Did it for you GT. You can sleep with the knowledge we’ve done the leauge double over the egg and chip butties. Great win didn’t play that well but we had a bit of luck for once and sone super stops by Foster again. Unbeaten in four games all comps now. Nobody say that Europa word yet. Please. Well done lads. Short one from me today have to dash out, recording MOTD should be good. Well done everyone. Xx
Great result. Reading some of the comments above. Oh dear. Probably best to wait until after the game before you sl@g off certain players. Deeney won everything in the air and his hold up play is immense. One of the best in the league at doing what he does. He drives the team forward. If he scores 6-8 goals a season then he’s doing ok in my opinion. He creates the space that Delf exploits. Nice little partnership forming. Great strike from Cleverly. So happy for him after his latest injury. We are spoilt for choice when it comes to quality midfield players! It wasn’t that long ago Yeates was doing that for us.... Great result and nice to do Palarse over on their own patch.
Deulofeu wasn't bad and wasn't great but at least he was involved. Pereyra was missing for large chunks of the game today.
Up yours to whingy Woy, up yours to cheater Zaha, up yours to their crying fans. I hope our fans sang "Did you cry at Selhurst Park?" in tribute to what they usually sing to us. When you get a double over Palace to put us in 7th place, it's a very good day.
You must hand it to JG for making the inspired substitution + Deeney earned his £80k this week. V.proud of them today for seeing the game out professionally after the winning goal.
Yep indeed! Where's Nath? On the shoutbox he was having a right old go at Gracia and his subs.... <insert rolls eyes smile here>
Exactly. The moustached oddball says that Zaha cannot be diving as he is the second most fouled player in the league. Instead, we can see that he goes down with an arm on the shoulder like he's been shot. The referee gives more fouls to him, that aren't fouls, than any other player in the league. The article has got their cause and effect mixed up. That he gets the second most fouls isn't evidence that he doesn't dive. Quite the opposite.
Can I respectfully suggest people look at pre match comments. 7th. Behind the top 6. Trust our structure
Admittedly, Deeney was much better in the second half, first half he was woeful. If you get a chance watch the match back and you’ll see what I mean
In our last two away games, we've only had 5 shots on target, yet scored 5 goals!! Pretty clinical. Who said we need a striker 32 points from 22 games is a magnificent achievement, yet is still under what we've deserved overall. This is purely down to Gracia in how he's got this group of players, fighting and playing for each other. I think we're just two quality signings away from being a solid 7th finish. By that I mean well clear of the rest. Look at Everton...….we're 5 clear of them. You see Silva, the grass is not always greener. Mind you, we wouldn't be having the season we're having now had he stayed. Silva going was a blessing to Watford.
Quinn on talksport "Nose bleed time for them. I didn't watch the game but I don't know how they do it. They change their managers every other season". Dear God this man is paid for these comments!!!
It’s great doing the double over any team, even sweeter doing it against a team who so badly want to be our rivals and claim to hate us more than Brighton and Millwall. Thanks for the 6 points, Wilf and the other 10
There was a bit on Absolute Radio as a general preview to the games and they brought up your exaggerated retirement as a result of the palace thing. As it happened, they were very complimentary of your mascotry, but i had to reassure my 5 and 6 year old girls that the talk of your retirement was erroneous, as it upset them greatly. You're their favourite. And mine x
Fortunately our manager knows that there is 90+ minutes in a football match and doesn’t give up at half time.
I love the tactic by Holebas of sending a load of utter shyte corners to lull the Palarse defenders into a false sense of security before sending in a real peach for Cartcart to nod in! As for Cleverley, another contender for goal of the season. Why can't we hold on to the ball or pass it to our own players in the middle third? So frustrating! But we won, so on this occasion, hey ho!
And we're feeling Clap clap Glad all over Yes we're Clap clap Glad all over Baby we're Clap clap Glad all over This one's for you GT
