Not horrible. Glad we did not lose. My observation is that our team has no idea how to play a one touch pass. If we are just going to dink and dunk in the opponents half we will never find space to score. They have so much time to just reset the defense. Our best option in this game was to play passes over the top and hope to get lucky. We should have just done this all game considering what we are currently working with. Ten Hag needs to get our players thinking about where the next pass goes before the initial pass is made. If the defense collapses on the player about to receive, one touch it right back to the initial passer who again is thinking about who the next pass goes to. The opposition will get pulled out of its shape and we will have looks at goal. I assume this will take at least a season of progression to get down. I would like to see some progress particularly in games like this where we know we will hold so much possession. Good idea to play Mainoo and Eriksen considering the opposition had no teeth and Eriksen can play that pass over the top. But we did not go to it nearly enough. Also I think it is clear that Rashford should start. He was not as effective as Garnacho coming on and Garnacho did not have the legs to out speed the opposition at the end of the game when we needed it.
Keep it up Palace ABU 😎👍🏻

You don’t think Eriksen will play as 10?
