Our tactics today are truly mind boggling. A very high line against a player as quick as Zaha who's already had two great attempts to put Palace in front yet we're still playing exactly the same way.

Liverpool have to address the goalie situation in the summer. Karius is a liability. Man City did it with bringing Ederson in and he's massively improved their defence. Also, lol at Mane. Went down like a sack of spuds. This diving malarkey is actually embarrassing.

Milner, Gini and Henderson are offering nothing in midfield. None of them are going to charge forward and provide a killer pass or score a worldy and Palace are completely bypassing them by playing long. We're set up completely wrong for this game :(

There are not many forwards in the game that wont go down pretty easily. Many, Spurs mostly, will actually throw themselves into other players to manufacturer penalties.

Can't argue with that.

I think it's even worse when a player screams in false agony like Mane did.

I hope when VAR kicks in that this kind of despicable behaviour gets retrospectively punished with substantial fines.

Anyone who defends this must be a special kind of plank.

1-0 HT

Deserved lead for Palace, they've defended well and looked more dangerous in attack.

We've been abysmal. Wrong team and the wrong tactics have resulted in a shocking half of football.

Edit: Lose this and Chelsea will only be 7 points behind with 2 games in hand. We're not going to throw away Top 4 are we?
