Crystal Palace (A) - Match Thread

[Fightforever]

Good line-up that way no one gets injured.

[ToeKneeHandCock]

Why are people so shocked? Rodgers did exactly the same last year.

 

Only thing I’m not keen on in playing two dm. Still think we’ve got enough out there to beat palace 

[StriderHiryu]

 

 

 

Strong lineup from Palace. I think only Eze from their first team is missing.

Gray to finally score a worldie off the bench causing FoxesTalk to have a meltdown when he leaves in a few days for a nominal fee!

I would rather have Fuchs than Thomas. Experience plus height over a good attacking set peice team.

Not against zaha. Thomas can compete in a race

[jonthefox]

Worried for this which means we'll romp home. 3 nil. 

[Guest Sharpe's Fox]

I am mortified. If we win with that cancer of an eleven then we are winning the league. No question about it. No club would be able to take the piss with a side that and not win it.

[kyleolly]

Have Palace not made any changes then?

[oxtonfox]

Definitely don't fancy our chances with that team, I think it would be worth playing our best team today and reserve team against Newcastle. Where's our creativity? Of course Brendan knows best.  

[AyewJoking]

With that side looks like Rodgers doesnt mind a loss here.

I'll keep my mouth shut and see what happens.

Should be interesting

[deanolegend1989]

When Brendan is that dumb then we don’t deserve to win. Not a chance we win today now.

Hamza and Mendy as a 2 in midfield 🤣🤣. Deserve everything we get.

Preparing for the post match loss chat and the people saying ‘how can we beat spurs and lose to sh*tty palace!?’

Its clear as day why we won’t win with stupid management like this. Trying to be a smart arse.

Only 3 or 4

Hopefully they'll be knackered when Gray/Vardy come off the bench? 

[Fox seen in Norwich]

Schlupp OG due to a momentary lapse of brain and forgetting he’s changed clubs.

 

imagine we’ll be in the white kit?

That’s not logical though. We’ve rotated today because we had a game 48 hours ago, not because of the game on Sunday

[M0901]

Two games in 3 days if everyone’s memory is lacking

[Guest Hansifüx]

looking at both benches I assume, the real match starts second half 

[Fightforever]

The meltdown needs to stop. You can't play the same players twice in 48 hours this is the only way.

Its not that bad 😆 but it is 80% our reserve side which is probably better than 6 or 7 - 1st teams in the prem.

[adejo92]

I think we have shown Palace some disrespect with that line up and they could well oblige in punishing us.

 

Palace are a much better team than their last 2 results make them look.

 

I'd have like to have seen Maddison & Vardy start with the option to bring them off  when we are ahead.

 

I've been proved wrong far too many times by BR and this squad though so I should probably just show faith and trust.

 

Come on boys.

Zaha needs to be managed and Thomas will get trampled over. We all know palace in the box and at the moment that's our shittiest area at leaking goals. 

[Guest StevieLynex]

I confidently predict we will make three subs in the second half - Vardy, Tielemans and Ndidi

[martyn]

Palace have no choice other than to go strong after their last few results.

 

Hopefully it will be similar to West Ham away last season where our energy levels were clearly higher than theirs.

If Gray comes off the bench, there will be a literal price tag attached to his shirt.

[Guest Hansifüx]

justin vs zaha will be entertaining to watch
