Honestly, the only positive point was Tanganga taking down Zaha when Lucas was on the ground. Rodon also did well overall. Otherwise nothing. Offensively we seem to be worse off than in Mourinho's time and that's scary. I agree that the absences of several starting players were sorely missed, but it is still unacceptable to lose the way we lost and never have given the impression that it would be any result other than this one.

But the team we put out is not our strongest XI due to a number of reasons: injuries, politics & manager choices. Levy didn’t pick the team today and, even with those missing, it’s unforgivable that we’re losing 3-0.

We have 3 more points than i expected, we play as bad as i expected. Nuno was and continues to be too pragmatic, his team's are so rigid, he doesn't allow any kind of freedom, and doesnt know how to control a game to save his life. Hope he proves me wrong, but its so hard when you see him repeating the same mistake with his previous teams.

I think the Skipp injury is largely irrelevant, he's either fit or he isn't. The change of Gill in immediately makes us more balanced and pushes us up the pitch. We got so lucky to get to ht 0-0 and why that sub didn't have the trigger pulled I don't know.

Unproven my ass, I saw enough of him in that last game he played for us in Europe to know that he was better than most of those that played today.

This is a sure bet!
anti football… against CRYSTAL PALACE! Absolutely disgraceful stuff, first goal attempt around 50th minute. And Nuno said he was going to make us proud?

We’re not ‘shit’… lose your first choice centre back partnership, not have your record signing centre back available, no Lo Celso either and then lose two of your arguably first choice wide forwards to injury, plus Sessegnon’s injured and Emerson who’s just arrived having to make his debut against Zaha of all people… this will have a massive impact any team. Add getting a player sent off, a disinterested Kane and your so called star midfielder in Ndombele being unfit and wanting to leave.
THIS is my dream. I can't see a way forward for us until Poch either comes back, or (more likely) has a clear and simple opportunity to return and chooses not to.
I dealt with the Nuno appointment as a 2 year at most but instantly sackable stop gap, its the only reason i am currently not raging as much as i could be.
What a miss Conte was, dear oh deary me. If he really indicated a willingness to come here you just find a way to make that work Daniel, you just do. Worst case it would have given you another 5-10yrs credit in the bank with the fans.

I wouldn’t say controlled the game but Palace created bugger all prior to the sending off.

We struggled to string consecutive passes together, were ultra ultra narrow and so cutting down our options, barely created any chances, and in general showed a severe lack of quality, plan, everything. Not for the first game either, just the difference today was we didn't ever look like scrapping our way to a result because we weren't working hard either.
Even if we had to send out the Under 12's team I'd expect a hint of a plan of what we're doing, evidence of constructing proper attacks, a balanced lineup etc. It was completely unacceptable, multiple setbacks or not.

Are you kidding???
All of this started with him!!
Paratici, Nuno and co are coming in and trying to fix a mess completely out of his doing.
Because he felt the squad was good enough and decided Jose was the man to get the best out of them rather than listening to Poch and starting the rebuild, we have ended up being stuck with the likes of Dier, Davies, Winks and co to somehow get us back in the CL.
