These tactics make no sense. Spurs are pressing high up the pitch without playing a high defensive line. It’s a recipe for disaster.
ooofArsenal continuing their domination of bottom of the table teams.
My people call this a “Gylfi.”All the goals have come from the same problem, a turnover in midfield with the midfielders getting caught too high as the defenders drop off. There is no structure or cohesion.
Nah that's when the cops raid your home with a warrant for child pornographyMy people call this a “Gylfi.”
I’m watching, good start by PalaceWho else is watching El Gatwicko? Selhurst is fired up.
Palace robbed that one game from Brighton last year. It had to be one of the smash and grabs of the season for sure. I think they had like two touches inside the box and won 2-1. So yeah, this is a better performanceI know Palace got results against Brighton last year but this is like night and day from how those games went in terms of ball dominance and overall threat. Paddy is really doing some great work so far.
I don't want to jinx them before the match is over but Palace really do look pretty good. And the crowd at Selhurt really seems to appreciate it.Palace robbed that one game from Brighton last year.

Love this.Who else is watching El Gatwicko? Selhurst is fired up.
I heard it called that the first time on the Five Year Plan (Palace Podcast) last year, and it seems to have originated there -- and taken off to describe the match. If you google it, you'll see it called that, but only recently.Love this.
Yeah, it's entertaining. Dislike Brighton's kits, they look like toothpaste blobs
He could be a legend if he can stick around. It's only been 5 games and I'm ready for them to pay whatever it costs to get him. I loved Loftus-Cheek, and he was the best Chelsea loanee up until now, but Gallagher has been incredible.Love how Gallagher got absolutely cleared out there and instead of writhing on the floor for dramatic effect he just jumps up right out of his roll so that he could possibly still get in on the action.
I was thinking for the last ten minutes, I don't see Brighton threatening. They're much improved this season but Palace were tight.Wow, that hurts. I got a text reading "motherfucker" about 45 seconds before I saw the goal go in. And I thought, "he must be talking about something else." And then...that was the equal of the game last year.
I knew that precisely because they didn’t deserve it, it was going to happen.I was thinking for the last ten minutes, I don't see Brighton threatening. They're much improved this season but Palace were tight.
Then there was that.
A neutral would call it karma, candy that's just got to be a kick in the nuts.
Hostilities between the sides on the pitch and between the Brighton players coming off and the Palace fans. Hope there aren't some extracurriculars in the streets around the park tonight.
After waking up at 4:45am yesterday to watch the end of the 49ers game and then that ending last night, I probably need to stay away from sports for a little while.Fair play @candylandriots. Delayed watch for me. After the Yankees series I needed that ending. Last desserts.
