Crystal Palace (A) - Sat 6th April, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Still better than driving there, at least I can type this on the train. -;)

We went by car and got lost and when we finally arrived got dicked by Wimbledon 4-0. Fucked up on the way to Palace in that end of season 2-2 when both set of fans invaded the pitch.

Yep, a **** of a place to get to.

Is it KDB right wing to spam crosses into the box? If the leaks are true then Grealish, Haaland, Alvarez and KDB all start. That can only work with one of Alvarez or KDB on the right. KDB would be more productive there you’d think. Or maybe Rico is playing right back and instead of inverting is going to be right winger in possession? Really curious to see wtf Pep is up to.

Will be Avarez out wide, Kev will be keeping Phils position warm in the middle ready to sit on the bench on Tue watching Phil show him how it's done.

One of those games where their keeper will have his game of the season. Still should be beating these though.

Oscar Bobb, Bobb, Bobb! Buzzing for him, just what we need today too imo.

No Foden kind of shocked but hopefully Pep has the right of it saving him for Madrid

 

[urban genie]

Very happy with that

 

[Don Karleone]

Happy with that

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Great to see Lewis starting again and bobb in the side.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

That’s Bobb on

 

[red 2 hats]

Hope Alvarez isn't in a midfield role.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Decent starting XI that, although I’m surprised Bobb is in for Foden. I guess if we’re struggling Phil can come on and save the day!

Great to see Haaland starting again. Come on City!!!!

 

[RayCTID]

Liking that line up.

 

[Sky Blue]

Posters happy with the team means me shitting it.

Injured, he was limping after the game on Wednesday.

 

[mosssideblue]

Nice

The Clash once sang "I predict a riot." Well I predict a struggle. I'll be delighted though to be 4-0 up in 20 minutes, win 8-0 and be royally taken the piss out of. If only.

Alvarez in the middle is a bit so-and-so but might work better with better ball recyclers like Grealish and Bobb on either side
