Best individual Performances before and against 14:31 - Apr 14 with 4071 viewsAntti_Heinola

This is probably a better one - best individual performances you've seen for and against us.

For:
Lee Cook v Palace
Adel v Swansea
Barker v Liverpool
Ferdinand away at Newcastle
Freeman v Leeds
Sommer v Aston Villa
Onuoha v Spurs (man to man on Bale)
Austin v West Brom

Against:
Lua Lua for Colchester
Suarez for Liverpool (at LR, 0-3 to them)
Giggs for Man U (3-1 when he got the individual goal)

Ah, more difficult this as I couldn't give a fk about the oppo. Anyway.

Bare bones.

Andy Cole hatrick for Burnley at LR.


Bloody Shaun Wright Phillips in the Cup for City at Loftus Road was an annoyingly good performance.

Jon Stead every time he played us.

Les was superb v Everton on many occasions. Bannister v Chelsea. John Spencer v Barnsley.

I missed the Stan era but I’m sure many on here will recall matches he was unplayable at times

Wouldn’t disagree with any of the performance Antti mentions but two that stick in the memory

Mark Kennedy V Middlesbrough at home 5-0 win. Brilliant performance in what was a total shock against a side gunning for promotion

Marc Bircham v Swindon. Penultimate game of the promotion season we won 1-0 and Bircham put in his best ever performance ran himself into the ground and just seemed to do the work of 2/3 players

Jerome Thomas on his debut for us, against whoever that was.

Andy Cole for Burnley was my first thought too, he barely moved a few yards and still got a hat trick.

The best would have been Rodney away to Charlton in the FA Cup 4th round 1970.

We were two down & being slaughtered for 30 minutes. but then Rodney started playing! He scored twice before half time & then presented Frank Clarke with an open goal for the winner. The Rodney chant came from all parts of The Valley & It was as if the home fans joined us in acclaiming the maestro! (The ground held over 70,000 at the time & looked empty even though there was over 30,000 present).

An honourable mention for Chris Day away to Blackpool in the 1-0 win in 2004.

Against us I go for two that you did:-

Lua Luia for Colchester, but mine was in the first leg at Colchester! We won 1-0 but derserved to lose by at least eight!

Suarez in the same game, but he was bloody good in our 3-2 win as well!

Lee Camp v Tranmere in 03/04, saved a penalty and basically had a stormer that night, played a massive part in us going up

Paul Parker v Everton in 87, won everything against in the air against first Graeme Sharp and then another giant forward, incredible performance

Danny Maddix v Ian Rush, can't remember the season but didn't give him a kick, was always superb when given those man to man roles

Adel v Chelsea in the 1-0 away win

Against
In 87 when we were top of the league we went to Anfield and lost 4-0, John Barnes and Ronnie Whelan were absolutely superb for them

Also a 2-1 home defeat to Newcastle around 94, Peter Beardsley was sensational that day

For: Numerous by Stan. Les and then Bradley Allen v Everton, Dennis Bailey v MU, Stainrod at Newcastle in 82 and Wilkins and Reid v Palace away in the 80s.
Agsinst; Peter Taylor for Orient and Andy Johnson for FFC. Also Andy Cole when he was taunted.

For

Dave B mentioned two
Parker v Graeme Sharp in 87 - PP outjumping Sharp time and time again
Adel v Chelsea 1-0 at theirs - masterclass
I'd add
Les in the 5-3 win at Everton
Clive Wilson in the 3-0 win there later that year, Allen got the hat-trick, Wilkins got MOTM but Wilson was unreal!

Against

Barnes - the 4-0 loss at Anfield
Batty - a 1-0 loss at HQ in early 96, I think. Didn't give the ball away once.

Wegerle home to Luton in the 6-1 stands out. Most of Adels game in 2010/11 Bannister T home to Chelsea on numerous occasions.
Hoddle and Waddle when spurs beat us 5-2 at home in 86
Alec Chamberlain in goal for Luton in a 0-0 a year before the 6-1. Some of his saves were world class.

Was that Tranmere away when Jerome Thomas made his debut? Great weekend in Liverpool and we won 3 - 2 with a late goal

one performance that springs to mind is Roy Wegerle in a 3-1 home loss to Arsenal. We scraped together a team due to an injury crisis, Wegerle took the game by the scruff of the neck and ran them ragged for 60 minutes, before they kicked him off the pitch.

I'll add Les Ferdinand in the win at Anfield, unplayable that day. And many.

Ross Barkley had a great 30 minutes against us in our win at Everton too! I was pished but began to sober up when I thought he’d nick a equaliser. He was only 16 or 17 I think.

Jimmy Bullard for Peterborough at LR


Bullard was fantastic against us for Wigan too.

I brought a Palace-supporting friend to see us play them during the De Canio period. He told me to watch what Shaun Derry did. If I hadn’t, I would have been mystified as to why we were playing so poorly, particularly Akos, who had been on top form. Watching the game the other way around, I could see Derry always immediately close to the ball when we were in possession, breaking it up, giving it to a team mate and disappearing into the background while his own team had it. All night long, 3-1 to them. I think I was the only fan delighted when we signed him.

That was the game when Wegerle spun Adams 35 yards out and smacked it against the crossbar. If that had gone in it would have won goal of the season hands down.
