You've got some good form going into the game. Hadn't you won the couple before the game last year as well though?

Ours isn't bad. We've lost one away game in the league in all of 2014. It just happened to be 3 days ago.

One good thing about last season was that we tended to respond well to a defeat (the last 15 minuted at Palace excepted). Hopefully we can carry that on this season. Or just not lose any more games.

Would like Markovic to come in for Cou. Tell him he has an hour to run his fullback into the ground and try to create things. Then we can bring Mario on.

What if Spurs just change their FB when we swap Lazar for Mario?

What worries me most? Our midfield, other than Henderson who I think is one of our best players. His energy is wasted when there is passengers like Gerrard. Don't get me wrong he can have the odd good game, but he is a luxury most of the time. It doesn't help Henderson knowing the little Welsh t**t is there too, I'm not the biggest fan of Lallana, but maybe thats what Henderson needs. Coutinho needs to play there otherwise. Rodgers got it all wrong on Monday.

As for this game, coming off a disappointing loss and Tottenham on a high. We have no right to win at their place, its a tough game.


My team:

-------------------Mignolet
Manquillo---Skrtel---Lovren---Moreno
------------------Gerrard
---------Henderson---Coutinho
--Sterling-------Sturridge------Markovic



That reminds me, can't stand Mignolet, a new keeper is a must. Its not for his ability, he can be a good shot stopper, but its how he slows the play up, holds on to the ball for minutes, it reminds me of Finnan taking a throw in. Just throw it ffs.


Other than that, I am entirely positive.

Don't get why you should be banned, no problem with being pessimistic. Think a lot of what you are saying makes sense jaffa. If everyone just comes on here and gets behind team, things would be very boring :)

Some defensive injuries could hinder us in this game, so I am sticking with 2-0 to spurs.
More worryingly if they win, I think they are right in there for top 4.

Gotta love the crazy predictions after such little games.

I remember every man and his dog saying Palace need to prepare for next season in the championship after game 7 last year.
 
Tottenham's season will be derailed at the end of September, they'll crash through fixtures all of October, before coming to a rest as a flaming wreckage in November/December.

After Christmas they'll regroup to try to scrape enough points together to qualify for the Europa League.
