Absolute rubbish against us. So shit he was subbed at half time as Lua Lua ran rings round him.


Was he playing full back for Palace then if Lua Lua ran rings around him? He played centre midfield for us tonight and was our best performer in the second half. He was quality on the ball and has that burst of acceleration to dribble past players and create also. Very excited to see how he develops, he will be a Wales starter for certain in the future.


Lua Lua Bossed his position and Williams looked like a division one player at best that's why he got subbed at half time. Maybe it was a one of game but he looked really poor, hence, Why he was subbed. He couldn't get to grips with our system and if he can't handle our system then he'll be an average player.

But Lua Lua is a winger and Williams is a midfielder, so unless Palace played Williams out of position, I don't understand how Lua Lua and Williams could have been having a personal battle against each other? Perhaps Williams' poor performance was because he was being played out of position?

Does it f*cking matter if the lads a Jack or not, if he's good with the ball he can play for us. I personally feel should we go up and Palace don't we certainly have a chance of nabbing him. What a talent he is, came on for our stand out player with such pressure on his shoulders and changed the game.

Sorry to piss on this brighton supporter's chips but Williams was Palace's best player at the soulless bowl that is the american express community stadium. We were crap though so it's not saying much, but Joniesta (nickname given to him by his team-mates a few years ago) was doing well in Centre Mid, not sure what game this weed fan was at cos Lua Lua wasn't running rings round anyone (he's probably thinking of Ashley (Jazz) Richards though who played Right-back)

Anyway. Jonny is a Palace fan and has been since the age of 8. Man City's David Platt has been watching him on about 5 occasions this season and City are supposedly interested.

Second youngest every Wales U21 international behind Gareth Bale, I think it is. He made his Palace debut away at brighton last year aged 17 when we shat on them 3-1 to be the first team to beat them in the league which will forever be in the history books, and he was immense that day. Sadly broke his leg for Wales U21s and then had a few niggling hamstring injuries after being rushed back a bit too quickly.

Used to play right-back for the academy to begin with, then right-mid and eventually centre mid. Certainly his best position is CM though. His driving runs (like the one to help set-up your equaliser last night) are what makes him so good, along with an uncanny ability to make the ball stick to his feet.

You've got ZERO chance of buying him btw. Not being rude or anything, but he's going to the top. Liverpool were trying to buy him before he had even played a game for us. Our co-chairman has just said pretty much that we won't sell him until AT LEAST summer 2014 (in reply to a fan) http://www.cpfc.org/forums/showpost.php?p=10930587&postcount=6 http://www.cpfc.org/forums/showpost.php?p=10930897&postcount=13

I think we have a chance to sign him. He could do a Moses and go to a lower premier league team where he knows he can get game time and then move to the top. However you come up in the next couple of seasons I can see him staying for a long time at Palace.

One for the future no doubt.
