    Really pleased For Crystal Palace after their win today.

    They do play some attractive strong attacking football but they don't need Tayo, he can come back to us (I wish..!!)

    Although I did wonder what the England manager was doing there seeing as 90% of the players on show would not qualify to play for England ...!!

    Not Man City’s season
    Teams just park the bus and play 90% defense

    To be fair, yes Manchester City only had 2 English players who appeared on the pitch, but Crystal Palace had 7 English players who played either all or some part of the match.
    I am sure Tuchel was watching Eze, Guehi and Wharton.

    Totally inept officiating again,if it wasnt a sending off,which i think it was,then it was definitely something,you cant just palm the ball away outside the area and do absolutely nothing. And i had a quid on Place to win 2-1 :(

    Every game you'll see keepers handle the ball well outside their area when they run to the edge to kick the ball away down field...

    It's either a sending off or it's just a restart of the game. That's how VAR works and you can't really blame the referee for not being able to spot that, it would have been a total guess.

    Perhaps the linesman should have a better view though.
