HALF TIME: Crystal Palace 0 - 0 Manchester United

Manchester United performance have improved since their 7 nil thrashing of Barnsley in the EFL. Manchester United have been dominant in this game. Ball possession 67% while Crystal Palace 33%. United have 4 shots on target but have not been able to find the net. Manchester United need to apply more pressure in the second half so they can get a goal.
The game ended on a draw although I was not opportune to watch the game, but based on the live score that I saw about the game, I know fully that Manchester United played better than Crystal Palace, which I can say Manchester United didn’t put in the effort needed or they were not lucky if not based on the live score I saw, Manchester United performed was a great one because they had a total of 18 shots in the whole of the game and a total of 6 shots on target, which from the side of Crystal Palace they had lower performance although the game ended at a draw but Manchester United tried their best.

Personally, I think Manchester United deserved victory in this game because they their performance was much better than I expected despite their inability to score a goal, Manchester United dominated the game from the first half and make 4 goal attempts in less than 30 minutes of the game but they failed to find the back of the net until the final whistle.

Going to to last season when Manchester United was struggling in the league Crystal Palace defeated them home and away I still remember the 4:0 trashing which was the last defeat but the game today United were better in all round I was surprised to see United playing 11 corners in the game which is they have not recorded in a long time.

Was also surprised with Manchester United performance against Palace and am impressed regardless that the game ended in a draw but had it been that Manchester United puts in efforts like they did today in most of their matches they wouldn't have been facing too many problems at all.

Last season Manchester United was faced with lots of challenges as they were struggling in the premier league that was the reason why Crystal Palace beat them both home and away. Today's game showed that manchester united will likely be up to something positive this season even though it looks like they are not too stable but with time we will see the best of the team.

Crystal Palace brought Manchester United from their high horse down to reality. After beating Barnsley in the EFL Cup, I thought Manchester United had returned to the top side I once knew under Sir Alex Ferguson. From today’s game, I have to say Manchester United have not really improved. They played well in the first half and missed a lot of their chances but Crystal Palace were attacking more in the second half of the game. It’s great to finally see Onana give United the performance they were hoping for when they signed him.

Underestimate- nothing
West Ham United possessed ball more today but Chelsea defence was good today and Nicolas Jackson displayed his real talent today. Normally Nicolas Jackson is a good player but the finishing part was the issue he was having and as you said, he has been working on that weak part of him and he is overcoming it gradually. And as it was said by some commenters before, in this season Chelsea is trying more that the previous seasons. And it is recommendable.
We pray that they should continue like this. West Ham United is a strong team and we can see it from the match today.


Today was an amazing day for Chelsea and west ham did not see this coming it was more of a bull hit coming from Chelsea to West and I was just surprised at jacksons activiness in today's performance and he was the man of the match and he did everything possible to keep focus in today's game and a lot of people might even been wondering that what have came over Chelsea and scoring two goals for him self and also givin one assist is the best, the effort was amazing actually. And if is what he did actually did overcome his weaknesses and he was able to archive what he as already target in his mind because he was doing the most during the game, and all goal signals were from him and Chelsea will be really  proud of him,  Chelsea is showing some positive signs that they might be doing very well this season no one expected then to be this consistent, with time we are going to know if they are actually going to be among the top 3 because Arsenal with their new pattern is going to bring us down this season and arteta needs to get everything right.

Funny to see the Red Devils failed to accumulate three points against Crystal Palace. How can one explained the enormous victory against Barnsley, scoring huge 7-0 against a second division team and when they meet their main EPL opposition, they held a 0-0 draw game.
That's even a more reason why Man United should draw the game. I already knew they wouldn't do well when it comes to crystal palace because the expectations would be to scramble crystal palace and hence the team wouldn't prepare much as it's a weaker team but since crystal palace are always on a defensive game on their home, they made sure man united tested no goals.

We can't compare the force in crystal palace to the 7:0 win man united achieved with Barnsley, it's a two different thing. crystal palace might be rated below their straight but it's not a simple team to scramble and achieve the 3 points so Manchester United tried their best not to take the goals hence crystal palace would have made an achievement of at least 1 goal that would have broken United fans.

Chelsea might be leading and the fans are happy but for the first 20mins both teams was showing that unseriousness in the game, after 25mins of the game West Ham took absolute control of the game till the end of the first half. Chelsea are not even in the game, the team has no flexible midfielder and with Palmer out of the equation the team can't hold the ball for a minute. Going to the defenders, Fofana has been terrible with and without the ball, he can't make a clear marking without offending the player talking about Summerville who has been making life hard for him (Fofana). And why are the defenders of Chelsea including the keeper (Sanchez) always building from the back with poor passes?  Sanchez has been lucky with those weak passes from what have seen.
I just hope the second half won't be as bad for West Ham, they have gotten their mojo back and they need to keep pressing till they get a goal which I'm expecting this second half. Enzo Maresca should be more effective while making his sub in the second half because at half time player like Madueke hasn't been in the game, Enzo still have enough option to make the game be in favor of the Blues.
When all these words you are voicing out would have been put into thought would have been if peradventure Chelsea loses to West Ham at the end of the match after leading with two goals in the first half. But so long as Chelsea wins West Ham with 3 goals, Chelsea fans won't feel bad and annoyed that Chelsea is operating from the back with poor passes. However, Chelsea is a bit stronger in their defense line despite their poor passes from the back, that's one thing that should be noted.

You're correct but you should understand that each time Chelsea performance is nothing to write home about they win and when they play well they lose, that's what I noticed maybe not in all games but that's it for me, so they need to change that initiative and try to make their performance look solid. I know the fans are happy at the 0-3 win but their sluggishness is too much, the midfield is not even what you can say did well, Caicedo and Enzo in that midfield is a no no for me. Is best to have Enzo than the man Caicedo, the two players don't have that much connection. Caicedo always playing the ball back at the defense which causes much pressure on the shaky defense of Chelsea, which isn't suppose to be, they need someone special to help out the DM position.
No doubt, Chelsea showcased a sluggish performance I wasn't expecting but because of their win, I tried to let that slide. But had it been, Chelsea played against a tough team with this kind of performance they showcased today, it would have been a loss match for them that they would have ended up conceding many goals before the end of the match. I think, in Chelsea's next match against Brighton, Enzo Maresca wouldn't like to play Caicedo and Enzo together in the midfield or use the same sluggish pattern of today's match against West Ham to play against Brighton, which likes attacking their opponent with full force and also plays fast football.

The Crystal Palace vs Manchester United game ended with the same scoreline it was at halftime. Winning against Barnsley doesn't necessarily mean that Manchester United gave improved if you ask me. For a fact, they dominated the game as well as created more goal scoring chances than their host but it didn't stop them from losing two points at the end. I've said it countless times here that Manchester United problem is their manager and unless they sack and replace Erik ten Hag with a better manager, they'll continue to remain inconsistent with their performances

I can not say Chelsea is a better team now but it is better than West Ham that has lost many matches this season. West Ham has not started well at all. Chelsea is opportune to play with small clubs in English Premier League after the club played with Manchester City but which was the only match that the club lost. Let us see what will happen because only 5 matches has just been played out of 38 matches that we are going to. I hope Chelsea will perform better.
When Chelsea are in good form, victory over West Ham can be achieved a little easier. We realize that the gap in squad depth has given Enzo Maresca a lot of advantages, West Ham who acted as the host could not do much this time. Statistically, West Ham looks more dominant, but Nicolas Jackson and his colleagues played more effectively. The additional 3 points made Chelsea successfully occupy 4th place in the standings, while West Ham had to be willing to occupy 14th place.
This is the 3rd victory for The Blues in a row, since the last time they lost to Servette in the Europa Conference League at the end of August. I agree with you in assessing Chelsea at this time, although they are starting to show signs of revival, we are still hesitant to say that they are now it's better than last season.
Enzo Maresca needs to prove this consistency in the next 3 matches, against Barrow (League Cup), Brighton (Premier League) and Gent (European Conference League), which in my opinion are 3 matches that are a little easy, it is a good momentum to gain fans trust.

I'm completely against Enzo Maresca the coach of Chelsea now. We all know Chelsea spent already a huge amount of money but they never could get good results and they mostly failed in the important games, they couldn't even stay on the top side of the table yet after buying many players and making huge and expensive changes for this team.
Hiring new and expensive players couldn't help Chelsea at all.
But even after the disappointing results they got, Enzo Maresca the coach of this team recently said they have to buy more players to reach teams Manchester City and Arsenal, this means we are going to see Chelsea even spend more.

Manchester United's performance this season has been very erratic. So betting on each of their matches is risky. Out of 4 matches, Manchester United's performance is not good in a single match. However, out of 4 matches they have won 2 and lost 2. But I don't like the overall gameplay of this team. There are still many weaknesses within the squad.

Manchester United won the last EFL Cup match against Barnsley by a huge margin of 7-0. But since the performance of this team is very erratic. I think many gamblers are betting on Manchester United to win today as this team won 7-0 in the last match. However, United's performance against Crystal Palace in today's match is poor as usual. Neither team could score a single goal in the first half. Crystal Palace are keen to draw the match. So we don't see much effort from Crystal Palace players to score goals. On the other hand, Manchester United's players made several attacks, but could not score a single goal.
You are right mate, Ten Hag doe3not have any game strategy and that shows that he will finish on top for of the table this season because for a club to be successful, there must be a game strategy that is being used by the players and not trying your luck or is EPL gamble.

Manchester united is bigger than playing very well in other small competitions and not doing well in EPL which is the biggest league in England an d that shows that Ten Hag is turning United to an average club that will not be able to be in UCL to showcase their talents. It is better something is done fast because playing in UCL is the moat important thing a club will achieve at the end of the season.
That's true, because having a workable strategy has been one of Man-United biggest challenge ever since the season started, of which after a whooping 7 goals to nill was given to Barnsley, we all thought Eric Ten Hag was back on track, only to be met with such poor game performance we saw today, because no matter how good a team play, if they are unable to score goals just like today, it discourages gamblers more in trusting a club. And it was unethical for Ten Hag not to have started today's game without Marcus Rashford, as he has always been a good attacker and forward player whose whose presence could have created a significant impact, just as we saw in the last games between Southampton and Barnsley.

Slowly but surely Ten Hag has made Manchester United a mediocre club, it is difficult to say that they have developed for the better after being active in the transfer window last summer. Because in reality, Ten Hag was unable to bring his squad to win the match when facing a mid-table team like Crystal Palace, let alone an elite Premier League team. In 5 matches Manchester United have lost 8 points, this performance indicates that they will again fail to win a ticket to the Champions League at the end of the season, unless they succeed in winning the Europa League trophy by showing a different performance.

A big win in a smaller competition cannot save Ten Hag career this time, the management has supported him with a large budget to build squad depth, of course the club top brass are demanding better results than last season. If it is said that Manchester United still need time to adapt, it seems excessive, Rasmus Hojlund return from injury should have brought blessings to the squad. Maybe indeed, Ten Hag does not have the right strategy, the players cannot be blamed for the unstable performance.

Chelsea are just unpredictable. I like the way Enzo Maresca is building the Chelsea squad, we all can see clearly that there is a difference in Chelsea performance this season and last season. There is a great improvement in the Chelsea team, and we all saw how everyone played today. We all saw how Jackson was able to score two goals and one assist in the match. We know Jackson to be a player that’s not consistent, but his performance in today's match was so nice, and he contributed to the success of Chelsea today.

Palmer, who hasn’t been able to score in a few matches, was able to score the final goal for Chelsea in the match. Seriously,  all Chelsea players played well today, and Enzo Maresca made some nice substitutions in the second half of the match.

The additional 3 points made Chelsea successfully occupy 4th place in the standings, while West Ham had to be willing to occupy 14th place.
It’s just surprising to see Chelsea at 4th position, I never expected that, but honestly Chelsea really deserves it, but I will say Enzo Maresca still needs to work on some position, not that it’s so weak, but  those positions needs more improvement.

Manchester United's match strategy is not good. This is why the performance of this team is erratic. This team is not able to perform well consistently. This team is not able to do well against smaller teams. At the same time, against the big teams, Manchester United's defense broke down very quickly. Against Liverpool and Brighton we saw Manchester United's poor defence.

Manchester United need a stable match strategy. Good match strategy will strengthen the bonding between the players. But Ten Hag is yet to find a suitable match strategy for Manchester United despite being with the team for a long time.
Manchester United unexpected draw points today was absolutely out of line. None of these gamblers had a doubt about Manchester United to succumb to draw points. The stats of Manchester United in the 11th position on the EPL table, not good enough for standard club like the Red Devils. The coach have to make more arrangements if he persuades to push for greater heights in the English Premier League this season. Erik Ten Hag not happy with the current situation of the team, failing to meet targets and this is terrible condition for the club. Funny to see the Red Devils failed to accumulate three points against Crystal Palace. How can one explained the enormous victory against Barnsley, scoring huge 7-0 against a second division team and when they meet their main EPL opposition, they held a 0-0 draw game.

Halftime score 0 : 2, Chelsea winning with two beautiful goals from Nicholas Jackson, his finishes are notable and precise today, Cucurella is really impressing me with his availability when needed defensively, he's been a good boy today. Enzo is a great captain who's always supporting his team's midfield defensively and offensively today.
This is the easiest of games for Chelsea. Just 120 seconds in the second half Enzo with the combination of Nicolas Jackson has given Chelsea a third goal, it's now 0:3 in favour of Chelsea. It's going to be extremely difficult for Westham to turn the tides.

Today everything seems to work perfectly for the Enzo Maresca side as both the Chelsea defence, midfield and attacking front is well confident, demonstrating a clinical performance and a 100% dominance on this game. Maresca is doing a great job in this club.

Yeah two goals in the first 20 minutes of the game then another goal in the beginning of the second half will make Chelsea play comfortably, yet they are still pushing and trying to add another goal.
Chelsea is the second in the table for the moment until we see the outcomes of the other matches.
West Ham United isn't doing well in this match nor in this season at all. They are receiving many goals and failed to stop the bad results.
the performance of Jackson wa sensational. From the moment he had possession of the ball I was afraid that with the little amount of players that were available for a pass that he was going to miss the clear chance. Like a matured attacker, he pulled it right through the leg of the goal keeper and had his first goal. Had a second goal and gave Cole Palmer a good assist that brought it all to a fantastic three goals. Another Great thing about the game is that despite the poor game Cole Palmer had that throughout the first half, he still found a way to put his name on the score sheet with the fantastic ballon shoot he gave.  The potential of the team is becoming better by the day and with every game that goes down, a clearer picture that Chelsea has what it takes to finish top 6 on the table continue getting clearer.
Sensational indeed! It's interesting to see Nicolas Jackson back to scoring goals again in the premier league, I hope he continues in this form as it's gonna make the attack front of Chelsea a big threat to their opponent with the composition of Cole Palmer and Nkuku there.  What am about to say it's a controversial position to hold which is if Jackson can improve his finishing quality and be able to convert all his chances this season to goals he's gonna get more goals than Haaland this season. It impressive to see that Enzo Maresca is gradually building a strong team with Chelsea that will be contending for the top four again. And someone we ain't talking about hiss output today is Sancho, he has also added some quality to Chelsea performance.

Manchester United performance have improved since their 7 nil thrashing of Barnsley in the EFL. Manchester United have been dominant in this game. Ball possession 67% while Crystal Palace 33%. United have 4 shots on target but have not been able to find the net. Manchester United need to apply more pressure in the second half so they can get a goal.
This would have been a sure games for Manchester United and they have all the chances to win the game.
 Fenerbahçe 1 Vs 3 Galatasaray. Galatasaray is doing well in the game again. Again Victor Osimhen didn't scored goals but did well in the game. Fenerbahçe did well but they were not lucky to win the match.

You have rightly described the pattern Manchester United have been playing this season, they have no exact pattern and rhythm, they just appear like they play to be lucky and hope to win especially their premier League games. It keeps feeling to me like ten hag is yet to get an exact premier league strategy to beat premiere league games but away from premier League he isn't doing really bad, unlike last season, at Crystal Palace home when place still has olise and eze at their Frontline, they were even more fierce than they are in today's game yet it wasn't enough advantage for United. I actually did anticipated a 0-1 win from Manchester United after all the failed attempts in the first half but it did felt like in the second half place and United equally shared dominance and ended with the goalless draw, this has left Manchester United remaining at the same position they were meanwhile i was expecting they go up the table again today considering they looked like they ahd an edge.

Manchester United game still goalless up till this time and we're on additional time already. I knew this game wouldn't be an easy one for Manchester United playing Crystal palace from away. Every efforts have been refuted and it all seems the two teams are going to share the points with one last setpiece remaining to decide the date of the game. Game over 0:0 final results

I actually predicted a 1-1 draw from my last reply, but was quite close to the 0-0 draw they played at full time. I knew united won't get that 3 points easily. Well, it was best they had to settle for a point each, rather than experiencing another disappointing results from them. United had more ball possession, but the palace's defense where fully active today. Maybe they were playing with the mindset they had when they defeated united 4nil the last time. But united wasn't ready to allow such humiliation. All I can say is congrats to both side for settling for a point each.

Manchester United's performance is not what I can say. A performance can't be called strong just by creating a lot of attacking opportunities. This is Crystal Palace's home match. And Crystal Palace have not been in a strong form this season either. So in this match we could predict that Crystal Palace players will play defensively. The Ten Hag should have found a match strategy to break down Crystal Palace's defence. But he failed. Manchester United's players could not score a single goal. And the match ended in a goalless draw.

Crystal Palace's defense is not very strong either. Crystal Palace had conceded goals in each of their previous matches. And it was the only match in which Palace did not concede a single goal. From this, it is understood that the condition of Manchester United is still quite weak.

I watched in the second half, this match was quite boring just seeing the home team really defending and doing more long balls. while United, they had difficulty breaking through the opponent's defense. no player dared to penetrate to try to penetrate the Crystal Palace defense area, even every time United tried to build an attack it always couldn't be utilized properly. it's only natural, every time Manchester United players try to penetrate the opponent's defense there will always be five or more Crystal Palace players defending. in this match Garnacho did not play optimally, as did Amad Diallo. these two players should have worked to disrupt the defense of Crystal Palace's full-backs. what's quite confusing, I don't understand why Ten Hag benched Marcus Rashford. maybe if he was the main starter, the situation would be different or Rashford would be used as a center forward again like the previous match in the EFL Cup. while the home team, only tried to take advantage of counterattacks or mistakes made by United players. no wonder, if the betting exchange gave these two teams almost the same odds. what is certain, United is far from stable and consistent.
