We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday’s Carabao Cup game between QPR and Crystal Palace.
Here are some of your comments:
Dave: A glass half-full – some positive moments but at times we looked exposed and vulnerable against a poor Championship side. Need to be more clinical in front of goal and the passing tonight at times was shaky. But we are in the hat for the next round which is the main thing.
William: We were very attractive and structured at the back, but Daichi Kamada and Jefferson Lerma struggled to link it through to the front three. If Eze doesn’t rescue us with a bit of magic, I’m not sure what the plan is really.
Mike: It is becoming well known by coaches that we are not good at defending high balls into the box and QPR exploited that. Tyrick Mitchell is not playing well and some of our passing was way off as we continue to give away the ball far too easily. We did win, but we were not comfortable. We still have a lot to do and we must get better if we are go to survive
Chris: Not good enough, simple as that. Us Palace fans are not asking for beyond our means. Ten years in the Premier League and we scraped past QPR with a near full-strength squad. One or two top-10 finishes when we’ve seen the likes of Wolves and even Sheffield Utd and Leeds come up and have enticing seasons. Yes, we’re known for exciting wing play, but results don’t show that.
Rob: A really difficult watch. We gave up possession so many times and the whole performance was disjointed. The run of form at the end of last season seems a million miles away right now.
Al: For all the possession throughout the game, we did not put the game to bed and that is something that needs addressing. Another game too, conceding early in the second half is a concern. Pleased for Eddie Nketiah getting his first goal but Thank goodness for Eze. Kamada in a central midfield role allowed him to show what an intelligent player he is.
