There was maybe a little of the unknown quantity in Hudds also. We saw how effective they can be last season and they have added a real goal threat in Mounie. I did suggest in another thread that Hudds might surprise a few teams early in the season especially, hopefully we can do similarly...
I wonder if he really thinks they played alright? I have a Hudds supporting mate who was at the game who thought very differently (except for RL-C who he was very impressed with.) I haven't seen many posts from Palace fans that would agree either (apparently the boos were very evident at 0-2...
Obviously I couldn't care less but I don't understand the Palace strategy at all. They had a style of play that suited them with pace on the counter attack and scrapped that in favour of a "possession based game." That had them heading for the trapdoor so they brought Allardyce in to keep them...
Hmm oh well, doubtless a "top manager" will rectify that immediately.
