Jordan Morris is one gimpy mofo - USMNT can definitely not rely on him.

Crystal Palace play like the ugliest football you have ever seen but then out of nowhere score two nice goals the two times they cross the halfway line.

I have really never seen a more lopsided game where the far better team lost.

Unfortunately, it happens, and it seems to me that the Italian traditions in the defense of some teams are to blame, when all 11 players play in their own penalty area, and then create 1-2 chances per game on counterattacks and win. Even if they don't play spectacular football.

Interesting lineup.

For us it's probably the best we can put out with Maddison, Fofana, Justin and Praet injured (I suppose Perez could have got in if he wasn't injured but I''m not sure).

Big game. Let it be a blues day rather than a blue day. Win for Leicester and point(s) for Chelsea please.

Wouldn't you like Tielemans and Castagne to get a hat-trick each today?

Oh well...
It would be something if Arsenal could start a game decent.

Perhaps we'll go back to attacking now. that is when we are dangerous.

Disappointing to be behind at the half. We scored early then just sat back and tbh Arsenal didn't look dangerous. Great header though and then a penalty.

Brendan needs to tell them to speed up their game and go forward. No reason we can't still win this. Could do with Vardy clicking his movement and passing is off again today.

And now Barnes is out.

Season is again in danger. Too many injuries all season long.

We needed to make 6 or 7 changes today as our team is really tired but we have too many injured to do that. It showed as both Evans and Vardy played with niggles and then Barnes and Evans have gone down injured. We play a high press game and we just can't do it with all these games and injuries.

Well Wednesday they'll be playing a tired broken team and Wood is sure to score.

Man Utd should've been awarded a pen today.
Boring game though.

I didn't watch.

I'm just so sad for my team. Injury after injury. I was so sure Barnes would make the Euros. He has been one of the most exciting players in the prem and then this. No way he'll be in now and of course it really hurts our chances of making CL.
