these off here. Screams an equaliser despite being better than

  • Snugboo👤415 hours ago

    These were the types of games Jordan Ayew would score a banger to equalize in

  • BruntyMozza515 hours ago

    Replacing Olise and Andersen with Kamada and Lacroix was always a massive red flag

  • themightyscott󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿515 hours ago

    I hope Awoniyi finds his form again, he was excellent for a while.

  • RichmondOfTroy👤515 hours ago

    How have things gone so wrong for Glasner?

    Palace looked outstanding under him at the end of last season

    • FaustRPeggi514 hours ago

      Olise was the heart and soul of it all. Mateta was in the hottest form of his career that he might never repeat.

      Shite recruitment in the summer and everyone knew it.

      • RichmondOfTroy👤114 hours ago

        Yeah thanks that’s probably the only legit answer I’ve gotten.

    • OliverAM16115 hours ago

      Most of the teams they played didnt really have anything to play for and were already almost on holiday.

  • rav3musik115 hours ago

    Palace will probably be fine but are also shite atm

  • GameplayerStu615 hours ago

    Reckon Guehi has thrown his toys out the pram after not getting that Newcastle move + a little ego inflation after a good Euros.

    • Ohtani_Enjoyer👤114 hours ago

      Their biggest issue is the 5 goals in 8 games

  • Gr4fitti👤215 hours ago

    I’m probably naive, but I think Palace will click into gear towards the latter half of the season to claim the rightful 14th, pushing for 13th, spot. 

  • themightyscott󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿315 hours ago

    I think I would want to stay on the pitch just to not have to look at the doctor’s sideburns for longer than necessary.

  • quooooon815 hours ago

    Crystal Palace might be the most disappointing team this season. Wolves are up there too

    • Musername2827314 hours ago

      Wolves have had a horrible opening run of fixtures tbf.

    • WarryHilson👤015 hours ago

      Palace fans were claiming they were 100% getting Europe this season after beating a few teams at the point of the season when no-one tries.

    • RichmondOfTroy👤115 hours ago

      I think everyone expected Wolves to be shit

      • quooooon114 hours ago

        Yes but not this shit

        • RichmondOfTroy👤214 hours ago

          O’Neil worked miracles to keep them up last season and then they lost by far and away their best player.

    • hughhuckleberry👤415 hours ago

      Decent chance relegation is on the table rn

  • SoapyWitTank315 hours ago

    That haircut tho.

  • Ohtani_Enjoyer👤315 hours ago

    Palace look a lot better with mateta

  • Imaginary-Future8501115 hours ago

    Subs too negative

  • AaronStudAVFC715 hours ago

    We all got fooled by Glasner’s new manager bounce. They look fucking abysmal this season.

    • Sun_Sloth215 hours ago

      Palace played teams on the beach in their run last season, except Liverpool.

      • AaronStudAVFC315 hours ago

        Yeah, they routed us but we had Callum chambers at CM and the players were almost certainly still hungover.

  • airz23s_coffee215 hours ago

    Very considerate of Munoz to hold that ball to make sure all the forest teams were back in position.

    • lewiitom515 hours ago

      I got a load of abuse last week for saying that he’s not been great this season but he looks a shadow of the player he was last season, so much less direct

      • tiorzol315 hours ago

        He looks unfit or injured. Where’s the man who was at the back post every attack we had end of last season?

  • WarryHilson👤315 hours ago

    Lacroix is mid table championship level.

    edit: I apologise to championship players, he is far worse.

  • sjekky215 hours ago

    Doesn’t look like Glasner’s got long left at Palace but he really should be remembered forever for getting a tune out of Mateta for as long as he did. He is absolutely wank

  • Ajax_Trees_Again👤315 hours ago

    Forest dark horses for Europe?

    • Shniper111 hours ago

      If our forest can fix their attacking then yes

      Our defense is outstanding and European worthy

      Our attack is atrocious

    • ItWasJustBanter1215 hours ago

      Yes yes yes 🙌🏻

    • OliverAM16115 hours ago

      Nah theres atleast 7-8 better teams. The level of teams in top 10 the last few years has been crazy high.

    • themightyscott󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿315 hours ago

      Not consistent enough, too many draws.

  • OliverAM161015 hours ago

    Was Andersen the glue in Palaces defence all along instead of Guehi?

    • wyndzzy415 hours ago

      Not just in defence but in his distribution of the ball. He was a huge part of the way we were able to play out from the back. Not the same since he left.

    • Sun_Sloth215 hours ago

      Yes

  • SubparCurmudgeon󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿515 hours ago

    bringing in schlupp chasing a goal

    you really have to feel for glasner here

    • FastenedCarrot115 hours ago

      Schlupp is capable of magic.

    • Snugboo👤015 hours ago

      Worked against Fulham last season

  • BruntyMozza415 hours ago

    I wonder how much longer Glasner has if he loses this.

    He’s a decent manager and did well at the end of last season but Parish is not shy about pulling the trigger when he thinks Palace are in danger, and based on this first 8 games they definitely are.

    Lowest scorers in the league and seem to concede quite a few big chances in each game.

    • LordOfSchmeat415 hours ago

      Who do we bring in? Big Sam? Woy again? Once again, we have no ambition nor direction besides being “financially responsible.” Parish runs this club like a fucking accountant, and it’s shown.

      • FragMasterMat117214 hours ago

        Moyes?

      • BruntyMozza115 hours ago

        Yeah in the past you’ve tended to go for the “fire fighter” type manager (Pulis, Allardyce, Hodgson twice) but those types don’t really exist anymore.

        Not saying this is a good idea but I could see Parish being tempted by Southgate, if he’d take the job.

    • thejackalreborn515 hours ago

      They have Spurs and then Wolves at home, if they don’t win one of them I think he is gone

    • Imaginary-Future8501315 hours ago

      You still look way better than you did under Vieira

      • RichmondOfTroy👤115 hours ago

        Viera’s first season when he had Gallagher was outstanding

      • tiorzol415 hours ago

        Vieira is a shit manager. Had no clue towards the end.

        He did kick that bloke on the pitch that time tho 

    • FaustRPeggi615 hours ago

      Roy Hodgson time soon come

      • FromWithdean2Wembley615 hours ago

        Palace abusing an old age pensioner. Just leave the man in peace

  • Snugboo👤615 hours ago

    Schlupp looks like he been eating too much Joloff rice

    • SubparCurmudgeon󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿515 hours ago

      it’s the jerk chickens at brixton

  • j4ckwh0👤515 hours ago

    The Nketiah signing is perhaps the worst bit of transfer business done by any club outside of the ‘big 6’ clubs.

  • LordOfSchmeat315 hours ago

    Hahahaha that fatty Schlupp on right as they show Beaky. Emblematic of our past half decade or so

  • tiorzol515 hours ago

    3 at the back is not working at all. Does this man have anything else in his locker

  • Sun_Sloth415 hours ago

    It’s okay, at least Palace have their incredible academy to fall back on.

    • lewiitom315 hours ago

      Hopefully they’ll help our promotion push next year

  • rjtwe415 hours ago

    Save us Schlupp

  • etchgtown815 hours ago

    Guehi’s effort level is approaching zero

    • tiorzol215 hours ago

      No one has positive body language in the team. It’s dire out there 

    • Ajax_Trees_Again👤215 hours ago

      Think it was because of the messing about in the summer?

  • Creepy-Escape796015 hours ago

    Henderson is at best a cup goalkeeper for a bottom of the league team. Awful

  • FaustRPeggi915 hours ago

    Can’t quite believe what Chris Wood has become under Nuno. We really lucked into the prime years of his career when everyone had started to write him off.

    Nuno gets as much out of him as he did from Raúl Jiménez.

    • ItWasJustBanter1215 hours ago

      He’s a very experienced striker, quality for us

  • Lonely_Leopard_8555👤715 hours ago

    Palace currently getting one point from Brentford, West Ham, Leicester, Everton and Forest doesn’t bode well for them

    • LordOfSchmeat215 hours ago

      Will be shocked if we finish with >25 points.

  • besieged_mind👤015 hours ago

    Palace came in with an idea not to lose and they are going to lose 1-0.

    To need points and not to start Mateta nor Wharton is enough to get fired.

    • LordOfSchmeat515 hours ago

      Wharton is injured and needs surgery. Should’ve been well into recovery by this point

      • besieged_mind👤115 hours ago

        Why is he on the bench though?

  • No-layup👤315 hours ago

    Henderson dosent know where his goal is

  • LordOfSchmeat315 hours ago

    We should be down 3-0. This is absolutely dreadful

  • hughhuckleberry👤315 hours ago

    As a Palace fan I wanna scream until my lungs burst into a red mist. They can’t keep getting away with this😭

  • Ajax_Trees_Again👤315 hours ago

    If Anderson learns how to finish he’ll be lethal

  • Imaginary-Future8501515 hours ago

    My Glasner to Man Utd mid season prediction in tatters

  • jibasic615 hours ago

    Kamada is just Max Meyer v2.

    • besieged_mind👤115 hours ago

      I don’t understand hype about this guy.

    • Sun_Sloth115 hours ago

      At least you’re not paying this one over £100k a week right?

      • tiorzol115 hours ago

        10 grand a week is too much for this bum

  • Ohtani_Enjoyer👤215 hours ago

    Arsenal fans look away

  • ItWasJustBanter1215 hours ago

    Woody boyyyy

  • BadBehaviour613215 hours ago

    Guh. Glasner stock shat through the bottom

  • Sun_Sloth215 hours ago

    Whilst it’s annoying to see our rivals for European places Nottingham Forest going ahead, at least it’s against Palace.

  • FaustRPeggi215 hours ago

    Woody boi is as inevitable as the tides and the sunrise.

  • benc777315 hours ago

    Would have hooked Kamada. Done nothing.

    No idea how that wasn’t a save.

  • suedney315 hours ago

    chris wood beautiful man

  • thejackalreborn115 hours ago

    Taking Nketiah off now when you need a goal is an interesting call

    • twigg89215 hours ago

      The only surprising thing was that Glasner didn’t take off Kamada as well, both have been useless.

      • besieged_mind👤115 hours ago

        Nketiah can at least score. Kamada can’t do shit.

        • twigg89215 hours ago

          He’s looked more likely to find the lost city of Atlantis tonight than score

    • AaronStudAVFC315 hours ago

      Well Nketiah isn’t going to provide one at this rate.

  • Sun_Sloth415 hours ago

    BRIGHTON LEGEND CHRIS WOOD

  • LilCelebratoryDance515 hours ago

    More like Chris Good!

    Lmao we’re so fucking shit. I’m out. I’m done. It’s over. 

    • OliverAM16015 hours ago

      Still Glasner In?

      • tiorzol315 hours ago

        Dunno tbh not sure anyone else could get anything out of these the recruitment has been poor.

    lol henderson

  • Gr4fitti👤315 hours ago

    Let’s go Mateta! 

  • Imaginary-Future8501515 hours ago

    Get in Woody

  • airz23s_coffee515 hours ago

    Dunno what Nuno’s done to Chris Wood but fair play, the combo just works.

  • twwavey👤715 hours ago

    Test his wrists

  • thejackalreborn815 hours ago

    Terrible from Henderson actually - think the early shot caught him out

  • Ohtani_Enjoyer👤515 hours ago

    Dean Tremenderson

  • sjekky1015 hours ago

    That is a properly shit great goal. A rare occurrence

  • Creepy-Escape796515 hours ago

    Nketiah upfront is like being a man down as we all know.

    • ShadowLickerrr213 hours ago

      Yeah but the amount of people gassing him up on ere saying he would get 15 goals this season was laughable, the guys a fraud.

      • Creepy-Escape796112 hours ago

        I understand the irony of me saying this, but there are lots of shit takes from arsenal flairs on this website. Way more than real life arsenal fans

  • Hoodxd715 hours ago

    How much did Palace spend on Henderson and Nketiah?

      same amount as bayern paid for olise 💀

  • OliverAM16415 hours ago

    Damn Forest has surprised everyone so far this season.

    • paprikalicous215 hours ago

      they were 4th in xg conceded last season. i guess we should’ve seen this coming now that they have a good goalkeeper.

  • Hoodxd315 hours ago

    Wood planted his seed

      Had Wood.

  • thejackalreborn515 hours ago

    That ball was moving. Great save.

    Outstanding save

  • kl08pokemon315 hours ago

    Forest have looked quite solid other games I’ve seen them this season so surprised they’re so open today

    • twigg89015 hours ago

      They are really good at sitting deep, tackling hard, and breaking fast. Anything more than that and they struggle massively.

    wtf was that jesus

  • Chiswell123315 hours ago

    This isn’t serious

      He’s a terrible footballer but a great player if that makes any sense

    I can’t take much more

  • Gr4fitti👤215 hours ago

    Hughes wtf haha

  • etchgtown315 hours ago

    Who are we relying on for a precision final ball? Hughes? Lerma? No one out there is capable.

  • No-layup👤115 hours ago

    Palace are two quality wingbacks and a quality 8 away from being a good team

    • FaustRPeggi1015 hours ago

      Mitchell and Munoz are not the problems in this team.

      • No-layup👤215 hours ago

        They offer no attacking threat

    feels like munoz would be a better footballer if he got rid of the stupid goatee

  • Creepy-Escape796115 hours ago

    Glasner must love Kamada unconditionally
