    We're massive.

    What’s pen mean after the goalscorer
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    It was a penalty.
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Never seen that after we’ve scored
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    The board shows a minimum of x minutes. Two Burnley players decided to have a lay down during added time so he added that time on.

    Thought before this that the pressure was getting to Klopp....don't get me wrong I've never bought into the "media darling" that Klopp os this great guy, but the last couple weeks his comments are that of someone who's rattled

    And while I didn't expect this, he ran his Dortmund team into the ground and couldn't pull it back together

    They have more money to throw at the problem unlike Dortmund, but can see a few similarities, their players look exhausted

    And they have United again on Sunday, then Spurs Thursday before us the following Sunday. Good time to play them ?

    A good time to play them would be Saturday. I would be very surprised if they were still playing so poorly in 3 games time, but obviously I hope so!

    If we beat Palace on Tuesday we go above Liverpool! Who would have thought that?
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Beating Palace will be greater achievement than sitting above Liverpool in the table. They have a nasty habit of spoiling our intentions
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    baracks, they also have a new striker. ☹️
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    I mean they have Ayew, Batshuayi, Benteke and the new person.

    And then look at us.. 😂😂😂
  • LukerzLukerz
    Seen a rumour we are after Benteke.
  • yoyoyoyo
    Moyes said, live on TV, he wants a striker with movement and who runs in behind, like Antonio. I don't see that in Benteke
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Not a surprise if so. He is out of contract I think end of season. This sort of deal is music to Sully’s ears

    Well our midfielder, Soucek, has scored more league goals than all of them put together this season. Who needs strikers?

    We could always come to a 'Gentleman's Agreement' ...

    No, but he'll be relatively cheap, so it's entirely plausible that Moyes Sullivan would be interested
  • alderzalderz
    I actually think Benteke is alright at stretching the play and running behind. He's just been a really bad finisher the past, idk, 5 years or something. We need a marriage of the two, IMO, someone who can run in behind and will work hard, and someone with anything like a decent record in front of goal.

    Yeah, he stays where he is
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    If we sign benteke I’m out of here till moyes and the board have gone
  • BubblesNeverDiesBubblesNeverDies
    Bye Cuz ;)
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    They wouldn’t do it
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Mind you bubbles you’d probably be happy with benteke
  • BubblesNeverDiesBubblesNeverDies
    Cuz, not really. I wonder if we could clone Antonio =)
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    With his dodgy hammies? Nah. 😧
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Benteke would make benny look prolific
  • yoyoyoyo
    And slim
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    About half of the Palace first team have contracts expiring in the summer

    GKs Vincente Guita, Wayne Hennessey, Stephen Henderson,
    CBs Gary Cahill, Scott Dann, Mamadou Sakho,
    FBs Joel Ward, Patrick Van Anhalt, Nathan Clyne, Jeffrey Schlupp, Martin Kelly
    CMs James McArthur, James McCarthy,
    RW/LW Andros Townsend,
    FW Conor Wickham, Christian Benteke.

    Cahill is 35 and Dann will be 34 next month so might be hanging up their boots.

    On top of that Hodgson is already on a one-year extension, he is 73 so the pipe and slippers might be looking a nice option.

    There may be trouble ahead...
  • alderzalderz
    The entire club is build around Zaha playing so I think they won’t mind any of the rest of that
