Crystal Palace (a) pre-match thread

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

More than 3. What about we win they draw for example? ;)

Yep.
No, I only gave the three that I was thinking about right now. What you suggest puts the ball in our court, imo, but only marginally. There's also: both draw. And something that's not going to happen: both lose!

 

[Kompany is King]

High tempo required.

Clinical in front of goal.

Win, no injuries or red cards.

 

[whp.blue]

High tempo required.

Clinical in front of goal.

Win, no injuries or red cards.

Surely this is the scenario for every game we play?

No, the derby should be low tempo, wasteful, a loss, a few niggling injuries, and a red card for United. ;-)

 

[york away to this!]

I've had the Ber-na-do song stuck in my head all day, it's a sign I tell you. What's the worst that could happen?...

 

[Sky Blue]

Who needs Pep eh ?

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

I’d go with
Ederson

Walker
Ota or Stones
Laporte
Mendy

Fern
Kev
Bernardo

Sterling
Sane
Aguero

The only players I’d rotate between now and the end of the season are the fullbacks and Aguero/Jesus.

Massive day,
Come on Blues (of the Manchester and London varieties)!!!

 

[kaz7]

Game day let's 'ave it

Ful on shark please

If we score don't go to sleep keep going

Looking foward to the day

 

[wattle]

Team prediction:

Ederson
Danilo
Stones
Laporte
Mendy
Fernandinho
Bernardo
Kevin
Sane
Aguero
Sterling

Hope so but doubt it

 

[stonerblue]

I'm taking my mrs to the boozer for this one.

If we don't win midweek, Bernardo wont have a song.

 

[7evens]

1-2.

Ederson
Danilo, Stones, Laporte, Zinchenko
Fernandinho
Sterling, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Sané
Aguero

Muric, Walker, Kompany, Mendy, Gundogan, Mahrez, Jesus

Is that the theme from the movie about the tornado full of St. Bernards?

Three scenarios by tonight. Given the games that are left for us and them:

We lose, they win. I honestly think it will be very, very hard to come back from that.

We win, they lose. We have a decisive advantage, but it's still not a done deal.

Both teams win. Nothing is settled. But I for one will be starting to get edgy.

Option 2 please

 

[lancs blue]

We win, they lose. We have a decisive advantage, but it's still not a done deal.

There's no way we're losing it from that scenario.

Palace are shite, they are safe from the drop, and it should be a piece of piss. However all the doom mongers have given me a bad feeling about this and I really am expecting a catastrophic afternoon.

If Liverpool are going to slip up it needs to be today I think. If they do they will slip again but win today and we might be having to win the lot including today.

 

[paulchapo]

This is the only game the scousers might drop points in my opinion so we have to win to keep as much pressure on as possible.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

There's no way we're losing it from that scenario.

I'm more cautious. We could fuck it up. We have history (I'm not a City fan for nothing…)

Palace aren't shit and as we know everyone raises their game against us. Their pace and physicality will cause us problems. Expect a tough afternoon.

Oh trust me I am expecting a bloody awful afternoon.
