Is it not good to have quality depth in at least one position on the pitch though?

It was a zero-risk signing at a time we had absolutely no cover for Trippier. Thankfully we didn't need to play him.

Anyone got the gif of Pardew conducting the Palace ultras

His mindset seems elite if you believe all the interviews. His football just needs to match it in terms of consistency. The winger situation is still a bit of a mess at the club, like. It's such a shit headache to have.

Pointless signing from day 1.

Cos we support the Palace, the Palace, the Palace, And that's the way we like it we like it we like it, Whoaaaaaaa whoaaaaaaaaa...

Imagine Pickford at SJP if we don't get CL

Is that not roughly what we paid for him? Just checked and it was an undisclosed fee reported to be up to £3M

Got my Palace training top at the ready with PARDS emblazoned on the front.

Can I shock you? I've always greatly admired the fine work of Steve Parrish and Simon Jordan

Fucking hell yeah

I’m fairly confident in this fixture, as even when the gulf between the two teams was massive under Mourihno, they had a honking record up here. It’s one of those occasions intangibles, much like our own honking record at the Amex, Villa's record at St James' which makes me think we'll get the result we need. Especially if the crowd do their part. ps: I’ll still be utterly bricking it approaching KO time though

Douglas Luiz?

I don't think Newcastle and Sunderland are the reason why Gateshead have much lower attendances than they should have, at all. It's purely down to the stadium for me. I'd love a ball playing lower league side with a nice little compact stadium on my doorstep. Instead we've got one of the shittest matchday experiences in the entire UK. The concourse is ridiculous, it's often freezing, windy as fuck and there's absolutely bugger all next to the ground. On a cold week night you genuinely couldn't pay me these days, and I had a season ticket there just 10 years ago. The turnover of players doesn't help either, although that seemed to have slowed for a few years it appears to be back with a bang.

@joeyt Don't even, man.

Another shite keeper?

Me tonight

Sky would be wanking themselves to death if that's the scenario that unfolds. Would be gripping to be fair, would still make me sick with the wankfest they'll be if Chelsea make it.

Palace v Forest and Bournemouth v Villa are huge games. If they could both avoid away wins then we could go into Sunday knowing a win would all but guarantee us top 5.

I think if they go up, their stadium will show them up. They already suffer from not as many fans going because of the stadium, and also because SJP is in full view behind one of their goals, and the SOL is just a little further down the road at the other end. They just simply don’t have the money to build a new stadium, and right now they can’t look at their fanbase and say the demand is there.

They need someone who can replace Kroos, and TAA does that with his passing ability from RB. Valverde RCM helps immensely and they will spend big on a top RCB.

We’re just not losing away to Arsenal without something going drastically wrong or a huge slice of luck in their favour.

This is where I’m at. I think we are more than capable of getting 3 points from our final 2 games, possibly 4, depending on which Arsenal turns up. I’m just not convinced that we’ll beat Chelsea. It will be a hard game, if we had Joelinton I’d have a lot more faith.

Yes I get that point but equally Arsenal winning the champions league is a hideous one. I actually think m if they get knocked out there might be a bit of a hangover anyway. They’ll still qualify for CL so maybe they just be a bit flat in general with “season over” scenario.
