Can't really explain that 1st half, but if i had to sum it up in one word, thar word would be - woeful.
No tempo, no cohesion, too much dallying on the ball and no decisiveness. Without knowing the exact stats, we've had about 70% posession for no shot's on target, and then a long ball header for Palace from Schlupp to Ayew and we're down 1-0, which could easily have been 2-0 not long after.
Pogba seems almost uninterested and is looking generally frustrated, and how Lingard keeps getting starts is beyond me, it's a little ridiculous. Don't know what Pereira did after the Chelsea game, but surely he has to be starting agead of Lingard.
I hope OGS gave them a serve during the break because that first half performance was bleak!
