    If Collins, Oxford & Byram are fit to play, start all 3 IMO

    Randolph
    Collins - Reid - Ogbonna
    Byram - Noble - Obiang - Cresswell
    Antonio - Carroll - Lanzini

    Looking at that back 3 (Luke's and TWC's) just hits home even more that we should have tried to keep Tomkins. Ogbonna, as I and others have already said, has been woeful lately. ;hmm

    Oddly I am now more optimistic of a positive result on Saturday after today's payet revelations... ;hmm
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    That is odd. ;biggrin

    Made me ;lol

    (The Hodgson/Iceland one also made me ;biggrin )

    baracks - it has me too, tbh. I feel like I've been waiting for Payet to be brilliant all season and been regularly let down, whereas now I feel like we'll have 11 players working hard for each other.

    Funny but I like Ogbonna, thought he was immense last season, and no worse than most this season. And the "penalty" against Man City was probably a worse decision than Feghuolis sending off. On saying that, I also think we were mad to let Tomkins go. I am just hoping that Slav discovers a system (that doesn`t include Payet) pretty darn quick and sticks to it. I think 3 at the back, if you can make it work, is a very versatile system, and after the Nordveit Experiment (sounds like a quatermass story) I`m hoping not to see him in a back 4 again. If Big Andy plays I hope he has someone playing off him as most of his flick ons and lay offs are pretty much wasted otherwise. I like the look of TWC`s team. I do hope we beat Palace and get a bit of our pride back. I am also hoping that Bilic gets a rousing reception and a song or three. Going for a season changing/defining 3--1 victory. ;champagne ;scarf

    I'm not sure our defence will be able to achieve a -1 ;biggrin

    Thankyou

    This Payet thing is a bait and switch by SB. Big Sam will be planning for a WHU team without Payet and then boom at the last minute we'll name Payet as playing.
    ;pray

    SCHLUPP'S PALACE MEDICAL

    Sky Sources: Jeffrey Schlupp ishaving medical today in central London ahead of a move to Crystal Palace from Leicester.

    We understand every attempt is being made to get him registered in time to play for Palace at West Ham tomorrow – but player and club are “up against the clock.”

    Are you setting a challenge there Vorse?

    Home win.

    Success in the face of adversity.

    Team and fans galvanised.

    Oooh I said similar

    Lawro reckons 1-1, I think its time to break the trend and prove him wrong
  • alderzalderz
    I don't know if it was foolish of Palace not to sign a left back, tbh. Didn't Souare have his car crash in September, after the window closed?
  • jay_in_cptjay_in_cpt
    Time for our very own little gem to shine for us & I have every confidence in him...
    Lanzini IMO the new Payet
  • HammerwombatHammerwombat
    Home win. No question.

    Either that or a cash amount goes to my best mates chosen charity.
  • puddleglumhammerspuddleglumhammers
    I'd love to see -

    Randolph
    Collins Reid Ogbonna
    Antonio Noble Obiang Cresswell
    Lanzini
    Carroll Fletcher

    but I fear we will see -

    Randolph
    Nordveidt Reid Ogbonna Cresswell
    Noble Obiang
    Antonio Lanzini Ferghouli
    Carroll

    But we now have a major point to prove post-Payet and will scrape an ugly 2-1.

    Can that cash amount be £2m and your mate's chosen charity the Scott Hogan Delta Fund...?
  • HammerwombatHammerwombat
    I wish. I think I gobbed off a bit too much after our victory at Selhurst park. 3 figures if we lose, but if we win the Myaware charity gets the same ;biggrin
  • jay_in_cptjay_in_cpt
    I'd take any ugly win right now ;ok
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Schlupp in line to play for Palace tomorrow.
