No brainer really. Only need one DM and play both Janssen and Kane against a poor team at home and it's fill ya boots time. Anything less than 3 goals and I'm gonna be disappointed
I don't set goal limits mate. :D Never goes well. We need to win this though and should go hard at them at home with guns blazing.

The idea that we play only one DM suggests most people think Palace are going to show up without a midfield and that after playing reasonably okay for 30 minute with two up front means that this settled squad, comfortable in a system that saw us tear the arses off most opposition last season, should now look to go on a 4-4-2 rampage.

Palace are going to come to the Lane expecting to be camped in their own half. Playing a strong physical midfield will insure that. Jansen, really should only be utilised if Plan A isn't working.

Plan B works lads, that's great. We saw that last week. It doesn't mean it should now be our default setting.

I love the fact that he had to keep stopping and correcting himself. "Gareth Barry er Gareth Bale"

Yeah bless him I think if memory serves he done a video on YT on how to treat women like a pua style video and if you think his spurs videos are bad then this fkn thing is up there with David Brent style comedy gold.
I mean I feel bad even bringing it up

I actually worry for the kid cos if he went to my school he would have been slaughtered and prolly wouldn't be able to leave the house

We didn't really have that option last season, so never got to see plan B used as a plan A against bus parkers. It could well become that if it works...

If Leicester can, we can.

If Leicester can Hull can. The only thing that pisses me off about Leicester winning the league is that now they are the example for everything.

Last season I could not crap over my garden fence but after Leicester won the title everything is possible.

I didn't think there would ever be a second coming but Leicester..... and so on. I was even posting that Liverpool have no chance of the title or top 4 (just got beat of Burnley!) and some tard said well Leicester had a good team spirit last season and Liverpool seem to have the same so, the poster thought Liverpool could win the title... I mean what!

Yes, Leicester won the title last season, was it against the odds - yes, was it an amazing win - yes, I would say so. Does it mean pigs can fly - no it does not.

Rant over, and Spurs have every right to be title contenders this year.

Very little from the Palace fans about us, they're all very much focused on their manager and his future.

One nice line about our defence that summed up the match from their perspective, however.

"If the Spurs keeper still had the receipt for his gloves, he could probably take them back."

From the Palace board, post match comments:

Please go and find your nearest train station and jump infront of the first train and do us all a favour!

Zaha is really struggling now. Starting to look a little out of place at this level. He is so predictable, Spurs handled him no problem at all

Spurs dominated the midfield, Ledley struggled against them


Between the time Spurs scored and full time this chap gave the Nazi salute to the Spurs fans with his hand under his nose pretending to be Adolf Hitler. Scum.

Great stuff when we were singing "Your Ground's a Building Site"

Well at least they can spot the fucking obvious...

Get your head out of your arse for a change. The result had nothing to do with the referee

Dirty Spurs did a job on Palace today and the inept Michael Oliver and his blind assistants allowed this to happen.

One decent chance in 90 mins? Ok, brilliant

Have to agree with that.

Have you seen the training video from earlier this weekend? Cabaye scores a beaut.

That's the second time I've seen something about us being dirty today. I did think we fouled too much, but we certainly weren't allowed to get away with anything untoward.

Stats will tell you we committed a number of fouls. My eyes will tell you about 50% of them were bullshit decisions preempted by Oliver before the "offense" even happened.

There were one or two I thought were bullshit (such as Dier's yellow), but I thought any injustice we suffered was more the amount of times that we weren't given fouls when their defenders were holding and/or pushing.
