There's going to have to be a bit of shuffling around this summer. I think we will see some departures as well as some new arrivals, but, yes, I do agree we need someone who is more consistent at sticking the ball in the back of the net.
One thing's for sure, Sanogo isn't that player. I sincerely hope we don't make a move for him. Rarely have I seen such a lazy player.

Quite a few at HOL & BBS seem to think there must have been a clause in the loan agreement for him to get a certain amount of game time. not only is he lazy but his basic ball control is shocking and he doesn't seem capable of reading the game at all.
I have a sneaky feeling we might offload Dwight Gayle this summer. I'm just not seeing where he fits in any more, especially if Pardew continues with the main system he's been using.

31min: Having now seen a replay of the incident, it's definitely a deliberately raised arm from the Blues captain who was sliding across goal. Palace are very unfortunate not to win a penalty.
With the shot also on target, is there a case for the Blues captain to be sent off for denying a goal scoring opportunity as well?

If that incident had happened in our area I would have been bloody annoyed if a penalty had been given so I can't be hypocritical here, to me it wasn't a penalty. He threw himself to block the ball, which was hit hard, and it caught part of his arm. It would have been a harsh decision.
i thought we showed them far too much respect yesterday especially in the first 20 mins of the 2nd half... i had hoped we would have a right go at them... but it just never happened...
these are the days when I hate football. Palace 1-2 United
how did we lose that?! we were all over them in that 2nd half. De Gea keeps them in the game and then one half chance they score, and mainly thanks to Speroni & Delaney running in to one another. we didn't deserve that. gutted.
I didn't think their pen was one, however ours was and you can't give theirs without giving it to us. Just highlighted how bad the inconsistencies are.
I thought that we played very well at times and a draw would have been a fair result.
The Murray miss was heartbreaking, but De Gea had a blinding game and is worth his price tag. However their second goal wtf was speroni doing!
Really annoyed. How could the ref give a penalty from his position and with Dann turning his back to him? Surely he's only given it because of Young & Rooney's reaction? There is no way he could have judged that a handball from where he was and the speed that the ball was travelling.
First half was disappointing, much like the Chelsea game last week we showed the opposition too much respect. Second half we were terrific, a draw was the least we deserved overall. If it wasn't for De Gea we would have won. Great save from Murray but let's be honest here, he shouldn't have had the chance, Glenn should have buried it.
Another disappointing home result , this time we deserved a draw .at least . What's the betting that next week a dodgy penalty for Liverpool in Gerrard's last home .

All level with a minute to go, you betcha that will happen! And he'll be the one to take it.
i just want the season to be over with now... we done enough yesterday to get a draw, if not win the game, we're just not getting any breaks right now... i'm a bit fed up with it all, i can see us getting nothing in the final 2 matches also.... roll on the summer break...
