Israeli player Anan Khalaily received a mixed reception from English media following Crystal Palace's 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest on Sunday. The win marked Crystal Palace's second of the season, improving their record to seven points and placing them 12th in the league, one spot above Manchester United.
Khalaily made a significant error that led to Nottingham Forest's first goal early in the match. This mistake drew criticism from English outlets, although his performance improved as the game progressed. The website RoundTable gave him a score of 6, noting his "catastrophic mistake" in the first half but acknowledging his improvement and "great crosses" that nearly resulted in goals. They added that while "defensively he looked vulnerable, as the second half progressed, it seemed he learned how to cope," and that he "prevented Dan Ndoye from creating dangerous situations for Forest."
Other outlets also assigned scores to Khalaily. Dave.sport also gave him a 6, while The False 9 awarded a 5, citing a "weak header" that allowed Ndoye to score. The False 9 also noted Khalaily nearly atoned for his error by setting up a chance for Jürgen Strand Larsen and that his penalty claim following a tackle by Murillo was denied.
However, Spanish journalist Pacio Mariscal, writing for Cadena SER, offered praise, stating Khalaily has "integrated wonderfully into the Premier League." Despite the challenge of replacing Daniel Muñoz, Mariscal believes the right winger "proves he has the necessary qualities" and called his signing "excellent."
