"Eze is a quality player, he literally glides through people. It’s nice having someone on your wavelength and that’s a tricky player as well because I know half of the stuff he’s going to do so I just position myself to get the ball. It’s been a joy."
- Wilf on Eze

🗣 Declan Rice: “Some fans said Wilfried spat at me but I didn’t see anything. I have seen clips of it and it looks like he just he just spat on the floor. So I agree with Zaha that nothing happened. He really didn’t do anything.” [Source: The Mirror]

Everyone taking delight in the Brighton drama - let's concentrate on thinking of the victim, not how it'll affect Brighton's points total or what chants we use, yes?

🗣 Patrick Vieira on Zaha:
“He loves being at this football club. I think he will realise how important it is when the career is finished. This is when you will realise what you have been doing for a football club and how special it is.”

🗣 Zaha: “It's not moaning for the sake of moaning, I just demand from my team. I demand the best from the team that's why I go around moaning, and it seems negative but it's like 'I know we're better than this, I see you lot week in, week out.”

""I thought he was a turning point for the leadership in this virus. I think that it's easy for us always to point towards the top six clubs...but I think the biggest leadership we have seen being demonstrated from Steve Parish"

There is an incredible injustice in the action to fine

The best you could say about the referee was that he was incompetent and guilty of unconscious bias on a ridiculous scale.
The discussion on referee respect is constant but you cannot respect
Hughes at 10 ✅
Schlupp on the pitch ✅
Richards dropping to make 3 CB’s despite it not working well in any game so far ✅
No pace in the side, leave it all on the bench ✅
Hand initiative to a struggling opponent ✅
Refuse to turn to youth to cover absence ✅

"By winning at the Amex Stadium, the south Londoners became the club with the largest proportion of top-division points gathered away from home among the 65 clubs to have played at the highest level of English football."
What. A. Stat.

“He is good with the younger players. He understands that we are just trying to impress and he knows how much he can help. So, he is always there to have words with you and try to nurture you.”

🗣 Zaha: “You’ll be seeing me take corners, free-kicks soon enough! Why am I limiting myself? So today I see a penalty came and, yeah, it’s me taking it… As long as I keep scoring them you’ll see more of me, don’t worry.”

Oh look, Franca is excellent and judging him off u21 games is foolish.
We scouted him extensively, we knew what we were getting. Needs patience but he needs opportunities too.

Clinton on Bowen:
"I think Bowen is a great player. I’m just a bit disappointed that he’s going to West Ham for a relegation battle, rather than a comfortable season in mid-table at Crystal Palace.”
Andros Townsend has no intention of moving to Newcastle or anywhere else after declaring he wants to stay at Crystal Palace "for many years".
Read here:
Not going to link the Daily Mail, but a stat from them: Palace will be the only side in EPL history to not score more than 2 in any game in a season and still stay up, unless they score 3 against Spurs.
