Crystal Palace (H) | Pre-Match Thread

hardly ever were the words you needed to read.

Pep constantly praises Sterling for his ability to be fit and ready to play every 3 days, 60 times a season, that's why he always plays.

Foden's started 4 games in a row over 10 days, maybe he's showing it physically. Giving him a game off before Wednesday is not a crime.

Good line up surprised that zaha isn’t even on the bench for palace never mind playing,let’s hope both sterling and g.jesus have a better game than last time,Cmon City huge incentive tonight..

 

[PragueBlue]

Walker is faster - and that’s what’s needed against Zaha

He's also a better defender but Zaha isn't playing anyway.

 

[Don Karleone]

I like that team personally.

More than good enough.

 

[DATOIA]

Put "In Form" Aguero instead of Bernardo as 9 and I think that's our best team - considering Jesus and Sterling are playing their best football (and not their recent form..) and etc...

P.S it's obvious that Phil was rested for the Villa as well as Rodri and Cancelo...

 

[CC1]

Wake up

Lol. Didn’t look at their team. Was only interested in ours :) :)

 

[domalino]

Would be nice to see Torres get a cameo after his time out with covid.

 

[homerdog]

Bit disappointed with the team.

I'd be more worried if you weren't.

 

[Academica]

I went for Jesus, just had a hunch, hope it pays off :)

Hope he gets an hat- trick for you.

 

[come-on-barney]

Give over

No punch without Judy

 

[citytill1die84]

Decent side imo

 

[TheCentralScrutinizer]

So who's gonna be their Messi now that that guy who turns up about 4 times a season is out?

 

[mosssideblue]

Pep likely thinking about the Villa game.

I suppose it is what it is.

I think Phil is the best player in our team at the moment though.

Hope we dont miss him too much and beat these, and dont need to bring him on at 80 minutes to save the Day.

You clearly dont know how Pep thinks then

 

[come-on-barney]

dont you support City?

No of course not

maybe, but dropping our inform player and top goal scorer is a risky thing imo. the team arnt the side of two seasons ago with goals flying in from everywhere. lets hope it doesn't backfire.

Need to take advantage and win our home games now , once we get our noses in front i think the 'istree clubs will need a reality check , Palace and Villa wont be pushovers but if we want to win the league we have to put both of them to the sword.

 

[Heath Park]

The Dipper /Rag result should be all the motivation that we need, come out of the blocks flying and be clinical.

Win this and the season is in our own hands and it's there for the taking.

Completely agree.
It is quite remarkable considering the start we had to the campaign!

Andros Townsend always has a good game against us

 

[come-on-barney]

You clearly dont know how Pep thinks then

You obviously know him so pray tell

 

[mosssideblue]

i just want our best team out. that isnt it.

How do you know it isn't?
