Match Day Thread Crystal Palace v Liverpool

I'm expecting a tough game as Palace are getting close to having their first choice team available and imo they can be very dangerous when "on it". Personally can't see them just sitting back as under Hodgson they have tried to play progressive footie as much as possible.
Hoping for 3-1 but would happily take the scruffiest 1 goal win ever tbh

 

at this stage any win is a great win.

7 to go to delivering a decent season but no more than decent.

You're a hard taskmaster calling 2nd in the league & a CL win just decent

 

When that dream land comes true come back with your bookmark

As for second

Arsenal 2015/16 2nd
Arsenal 2016/17 5th

Doesn't matter a jot does it. All that matters is improving and winning things as the culmination.

 

blimey it's a good job i used the emoji or you might have thought i was serious.

 

good job i used one back or youd have thought i though you were being serious

 

I thought you were. I believe, brother.

 

you deffo aint my brother










since you're not a total twat

 

Some might disagree.

 

pah
what do those fools know

 

Good, thought you were my uncle there for a second!

 

One of those games where we need to defend well.

 

I agree the very worst case for us should be 0-0.

we have lost to swansea 0-1 this year showing we can **** up royally.

At this point chucking 2 points is bad enough but chucking 3 is disaster.

 

We have to play smart and take a point other than losing the game. Hopefully it wont be an issue and we'll win easily.

 

Palace have scored 30 Goals this season, and Liverpool have scored 73
Palace defence have conceded 48 Goals Liverpool defence have conceded 34.
On paper it is winnable, but nothing is certain.
If we play well and defended well also we can outscore them.

 

But if Spurs lose and we lose I feel it will be Spurs looking over there shoulders. Lost Harry Kane and still have Man City to play.

We go to Chelsea and anything other than a Chelsea win will seal top four, I'm sure of that.

 

Thinking about things this way is interesting.

If we think by round rather than assuming teams will win everything then if we are looking at the table:

LFC 31 - 63
Spurs 30 - 61
Chelsea 30 - 56


IF LFC can simply fend off these two by just matching the result then its all well and good no?

the game in hand messes this up TBH.

Then again... If we win and these draw

LFC 32 - 66
Spurs 31-62
Cheslea- 31- 57

thats a huge gap to 5th with 6 to go.

 

Tottenham and Chelsea still in the FA cup, I think one them is going to win the cup.

 

Reckon it will be Utd
