Palace vs Saints - Build Up

Boufal again gets a start then dropped. Sell him if we aren't going to actually bother starting him.

 

Has Boufal ever actually created a goal for anyone? I vaguely remember him having a touch in one of J Rod's goals at Bournemouth but that's about it.

 

Bringing Long back will add more tempo to our game

 

How does giving away offsides and goal kicks equate to tempo?

What's the shape of that midfield, then?

 

'Y-Fronts'

 

-------Romeu-------

--Davis----Lemina--

--Tadic----Redmond--

 

or 'Star'

 

--Romeu---Lemina--

-------Davis--------

Tadic---------Redmond

 

or 'Trench Warfare'

 

Tadic--Davis--Romeu--Lemina--Redmond

 

(names interchangeable, positions for illustrative purposes only)

Pleased to see Long starting again, purely for the fact that he will hopefully stretch the defence and chase everything down. It comes to something, though, when I'm pleased to see a striker start who hasn't scored in 16 matches!

 

Just hoping to see some meaningful attacking intent today.

 

Money is on a draw, however. 1-1 or 2-2.

This whole place reeks of negativity not just this thread. Nothing new but just a little tiresome.

 

5 games in

 

1 goal which wasn't a penalty.

Failed to score in 4/5, all against mediocre to poor opposition.

Conceded twice at home in 3/4 games.

13th after the easiest start we could possibly have hoped for.

 

I dread to think where we'll end up when we've played some good teams.

I dread to think how many will be jumping off the itchen bridge.
