Hmm. Am in London. Should I try and catch this live? Nah. This team is really not worth the pain.
It’s football. Watch it as a neutral. Helps sometimes. If it goes tits up, just laugh along.Hmm. Am in London. Should I try and catch this live? Nah. This team is really not worth the pain.
That's the spirit.Hmm. Am in London. Should I try and catch this live? Nah. This team is really not worth the pain.
Yeah, you’d like that wouldn’t you?!Think we could take a bit of a pasting here.
Some talk on twitter that Bruno is out, McTominay too. Evans will probably have to play. Mount won’t be able to start.Any confirmed squad news? I hear Bruno out... any chance for Evans?
Yeah would be great.Yeah, you’d like that wouldn’t you?!
I reckon we’re going to put on a performance tonight, attacking as our best form of defence.
What team do you support ?Hmm. Am in London. Should I try and catch this live? Nah. This team is really not worth the pain.
Reckon, we will see;Some talk on twitter that Bruno is out, McTominay too. Evans will probably have to play. Mount won’t be able to start.
Jesus Christ, when will it end!Apparently Bruno is injured too Just forfeit this one?
First club game in his life. Only missed one international break with 'injury' before.Won’t this be something like the first game Bruno has missed for us through injury? Quite remarkably good injury record in a squad full of crocks.
And people don’t think there is a problem with our training regimes.Can we even field a team tonight? I guess there might be a few debutants getting their chance. Worst injury crisis I’ve known in over 50 years of supporting this club.
Why has it been so bad for so long?We've been having an injury crisis in the centre of defence almost every season since at least 06/07, when it likely cost us a CL title.
In the last 18 years, I think there's only been 3 seasons where we haven't had a period where we had to go way down the pecking order (often playing midfielders there). 15/16 with Smalling and Blind, then 19/20 and 20/21 with Maguire and Lindelof (and even then Lindelof played with a back injury for most of that second season). Every other season in those 18 years we've had problems in that position.
The difference is that in those previous seasons it's only lasted a month or so, whereas this time it's been all season long.
Why on earth wouldn't you?Hmm. Am in London. Should I try and catch this live? Nah. This team is really not worth the pain.
Pretty sure we haven’t scored a single goal from a corner all season, Andersen couldn’t bully a paper bag when it comes to attacking set-pieces.We may struggle with set pieces tonight without Harry. Andersen may bully us for their corners.
Only fit enough for 30 mins.Well, at least Mount will start.
If you don't beat us tonight dissolve the club.Pretty sure we haven’t scored a single goal from a corner all season, Andersen couldn’t bully a paper bag when it comes to attacking set-pieces.
ETH might genuinely have to playCaf may get its wish of having a team that has no Bruno and Rashford.
Bet the eleven you put out still cost double oursIf you don't beat us tonight dissolve the club.
Would rather Dalot at CB than BissakaHojlund
Garnacho Bruno Antony
Mainoo Mount
Amass Casemiro Bissaka Dalot
Onana
To be honest, the timing of the game. Not sure how safe the area around Selhurst Park is for a non-local. Anyway, will catch the game at a pub around Paddington.Why on earth wouldn't you?
And I bet the eleven Palace put out is doubly more balanced and closer to their first XI. And I bet their bench isn't mostly full of academy kids with next to no experience of senior football.Bet the eleven you put out still cost double ours

We’ve been there a lot this season to be fair, recently been playing Clyne and Lerma at CB ffs. Is nice to have most of the players back though, long time comingAnd I bet the eleven Palace put out is four times more balanced and closer to their first XI. And I bet their bench isn't mostly full of academy kids with next to no experience of senior football.
