thank god for that, i cant believe some of the bollox talked on here about resting players from the start of matches

Crystal Palace got themselves out of the relegation zone. They are in good form. However they'll be tired on Saturday. I say, give the kids a chance. Lopes, Fafana, Boyata, e]

ARE YOU INSANE, we need to win this game convincingly

LOL.
To be fair you're not a bad WUM.

 

[Plaything of the gods]

Would love 3 points from this one and be top of the PL at New Year, but this is just the sort of 'easy' game we might flop at. It has to happen some time.

umm, no it doesn't actually.

Yes it does. Like Everton today, for example.

 

[r.soleofsalford]

is that a rhetorical question

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

You heard it here first

 

[dctid]

Gotta wion this one make a few changes but hope we dont under estimate Palace

 

[mcfcphil]

Yaya will play. Always does. Kompany will play. Dzeko, nasri and milner will play. So fill in around that with probably nastasic, clichy and kolarov. Rodwell or garcia in for fernandinho.
I think you'll find silva plays as well basically because he's absolutely f*cking class and integral to the team - get the game won and bring him off.
It's possible to rotate and still keep the main bones of the team in tact

I'm tired. Give me a break. Was just wondering what team we could put out with 11 changes tbf. And completely forgot about Rodwell<br /><br />-- Fri Dec 27, 2013 1:16 am --<br /><br />Okay if I'm being realistic:

Hart
Zaba Kompany Nastasic Clichy
Rodwell Garcia
Milner Yaya Jovetic
Dzeko

Subs: Pants, Demichelis, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Nasri, Silva, Dzeko

Result 2-0: Dzeko and Yaya

NOW you've heard it here first

 

[Gabriel]

Only second in a tight race against a team fighting for its survival. Show Palace complete respect, yes, but go for the jugular immediately, then make three timely substitutions.Therecan be no room for complacency in this one.

 

[worsleyweb]

Hart
Milner Komps nasty Clichy
Ya ya fernandinio
Nasri silva
Dzecko
Guideti

Yeah more like it. No need for such extreme changes. We can rotate half the team and still have team full of top class internationals

you are forgetting that as good as Everton have been this season, we are a class above them, with better and more attacking players. Everton will finish between 7th and 5th this season, they have had a good run of form and have had some luck with injuries. I'm not saying it is guaranteed we will win all our home games but we have a lot more quality then Everton, not as likely for us to have our home run come to an end.
