Got the record for most crosses, now going for the opposite
Decent half. Make more chances in the second half and the goals will come.
How are we not winning 3/4-0
Why is Mata not taking free kicks?
Needing to quickly curl the ball in a first time shot with your worst foot doesn't qualify as a moronic miss to me.
He has been a plus for me so far and is playing well. I'm not his biggest fan, but the hate in here is ridiculous.
RVP has missed worse.
Quite liking the look of fellaini today, not too bad so far and that is coming from someone who called him a useless wanker and a waste of money.
Fellatio has done well imo. Certainly offered a lot more than our other midfield options do.
Has he taken one while he's been here?
Because we've created very little clear chances.
Fellaini has been good. Better than our £37M signing at least.
It's been better than the same play of lump it to the wings over and over we've been accustomed to these last few weeks.
There's been at least ten
Decent play, more watchable than a few weeks ago.
But no way through so far, and Fellaini should've bloody scored. He's done quite well though, apart from that..
We need to win this one

Ahhh thats what we are doing wrong
What? Most of it is praise for him doing completely simple things like 5 yard passes and breaking into the area.
To be fair, that was perfect place for a right footed player.
Plus it is prob in Rooneys contract....
Because we've not created much.
I'm very happy with that half. Not finding out football horrific is a pleasant chaNge.
You are one of the very few sane posters here. Chapaeu bas
Why the Fellaini abuse? Other than the poor finish, he's been decent.
Poor half overall, we still look like a nothing team. Only a couple of decent chances to speak of.
Your post would be spot on, were it not for the bolded part. This has easily been Hernandez's worst season here, his first touch has gotten worse seemingly.
We look more solid and compact but chance creation and speed of play against a bus remains an issue.
Impressed with Fellaini minus the miss. Looks comfortable rather than cautious.

That's true, I actually think he has done well overall so far, especially considering it's his first game in ages.
Palace cant keep this up. We will score.
been a bit unlucky.

It's okay so far I thought Palace would be all over us. They're solid but we'll break them down at some point. Worth mentioning again, Arsenal and city were 0-0 at home at the break to Palace too.
We have all the dynamism of a sloth.
Rather dull half. Promising that we are trying to go down the center far more, as generally our better chances/plays have come as a result of that. We need to lift the tempo in the second half
Typical Caf' really, if it wasn't him it would be someone else getting it
Whats this thing we're doing today where when we dont have the ball we make runs? Is that allowed in modern day soccer?
Yep. He's done alright. Much better than previous appearances and he's coming back after a long break.
I believe the ball being on his weaker foot, made the chance much harder. Nevertheless, he still should have done better.
Ridiculous the improvement in the way we are playing. Imagine what we'll be like after the players are used to this after a few games.
We miss sth in the final third but overall it was an ok performance. Fellaini was pretty good I thought. Smalling as a RB just isnt working though.
Palace have been working hard off the ball. We've seen this before many times. It's very hard to do for 90 minutes...
If we keep going, we'll carve them open a few times in the second half..

"Decent" against what standard? Yes, he deserves some slack for this being his first match in three months but my God he's got a long way to go before he's "decent".
We have to raise -- or better put, restore -- our standards, mates.
Just got in and watched the last 10 minutes, how've we been overall?
Fellaini is man of the match so far.
I like him,think he will come good.
He could score a hat trick and the haters would find fault.
Fella needs to keep his head up, we know he can finish, just needs to keep making those forward runs/drives. Much better than having him fecking standing inside the box waiting for the lob.
We should be a couple up really but atleast we looked like a half decent side in that half.
