Our game v Spurs is confirmed for Thursday 12th May. Our game v Newcastle away is moved to the monday night game of that week and our game v Leeds is moved to the Sunday 2pm slot that weekend.

It will be interesting to see how many weeks we play before or after Spurs. In the run in It is a big advantage to play first.
Edit: Also when we play Leeds on the sunday that is the game before the NLD, Spurs play on the saturday - theirs is away to Liverpool but still nearly a days extra rest before a potential season defining game

Need to up the tempo lads

Tough night just got tougher.

They look far more up for it.

I was about to post that Gab is not quite on point tonight. Don’t think you can blame him for that one though.

Neither Saka or Ode are in it so far.

It is a bit of a lucky goal considering how the header came back across goal, the palace guy knew nothing about it. Got to defend the set piece better though.

I have to say I do fear for us a little bit away from home when we go behind. Have we ever come back to get anything from a game when we've gone behind away from home?

This is all about second balls. Palace are playing very direct and are just picking up second balls and being very phsyical. We've got to get hold of those second balls - simple

Umm. Not going to plan is it?

A long way back now.

Not at the races sadly.

having no CF makes it incredibly difficult. No out ball to turn the defenders.

You can blame Gab for that one.

*%^@. Absolute mountain to climb now.

We are so poor today. Can hardly string any passes together.

We can’t string 2 passes together

Brentford away comes to mind. This is a rampant physical big crowd energy team. Did we have a plan to neutralise that? Tierney out hasn’t helped but we look unprepared.

Urgh, that is just atoal mess and mix up at the back. That through ball should never ever end up in the goal like that. Feels like writing the game off as a defat already.
The only way Palace were beating us today was the same way any mid table team beats us at home, high tempo, high press, get the crowd behind them, a few big tackles, winnign second balls, rattle us and pounce on the mistakes. There is nothing sophisticated about it

I say it all the time, I hate these late night away games when we're the only game on tv. The home crowds just get absolutely rampant for it. Give me this game at 3pm on a Saturday any day of the week.

Our Newcastle away game moving to the monday night makes me far less confident about that game than if it was a saturday 3pm game

Trouble all over the pitch. Can't deal with their press, defense looks stretched and not at the races, not winning any duels. Our attacking players have barely been in the game at all. Only way from here is up.

Very lucky to get a point here now.

Easy to say in hindsight but I’d have started Martinelli after tearing it up with Brazil, over SR with 20 minutes after an injury with England.

Winning duels is the key thing. Losing them all over the pitch

Sadly I’m not sure it is

Feels like we've got to get 1 before half time here. Currently no chance of getting one with the way we're playing

Tavares is all over the place. Might need to switch saka to left back

Well, if Lacazette wants to redeem himself, yada yada yada ....

Feels closer to 3-0 than 2-1, they look so much hungrier not to mention sharper.

Yet more duels lost. Gallagher just buzzing round winning every tackle and second ball, we're not matching the intensity or being careful enough with the ball.

They are ferocious in mf.

We ain’t.

What a night to put in a 2 out of 10 performance

We're our won worst enemy completely today. No intensity and simple passes given away time and again. None of the 4 forward players have got in the game at all

And of their team you'd only really take Gallagher in our team - he's a top player - but the rest are simply putting in a huge shift and feeding off the positive play and our mistakes

First time Odeagaard finds some space and he fluffs what should be a relatively easy through ball to Lacazette - massively under hit it

So many simple passes going astray

Partey absolute garbage tonight. Couldnt pass water.

Just the usual thing the team can’t cope with losing 2 or 3 first team players through injury or rotation. It’s always the same thing.

So sad to see us so lethargic in a game of this magnitude.

Partey is having a shocker.

When we play badly we make journeymen players like Jordan bloody Ayew look like a world beater

Absolutely woeful
