Crystal Palace Pre-Match Thread

Like I said I did a lot of ground work and came to the conclusion that that is the best team for this game. 

 

alright cityfanlee23 calm down

Kramaric has to start for me. We've spent about nine million on the bloke. Not that money alone justifies him starting - but we've surely done that in mind with him being the difference in games such as this one. If he's as good as he's meant to be, it will show against teams like Palace. I fully take the point about Nugent being a good link-up man though, I'd be half tempted to start those two but would probably still end up going for Ulloa & Kramaric. The reason? When has Ulloa ever looked anything but useless when coming on as a sub? Nugent on the other hand often improves us when he comes on.

 

I'd probably go with Albrighton and Schlupp out wide. I think Albrighton deserves a start. Mahrez is a great option to bring on if we need him too. I still think both Mahrez & Albrighton are better than Schlupp but it's hard to not want Schlupp playing given his recent form. It's a tricky one.

Wow you know how to really hurt a man.

Yeah but if we start Nugent, Ulloa won't have to do anything when he comes on cos the work has already been done by Kramaric.

I like how Una gives Paul Konchesky his full name and the others just a surname or shortened name.

 

He knows Paul needs lifting and to stand out, good support Una :thumbup:

Thanks, that is exactly it. Least he could do is unblock me on twitter.

lmao what did you say to paul 

Put it this way I wasn't happy with his assist at West Ham.

GTF unblocked me though so I can only hope Paul sees sense.

Ulloa can just be there to anger the away fans given his Brighton links. That for me is why Upson should play as well. The more angry people the better.

lol That wasn't aimed at you, just a coincidence, I saw a lot of people playing one up front which I don't agree with.

I'd consider playing Upson if he's match fit anyway.

Our game, our court - let's give Pardew the pre-run in jitters with our 4 - 4 - ****ing 2

Hamer

Simpson

Wasilewski

Morgan

Schlupp

Albrighton

Cambiasso

James

Mahrez

Kramaric

Ulloa

2 - 1 to the city, late winner by Albrighton or some shit.

This !

But wouldn't swap keepers , no need to keep changing!!! But I'd drop Simpson ,delat back at right back and bring back konchesky ...

(So not all this lol)

Yep and people would rather have David Nugent playing.

No I'd rather have Nugent playing in the position he's played in all season and where Kramarić has been average, and then have Kramarić in front of him. Incredible how people are still pretending Nugent isn't at least partly responsible for most of our decent performances, even after Nugent played better than Kramarić was when he came on yet Kramarić gets the 'he needs better service' card and Nugent just gets abuse whenever he does anything slightly wrong

Edit: Unless that was a joke post, which would be understandable but the line between real posts and those taking the piss is disappearing quickly

Agree with all this. We have to start Ulloa - he's the only one who looks like scoring.

Still think Albrighton and Mahrez should start on the wings, with Jeff at left back. I know some will say that's mad as Jeff has been playing well on the wing. However, of the options at LB I think Jeff is the best, and he always looks dangerous running from deep. Plus, against teams who sit back we need people who have skill to beat the defender ie Albrighton and Mahrez, not just raw pace (Jeff). At home to Palace, Jeff should still be able to get forward a lot, even from LB.

Won't happen, of course.

I'm not a huge Simpson fan. He seems to be far too one dimensional and just hoofs the ball down the line each time he gets it.

The worrying thing for me is the number of different combos of lineups....and I don't mean just on here but pearson have a million ideas too. The signs of a unsettled team that is low on confidence.

Its all sqaure pegs in round holes this season. Sad.
