Eddie Nketiah

26% possession, one shot in the first half.

kind of broke from, you know, Fulham had a lot of the ball, not too many ideas, and Nguyeza, the wing-back, pushed on, putting a great cross, and Eddie Nketiah, the striker, with a really good finish, but he said, okay, if you play this game again and again, I'm not sure how many times you come out one of the winners.

There was a lot of sitting in in that 5-4-1, chances for Fulham at set pieces, and from crosses into the area, and But as Rob was saying about having match winners at both ends, Dean Henderson is back for Palace now, played his first game back from injury, made a few really, really big match winning saves.

One was a really good one, point blank from Alex Iwobi when the ball dropped from a corner in the six yard box.

I say big win, important win for Palace at Fulham.

Eddie Nketiah scored the only goal.

Ismail Assar will still be unavailable for the game at Tottenham tomorrow.

And Sunderland, with a heavily rotated side, found themselves in a position where they were struggling against Brentford and within a heartbeat found themselves 3-0 up.

kind of broke from, you know, Fulham had a lot of the ball, not too many ideas.

And Mgweza, the wingback, pushed on, putting a great cross and Eddie Nketiah, the striker, with a really good finish.

But you said, OK, if you play this game again and again, I'm not sure how many times you come out one of the winners.

There was a lot of sitting in in that 5-4-1, chances for Fulham at set pieces and from crosses into the area.

Obviously, it was important for them midweek to get that win over Fulham in the Carabao Cup.

Important, I think, from a psychological perspective for someone like Nketiah to get a goal in this game.

He obviously started the game and got brought off as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if he features in the game this weekend.

Of course, you know, I'm going to say that, and then they're going to outperform us this weekend.

But Jeremy Pino and Eddie Nketiah, the other forwards, haven't shown me too, too much.

Nketiah can pop up for a goal occasionally.

I think Tyreek Mitchell as a wingback is a pretty good player.

Sorry.

Eddie Nketiah got that goal.

Hopefully, he's not starting tomorrow.

I don't want him coming on scoring.

As soon as I saw that Nketiah was the third choice forward and the fact that Anderson was part of our back four, it was inevitable for the fans that we were never going to win this match.

And indeed we didn't.

But I really felt that perhaps we should have won it fairly easily in the first half.

And you go, okay, under Glasner, fair enough.

But the fact that they can just rinse and repeat with any XI, it doesn't matter the XI.

Another awful stat was that Nketiah's got his last four goal involvements against English opposition.

so not counting the conference league, have all been against Fulham.

We seem to be the only team that

I think I was hoping Madison was going to be out because I think he's going to make the difference tomorrow.

i would take a draw from it personally i really would i think a draw where you know it's not conceding a lot or even like in terms of sarge's future i would take like a 2-1 loss i think i'm very happy to do that obviously if there's a battering i think he might be going but it's just added pressure on a game that we didn't need more pressure on realistically so that is also frustrating as well um Nketiah scoring as well.

Sean Larson hopefully back soon.

Mateta will be fine.
