As it stood at 14.45 on the 9th

April, we we’re 12th.

Fast forward 6 weeks and 7 games, we have one less point and now 19th.

Unbelievable

I’ve just gone back to look at the Palace equalizer, had Meslier stood up instead of diving head first he’d have probably saved it…confidence was shot after that game, both keeper and the rest.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The turning point of that game was just before 1/2 time where a completely needless freekick was conceded on the edge of our box - by Roca I believe. Players were having a go, visibly from the East Stand, at each other as the whistle blew for the break, I still believe that continued.

We'd been under pressure and needed to get to 1/2 time, but let them in. That created the lift Palace needed ... the rest as they say is in the history books.

But that result and the 2nd half performance set us up for relegation.

Hear many blaming Meslier, who has made mistakes for sure. But that guy has been behind the most porous defence in living memory .... I'm not sure many keepers would have done much better. Maybe he didn't command his defenders - but then he was often the "kid" in amongst other more supposed experience. The managers, all of them until Sam, kept picking him first.

We're picking on the wrong reason we're going down, if as likely we do. Firmly in the attack for me. Too many games we simply didn't take guilt edge chances and got sucker punched by teams.

We, as a team, just kept inviting pressure. If/when we go down, it's because the team, in its entirety, haven't been good enough.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Or how about the confidence of the back 4 was always affected because of the keeper?

He's cost us time after time with the sort of mistakes you'd be lucky to see in a game of hungover blokes on a Sunday morning.

For instance Everton away. Awful game between, let's face it, two awful sides. Goalless draw written all over it. Then Meslier lets THAT goal in.

If we'd managed said goalless draw we'd be just outside the relegation zone now with our destiny in our own hands.

It was a calamitous mistake, because of who it was against. But far from his only one.

The moment I accepted we were down was when Meslier flapped Bournemouth into a 2-0 lead.

I'm not even anxious today.

Somehow we still had a chance last week but completely blew it.
