Get in Obiang, first goal for us I think.

Happy Happy Joy Joy

chicagohammer

baracks_a_hammer

On the bright side...

Yeoldhammer

Obiang solid stuff

Dodger58

I think Sam's about to lose his record, Palace now 3 down to Sunderland!!

OldCastleSwift

Palace 3-0 down to Sunderland.

Make that 4.

Wow

We play like that second half and we should have nothing to fear.

Just hope we go for more goals.

grey_til_I_dye

Well deserved lead at HT, imo.

Good game to watch, we've been inventive and patient, and their 'goal' was scored by a player starting from an offside position, so at HT it is actually 0-2 to us.

Any chance Noble could try running with the ball instead of jogging ;doh

EXETERHAMMER

I have to say that Obiang and Noble are controlling the midfield at the moment. They are working well as a pair.

tomkinsworldclass

v.Good performance, just need to be disciplined and patient because the chances will always be there. Would like to see abit more protection for Noble + Obiang in the middle, and feghouli needs to work alot harder and more aggressively. LOVE Obiang! ;bowdown ;bowdown ;bowdown ;bowdown

Yeoldhammer

Obiang HOTY?

baracks_a_hammer

It will be AC if he stays fit.

Obiang it is then..

Hantshammer

Can we stop now we are 9th? ;pray

Really pleased with that 1st half. I suppose it makes a difference in confidence going out to play a team who haven't already spanked us...

Yes but they did earlier in the season ;hmm

thornburyiron

Well said Jose Grey

Get in, OG, although Noble may try to claim it as it was probably going in anyway.

buffybegood

Carroll off for Lanzini.

Hantshammer

Why take carroll off? Should b fegholli?

claretandbluesky

Why would you do that? surely Fergouli for Lanzini as Carroll frightens them at every set piece and is giving his all!

Does Slav think it's already won........... I hope not.

Giant_Hammer

Is he injured Buffy?

baracks_a_hammer

It's a strange substitution if he's not injured ;hmm

buffybegood

What a miss from Gabiadini,

MunichHammer

Protecting him maybe? No need to risl him if we're 3-1 up

chicagohammer

Good performance all round, jury is still out on Feghouli, he does not seem to be up to speed to me, needs to improve his positioning, awareness, close control and distribution.

Shows flashes of quality but not enough for me.

thornburyiron

I hope this doesn't come back to bite us. If it does Slav needs to go
