Sane - Gab Jesus - Sterling
Bernado - Gundogan
Dinho
Delph - Mangala - Ota - Walker
Ederson

Zinchenko in for Delph if he is injured
Merlin in for Bernado if he is back in time

Hopefully a comfortable win and our defenders keep Zaha under control
 
I keep seeing keep Zaha quiet , he has one assist in the last 21 games and that was last night ? Nobody ever thought 'oh we must keep Navas quiet' when they played us

Palaces home record - P.10, W.3, D.3, L.4, F=14, A=18

Last night was their first loss since Southampton beat them in their third home game.

Since the Southampton defeat (first 3 games all lost) they have scored 2 goals in every PL game at home.

We are by far the best team they will have faced but they are dangerous from set pieces and on the counter, Pep will know this and will drum it into the players.

One goal will probably not be enough to win this match so lets hope we achieve a better conversion ratio than at Newcastle for all the chances we create.
 


Roy Hodgson talks about the City game 6 Minutes in and it sounds like Crystal Palace will be resting a few against us on Sunday. He sounds way more interested in Southampton game next Tuesday. Does anyone else get that feeling from him?
 
Behave, I'm not advocating that. Ultra negative play from our opposition, with the worst example being Newcastle, does pose a problem for Pep and the team and not just in getting the result.
That's so not true. We've scored more goals in the last fifteen minutes than anyone and that's because our game plan wears them out. Not us.

Our issue against Newcastle was poor finishing and hitting the post three times.

Fair enough, then explain why Newcastle had so much in the tank those last ten minutes?

Yep, sounds to me he's keeping his powder dry for Southampton.
