Fulham vs. Crystal Palace League Cup match thread

I have seen it described as thus :
"Hard, shiny, barely absorbent, and smelling of disinfectant".

Wasn’t that the paper you wrapped around your comb and hum as though you had a harmonica?

Still wedded to 3 at the back - guess the rationale being if it ain’t working - keep trying..!! 🙈

Maybe he will surprise us and its actually a back 4 and lerma is sitting in midfield 🤣

Guess Sage doesn't care about winning this cup then.

He knows he NEEDS a result on Saturday so is resting most of his preferred 1st XI.

I doubt it - Lerma will be one of the CBs with Chilwell as LWB, I suspect BUT...who knows?

If we win tonight with that starting line up it will be a miracle…..

(i honestly hope im wrong and can enjoy humble pie later)

By Palace's standards last year's starting 11 and backup 11 were sort of like an A team and a B- team. This year it feels like a B+ and a B. Less top quality but far less drop-off from one lineup to the next.

Intriguing starting XI. It could be anything, but I think Sage is missing a trick here.
This competition is at the quarter final stage, it is a reasonable route back into Europe (3 wins).

Can't see us doing it any other way.

 

[markltcpfc]

Sorry, correction, 4 wins!

Palace: Henderson (GK), Lerma, Richards, Ahanor, Mingueza, Hughes, Doucouré, Chilwell, Osorio, Nketiah, Guessand.

Subs: Benítez (GK), Disasi, Khalaili, Mitchell, Kamada, Wharton, McNeil, Pino, Gozo.

Fulham: Lecomte; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Larsson; Iwobi, Bobb, Palacios; Muniz.

Subs: Cairney, Castagne, Cuenca, García, King, Leno, Manuel Ángel, Reed, Kevin

V.happy with second string team changes made to our team and a chance for those selected players to step up to the plate under the watchful eye of Sage and Henderson. Important to keep first team players fresh for Spurs ideally but enable others to knock on the door given the chance allowed tonight.

Well we have a great recent record against Fulham. If we f*** it up tonite...Protest after the Hull game as there is already one before?

Close it and open it again.

 

[ASCPFC]

Does that count as a shot on target?

 

[mtp1958]

I take it

Close it and open it again.

Thanks - didn't improve the situation, lol
