In this episode, we break down individual performances from a challenging Friday night under the Selhurst Park lights, assessing how Pierre Sage’s side held up against Manchester City’s clinical attack. We analyze the standout moments of fight across the pitch—including Yéremy Pino’s sharpness that forced the goal and the hard graft put in without the ball—alongside the defensive lapses and structural gaps that were ruthlessly exposed in transition. We also review the impact of second-half substitutions and assess what the squad needs to sharpen up ahead of the upcoming fixtures.
