Apparently Zaha will out for at least three weeks (potentially much longer). So no new instalment of JWP vs Zaha in 11 days time.
Selles HAS to go for it against Palace. No Ely, Charly playing in a free role behind the striker. Handbrake has to come off. If we get done on the break so be it.
Leicester and Bmouth both have very favorable fixture lists (and play each other next). Probably only Palace have a nicer run-in. I'd be surprised if they both went down, and I wouldn't be shocked if they both stayed up.
No we're not, yet. This season is not over by any means. True, we're not best placed but, four points plus a better goal difference, just, let's see. Ok so City might just do what everyone expects, but let's not spend the next couple of weeks assuming the gods are against us, they just might change their mind!!!!
If they're going to do it, it surely has to be now. I don't see what benefit there would be in waiting another game or two. But I'm not convinced that getting someone else in would improve their chances. I think I'd be more inclined to stick with him, given his knowledge of the squad. Either way though, I think they're going down.

Just noticed this on Oddschecker for next Leicester manager. Maybe we should go for the version with only one ‘t’?
Yes I did post that earlier. FA are also planning to appeal the ruling as they believe it too lenient.
Knowing the FA, they’ll agree to let him out on probation for our game before he resumes his sentence.
judging by how our luck this season is going so far, they will also let Fulham borrow Mbappe and Rashford for that game to assist him as well
This is the bit I’m pissed off about the WHU game. They could have been beaten had we gone for it, and we are all past the stage of not going for it. That said, I still don’t 100% believe we are down, we could do a 2017 and scape by the skin of our teeth. And that includes dispatching Palace, who if they had any sense would play defensively and counter us as we can’t handle that.
He has to go for it in every game now. As I mentioned on the match day thread, I think he needs to go with a 4-1-3-2 formation. Lavia is capable of being the sole defensive midfielder. I would like the 3 ahead of him to be JWP, Alcaraz and Sulemana, with all of them being given instructions to get into the box to support Che (if fit) and AN Other. We can’t afford to just sit back and keep things tight in the hope of nicking a goal, especially as it rarely happens. We either concede a soft goal or miss a decent chance.
I’ve heard that Che is out for a little while, so if I were manager I’d play this: Paul Sulemana Alcaraz Edozie Lavia JWP Perraud Salisu ABK KWP McCarthy Tell edozie and Sulemana to beat their men, get to the byline and crosses into the ****ing box. “We’ve got a giant up front let’s fackin’ use him lads”
