Well? This will actually be a HUGE win. Palace have beaten Chelsea, ars*nal and Liverpool amongst others in the last few weeks.

What say you?
 
Palace are on a roll and capable of beating anyone. I hope i'm wrong but my gut feelings is that we will scrape a draw, rather than win.
 
If Chelsea slip up tomorrow it will be a huge win. If Chelsea win as expected then this will just be another win.

We are just waiting for the inevitable now though, unless some teams do us some major favors.
 
Judgement day.

We're going to be 3-0 up by half time.

COYS.

More like channelled anger. Hopefully the players are feeling the way we are and the next 6 games will see our opponents used as punching bags.
 
Son and Trippier should start but won't. We don't need both Dembele and Wanyama in CM, one or the other coupled with Dier but they'll both play. As a consequence we will have 95% possession and domination and Palace will score from 2 corners and a breakaway by Townsend, who will celebrate. Poch will make some late substitutions, probably Janssen for Toby and Sissoko for Lloris resulting in Zaha adding a fourth from the halfway line. Nothing like a traditional end to our season.
 
Who do we rest ahead of the NLD? That's a real tough question. Surely we can't run our strongest XI into the ground in the run in.

We need someone quick to contain Zaha and we need to make sure Benteke doesn't get into the game, but then we should be fine.
 
SAM ALLARDYCE ISSUES A WARNING TO TOTTENHAM
DANIEL EMERY

Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce has issued a warning to Tottenham ahead of their clash later this week.

The two sides face off at Selhurst Park on Wednesday night and Allardyce has said Spurs should not underestimate Palace, who he calls ‘unbeatable’.

Palace have won six of their last eight Premier League games – a run which has seen them go from relegation contenders to pushing for a top ten finish.

Speaking to The Telegraph, Allardyce said this:

It’s our spirit, our mental resilience and our belief now that means even when we go a goal or two goals down we don’t think we’re going to get beaten. Because of that mental resilience, we are fighting back now and getting results and the more results we get the more confidence we build and the results we’ve had recently nobody would have expected.

You realise when you are the underdogs, you set out a gameplan, and that’s why it’s so exciting in this league. When you set out a gameplan and you turn over a team when you’re not expected to by most people.
The Eagles are currently 12th in the Premier League and sit on 38 points, just two off the magic 40-point mark.

Palace have already slayed one dragon this week, after beating Liverpool 2-1 on Sunday.

Top scorer Christian Benteke has been bang on form recently and added two more to his tally against his former club.

The Belgian striker has scored an impressive 16 goals for Palace this season, a tally he will look to add to against Spurs.

Can't see us winning on this one.

It's got all the hallmarks of a Spursy result.
 
This game will be won on the wings. Walker will start for pace and for his height in the box but it is Davies who will have the biggest task against Zaha. Stop the service into the box and Benteke becomes useless.

Their pace and their set-pieces are the biggest threat to us. Not an easy game at all and Fat Sam's desire to get one over the 'tactical' coaches should never be underestimated.

3 at the back. Dembele and Wanyama to stop Cabaye and Milivojevic.
 
Hopefully our Chav loss doesn't have the same impact on our team as the WBA result last season. Fat Sam has been talking about 'lots of changes' because of how the limited time in between their fixtures but that stinks of him playing mind games.

Like NRD says, we should have too much for them.
 
As I said in the opening post, this is a massive game with huge implications.

And, Palace are beating top 6 teams, including Chelsea consistently at the moment.

Palace 5-1

:59:

You really should watch Rake on Netflix. It's killer funny.


I'll give it a go at some point.

As for Spurs

“Those who do not learn from history
are condemned to repeat it...”


Spurs seem to learn as much as they win, nothing, it's just groundhog day season after season.
 
Spurs - Are we going to be the Best Team never to win anything?
