    Probably better that I'm not watching this match then. Checking Livescore, Differential, and here every other minute is nerve wracking enough

    Palace have spent pretty much the whole game so far in West Broms half but don't really look like getting one. Hoofball and not a decent finish for any shot they've had. Can't see them scoring.

    Zaha has been the main threat. Gotten in behind the fullback on a number of occasions. Final ball not great but Myhill has made a couple of good saves. If things continue as is i'd be surprised if they don't score


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Myhill will concede 47,000 goals.

    Am I doing it right? :)

    Yeah he's the main worry, making bits of Brunt down the side but still not looking like he has the final touch to do anything.

    Berahino coming off at HT according to the guys in studio!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Started De Gea ahead of Myhill, what was I thinking!! :(

    Only two people in top 50 captained Aguero.

    Sorry...this is mental.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Only 7% of the top 1k own Aguero

    Souare clean sheet is looking pretty safe.

    This makes me very, very optimistic if Aguero can bag a few today. We're going high lads!

    I captained him but as a Newcastle fan...We might spoul his party. Still lose like but to somebody else

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,358 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    No real 'surprises' in the lineups bar Zab being back in the City team.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988

    He will though.

    Fúcking Ranieri.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 437 ✭✭Pink Lemons


    Hmm, on one hand I'm annoyed he's dropped as he's been one of the constant scorers every week for me. But on the other hand it'll help get one up on the players who captained him if Kun goes crazy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,058 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    Bolasie goal


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    Murray starting should help Francis' assist potential.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    Yes!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    I think I've figured out why boards is having a meltdown:

    Finnharpsboy has travelled so far into the future and has seen all 6 of Aguero's goals assisted by KdB and Kolorov that he's been trapped there and is frantically attempting to get back to the present by constantly resetting boards to 2 hours ago.

    It's the only logical answer :)

    Crosses with Murray's better aerial ability


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Myhill and Evans.

    That couldn't have gone much worse really.

    Murray is much better in the air than Wilson and Francis makes a lot of crosses.
