Crystal Palace vs Manchester City - pre-match thread

I'd be more confident of a win if Palace hadn't lost four league games in a row. It's not often teams lose five in a row, I can see this being another frustrating draw, 2-2 after we've scored first. :(
 
I think Palace could well go down this season, but that doesn't make this fixture any easier. Palace looked really weak on set pieces when I watched them v Liverpool recently. They were terrible than day, but we're the last team to take advantage of that - smallest team in the Premiership.

Need to win this one. Arsenal and Liverpool have tough fixtures where they could drop points so win this and we could be top again.

Just hope that dirty fucker, Dann, doesn't take out Sergio again.
 
This is the most frustrating thing about being a City fan. Everton were excellent against us and then rolled over for Chelsea. In fact the only teams to give us an easy time this season have been West Brom, Bournemouth and Steaua away.

I'd love a 7 or 8 goal game and with Crystal Palace they have the potential to be that bad but when teams are against us it just doesn't happen.

Everton were not excellent against us. We took them apart, created chances aplenty and missed two penalties. That said, it is true Stecklenburg had a game of a lifetime.

They were excellent relative to how they played at Chelsea
 
What does worry me with Palace is the searing pace that they have in their side. Zaha, Townsend and Benteke is a very good attack, important we don't leave ourselves too exposed to the counter attack.
