I sort of felt sorry for the players today. Particularly Brunt who got tormented by Zaha, played out of position, and got a nasty blow to the nose for his troubles. Brunt is one of many technically gifted players in this team who are having all of the football coached out of them. Berahino needs to get out soon for the sake of his career. He will struggle to get more than 8-10 goals a season with this style of play. It wouldn't surprise me if Pulis loses the dressing room at some point soon. The players look fed up.
That last thought crossed my mind today, May68, when Pulis, in his post-match interview, said the players looked 'flat and poor' compared to the previous week against Villa, and I wonder whether they want to play for him, or whether today was all about Palace completely negating Albion's play and making us look ordinary. Be interesting to get the views of people who were at the match today.
