Vlasic to me has looked better than Siggy and a hard worker. Lookman now needs a chance he may have defensive shortcomings to help but I feel with his motor he can get our forwards in play to score. Sad to hear about the Davies injury he probably had it the last game and played through.
 
I’m heading over to the game sat
My son lives in Croydon and all his partners family are Palace STH
They got us tickets in the home end.
It’ll be a day on the lash with the Arsenal / Spurs game at 12-30 then the Manure at 5-30.
Then dinner and more drink.
My son says most Palace fans feel this is a must win game and they are fairly confident of beating us by 2 or 3
 

"Evening Toffees"
As ever, hoping all Blues coming have a safe journey and ( result aside) a good day. If you're in the home end you'll be ok unless you go mental when you score (unless you're in with the black clad drum bashers, then good luck.
Considering we're bottom and cack, we are more confident of a result than any game all season but that is about 20% from the usual 5%.
We are relying on Wilf up front. Townsend is a bit hit and miss but Cabaye is rejuvenated under Hodgson. We look more organised at the back and Hennesey has been consigned to the bench and all time Palace hero 63 year old Julian Speroni will be in goal.
You will need to come and have a go I think. If you sit back I think you won't keep us out for 90 mins.
First of two must win home games and then a trip to the vermin. Our season in 10 days.
Hoping Everton win all remaining games this season bar Saturday and Feb 10.
C'mon Blue, der sh*te deeze.. no wait though..

I drank in a Palace boozer beside the ground last Jan
Cheap pints of London Pride and 2 bottles of becks for 3 quid ( 5-50 Euro for 1 in Dublin )
I was with some Palace fans that knew me and some that didn’t.
All good banter and not a cross word
Same in the ground but I was extremely reserved when Seamus scored

My lads , one Palace one Blue and me always have a good time at both grounds. Never any bother in years. We sit together, main stand at ours, top balcony at yours. Enjoy Saturday, (not too much though..)
 
I was going to start with"Away to Palace worries me" but to be honest any up coming game worries me. Any team with any pace will cause us problems and we will struggle to score against any defence.
The only grain of comfort I can see is that Unsworth has had time to think about this one and he has had a look at what he has.
 
There's a rail replacement bus service from Clapham on saturday to make it even more of a pain to get there. @Alan Whittle are there any pubs by Norwood Junction that are ok with away fans ?.
Flora Sandes, maybe 10-15 minute walk from station. Better at Thornton Heath if you can get there but very rarely any "excitement" in either. Have a good trip.
