Crystal Palace (a) pre-match thread

Batshuayi on the bench is a plus too (hopefully)

Slight worry two players with dodgy injury records start, hopefully they won't break down.

Come on City

Let’s keep the pressure going

 

[Thomas Hearns]

Bit worried about Vin, they break fast and he's not shy to fly in with a lunging challenge.

No Dinho ? Injured or rested ?

I don’t watch any of the build up anymore on Sky or BT if watching just straight to the game at kickoff

I was watching the build up on NBCSN and had to turn it off, it was nauseating. Will turn it back at 9.04

Kompany and Laporte at the back with no Delph fills me with a lot of confidence.

Sky have 3 dippers at anfield with OUR trophy on their pitch,i'm sure they do it to wind us up

No choice until Bernardo is fully fit.

Foden? Although I think Dave plays better with Sane.

That team is decent with the exception of Gundogan, just my opinion but I don’t think he’s not strong enough defensively, if they load the midfield, he will easily get overrun. Hopefully we will see an early entrance of Bernardo for Merlin.

No choice really if Fernandinho is out. Nothing stopping our other midfield players from helping him out. If we need an early entrance for Bernardo, it would suggest all isn't going well or we have an injury. So I'll hope there is no early entrance for him.
