I expect palace to go through with that strong side they put out. But what can you do, bare bones and we must clinch top 4

Yeah I think you're probably right. Although expect Nkoudou and Moura to get instructions to overlap Llorente at every opportunity.

I would hope they are closer to Llorente than I have them and let KWP and Trippier get up the line.
Need to have Moura at least getting anything that drops from Llorente.

I like the idea of Foyth in a back 3. Will give him more licence to play it out from the back without as much of a defensive burden. I think he'll be key today.

Toby not on the bench either. He’s played a lot of games recently so I wouldn’t be surprised if his hamstrings are in pieces.

Weird side but totally understandable. We have so many fuckin games and so many injuries.

I think we will win 6-3

Really hope we pull a great performance out of the bag and sneak through. I know there was no option regarding the team due to injury crisis and lack of signings but it will be really disappointing going out of the two cups we have a genuine chance of winning in space of 3 days.

Wow...!
No Toby, Eriksen even in the squad.
they are pretty much full strength.
With all the PL teams gone already too.... be so wound up if we throw away our last chance of a trophy

Welcome to next season!

Trouble is, Rose and a Lamela/Moura coin flip aside, this 11 is pretty much the best we can put out.

Hope Levy takes note of Poch making a point here.

Weird Side sums it up perfectly. Would be a massive result to win with such a makeshift line-up!

Obviously the club see it as vital but I’m fatigued by it already and it’s only been a few years of doing it. This whole have to get top 4 so we get knocked out in CL and then strive to get top 4 so get knocked out of CL doesn’t excite me at all. The myth of the past that you need it to attract signings has died too. Keeping players too means nothing as CL or not you lose players if Barca or Madrid come in for them. Now I’ve seen Madrid, Messi and Barca against us I don’t see the hype personally unless we’re actually going into it trying to win it.

Don’t waste any money on that prediction!!!

I’m not sure This team could score six if it played till midnight ?

(Won’t go as far as saying Palace went home at 6 tho, just in case!)
