Decent work from Lawrence there following a good Roos pass but Malone's cross doesn't get off the ground, or past the first man.

Think it’s clear to see that Whittaker isn’t ready for first team football. Not good enough unfortunately... 

It's less that he's not good enough, and more that he's just not strong enough/aggressive enough. A bit of bulking would do him a world of good.

Thank God a positive post at last, been fed up of all the negativity so far today ?

Whittaker desperately needs to have some kind of impact on the game. Or go back to the U23s and regain his confidence. He's looked a lovely player in the academy but this is passing him by. Maybe if he can bag a goal it will all change for him.

On the whole a very good half. I suspect Palace will close down Hudds and Rooney in the second half, perhaps giving more time for Sibbo.

Agreed. He does look too soft and indecisive for now.

I think he has ability enough, just looks stuck in his head doubting himself. Needs to be more instinctive and back himself more

Roos comes out for the eventual cross and gets a flapping hand on it; but can't recover it. The next cross in is looped behind for a goal kick though.
