Just watching the Cardiff game and can't help but think we didn't make the most of Gunnarssons talents.

For Cardiff he has clear instructions to get in the box at every possible opportunity. Whenever the ball is played out wide he will make a run into the box so he can get on the end of crosses. In fact I'd say he gets on the end of more than the centre forward(s).

The stats just prove it: 6 goals in 130 league appearances, and 5 already for Cardiff this year in just over 20 games.

That is a ridiculous difference.

Exactly what I was thinking. He is looking good for Cardiff, as is Turner.

 

[shmmeee]

He started doing it more when Thorn took over.

Coleman and Boothroyd both seemed to misunderstand the importance of midfielders in attacking play. Part of the reason it was so boring to watch.

That said, I do think Christie has a better long throw.

Scary to think that mere months after leaving us, him and Turner could be securing a trip to Wembley soon.

Just to rub it in, the BBC said earlier that both players were "good signings."

Less than a million for the pair: they were sale of the bloody century!

Boothroyd often mentioned that Gunnars was content to sit when he could offer so much more..... very odd.

All I've seen him do tonight is throw his arms in the air when one of his team gets fouled or pass the ball backwards! Oh and just give the ball away in centre midfield leading to a chance for Palace.


All the best

Wait til next season, when he's into his second season with them. Anything like ours, he'll be back to his sulky, selfish (shit) self

I've got it on in the background but have to agree he's done fuck all.

Palace to win on pens.

 

[The CableGuy]

He's done something, he's got booked.

 

[scroobiustom]

that Zaha looks a different class, wouldn't mind him on loan next season in league 1

 

[Lord_Nampil]

He looks fitter and more intelligent with the ball than he ever did with us !!! It shows you his head was clearly never right after that first season!

 

[The CableGuy]

Now he's hit the bar!

 

[Lord_Nampil]

still cant head mind !!!

 

[Nick]

Free header too

Good luck to cardiff, would like to see gunnar and turner do well!

 

[The CableGuy]

You wonder if its Cardiff's night, they've had a love affair with the woodwork tonight.

 

[LastGarrison]

Gotta love pens.

 

[The CableGuy]

Gotta love pens.

Consider this training for Euro 2012.

 

[Nick]

Wonder if he will take a pen.

 

[Nick]

Palace were shocking, grown men who cant hit the target on a pen?

 

[The CableGuy]

Wonder if he will take a pen.

He won't have to.

Very poor penalty shoot out!
