Palace will do a number on LFC today (showing Poch how it should be done, I'm sorry to say).
Theyll be knackered for Weds and we'll beat them comfortably.
Exactly what happened 2 weeks ago. They beat Chavs but blew themselves out and were well beaten by Saints.
We'll come back strongly in the League. We've done it before after a lousy result in a cup semi. Pompey 0-2 followed by 2 of the best results I've ever seen in PL - beating Goons and Chavs in the space of a few days, and then Citeh to get top 4 first time ever. PL title still on. By Weds evening we could be one point behind, with Chavs away to EFC. Keep the faith.
Feels strange to say after yesterday, but we have 6 cup finals now. We're still in it until it's mathematically over.
Wednesday will be a great chance to show how much we've matured.
Like to think this crop won't give Chelsea the satisfaction of ending our season again.
Palace 0-2 Spurs (Toby and Kane)

BBC: "I can breathe a little easier. 38 points has been very good in the last 10 years. We have five games to go so this one is so important. We have Tottenham on Wednesday and Burnley after that. It lifts the pressure on us. I am worried these lads can't reach this level when they don't have time to recover. I may have to make huge changes to make sure we compete with Tottenham."
Agree with this line up except for Wimmer at LB. Would rather have Verts Lb and Wimmer central. Maybe even go with Trippier Lb just to keep the two belgians in the centre. Hoping Rose makes the bench for this and makes an appearance, might just be the lift we need. Tbh I'm less worried about this fixture than the Leicester away one. After our cup exit and Palace's excellent results, I think we will start this game very strongly. COYSIF ben davies is injured then we should NOT play three at the back here. Playing 3 at the back works when we have our wing backs like Rose and Walker available. I hope Poch reverts to 4-2-3-1 here, Palace have beaten Chelsea, Woolwich and liverpool.They are a strong team.

Son----Eriksen---Ali
----Dembele-dier---------
Wim- Vert-Ald--Walker
-------Lloris-------------
Wimmer has the pace and technical ability to start LB is our third choice behind Rose and Davies.

3-1 Spurs
it would be fab, but it wont happen will it? We'll be 4 pts ahead of them at kick off time v Hull, so the day will really be one massive anticlimax.
This fixture is looking really tough. Palace have beaten Chelsea and Liverpool away and Woolwich 3-0 in the last couple of weeks...
One of the worst away games to be playing right now especially given the Wembley disappointment. Will make a huge statement if we win.
If we play as well as yesterday, with a proper line up and not Son at LWB, we will win.One of the worst away games to be playing right now especially given the Wembley disappointment. Will make a huge statement if we win.
