Back home from the game. Such a stroll and Palace were so comfortable in the first half.
2nd half we just looked like we were going through the motions.
Gayle took all his goals well. The first from a quick free kick that put him clean through and it was a good, powerful finish in to the far corner from an angle. Think the pass was from Guedioura? but not sure.
Second, you have probably seen on the video after Murray was fouled and 3rd was arguably the best runnning at the defence twisting and firing a left foot shot beyond the keeper.
No one else really outstanding but Murray, Bannan and Guedioura were all good. Bannan sat quite deep and dictated and switched play, some lovely passes. Thomas dangerous at times but he seems to hesitate a bit when in a dangerous position and looked a littlr shot shy. Jonny was decent.
Mariappa and rest of back 4 fairlt solid. Hennesey did OK but rarely tested, beaten when a second half shot cannoned off the post.
No real impact from subs as the game just petered out.
Hennesey 6 Solid but not much to do
Mariappa 6.5
Binnion-Williams 6
Delaney 6.5 Solid
Paddy 6 A couple of shaky moments
Guedioura 7.5 Physically strong and some good passes
Bannan 7 Very good on ball, calm, composed, a real passing range
Williams 6.5 Caused them a few problems
Thomas 6.5 As above
Murray 7 Busy and some nice touches, caused them problems
Gayle 8 - Three very well taken goals. Left the field after the game looking pregnant (presumably it was just the match ball)
Not sure if there is any point in a MOTM poll because I think we know who would win :lux:
