Full reaction over the next two days but brief thoughts. - Bristol City looked bright in the first half, but Palace were clearly on top. - Poor defending and a silly foul on the edge of the box hand the goals to the Championship side. - McNeil and Mingueza both played well, good linkup and some excellent delivery into the box. - Chilwell poor, as was Mitchell. - Pleased with the substitutes. Doucour茅 was strong and the academy boys looked bright too, Chuks maybe a tad nervous but Sealey especially - bags of confidence. - Result means very little, again Palace created lots of chances, and the actual football being played is getting better and much more fluid. #cpfc

Even our so called 2nd team should of least pickled up a win worse case draw today 5-6 of those players are starting 11 Means very little I don鈥檛 agree. It means what ever system we鈥檙e playing defensively is crap and isn鈥檛 working. An the so called depth isn鈥檛 good enough

Irrelevant for confidence ? Irrelevant to show a player should be picked for next game ? Irrelevant for understanding the system sage is trying to play ?
