Tough game ahead. Palace have impressive under the new manager and are turning some good teams over. If we win this it will orgasmic

Palmer is obviously a really good player but for some reason I can't put my finger on, I just dislike the guy. Just something about him makes me feel I'd like to give him a slap. I wonder if there is something deep rooted about him that Pep didn't like so he got rid. A bit like Jesus and Sterling, Pep saw them as no longer an asset 

Great news

I fancy a comfortable win here

He used to be a midfielder at Chelsea and it was Lampard who switched him to LB and I don't understand why. You can tell that he wants to get forward all the time 

It's alright saying drop so and so but I think that it's important to retain some experience in the side. Trippier gives us this and we look much more solid when he's on the pitch 

Arsenal deserved the 3 points for shithousery of the highest order

I don't hate the guy , I'm just so hugely disappointed in the way this all transpired and not having the use of a player of his ability. Without doubt, it damaged us as a team this season.

So he came here, knowing that he was being investigated, and continued to bet knowing full well that it was illegal??

I think that Krafth is more than capable and much more mobile than Lascelles 

I'm 80 years old and I have always despised him and dreaded the day when he turned up here. He has been linked with a move here on many occasions including when SBR was at the end of his reign. I could never understand what people saw in him or how they could possibly rate him. Anyway he came here and showed exactly why I and many others hate the guy

I get the impression that the plan was for him to train with the first team this season and slowly introduce him into the side. If Howe threw him into the team too early and he had a bad game or made a costly mistake the crowd would have crucified him. We've seen the abuse hurled at Burn, Longstaff ,Almiron and Dubs so perhaps Howe is just protecting him a bit. He's only young and I think he will be a very good acquisition in the longer term

Howe made mistakes at Bournemouth, all part of learning but he didn't wait and hope for the next job to come along. He travelled Europe for 2 years, working and learning from top coaches including Someone. He will be analysing every kick of the ball this season and last and if he has made mistakes, he will learn from them. I think you learn more from bad times than you do from good times.

I have every faith in Eddie 

Liverpool looked a bit jaded after al the extra games they've played compared to Man U.  A bit like us really 

I think that Tonali was a massive piece of the jigsaw for us and not having him available has damaged us beyond belief 

Proper FA cup tie

I don't think it would take much for Longstaff to be injured. If he was out of breath or had a hole in his sock that would be an injury to him

We look much more solid at the back and composed as a team when we have a fit, in form Trippier in there. I think it underestimated just what an influence he can be

Players won't be looking forward to this one and neither am I 

I watched Liverpool the other day and they absolutely swarmed all over City and didn't allow them to settle. Reminded me of how we played last season but performances this season are worlds apart

Dubs is very slow in coming off his line. Pope is just the opposite and I think it's unsettling for the defence 

I think we might win this. Jackson looks about the worst centre forward I've ever seen

It was Lampard who switched him to LB from playing in midfield so he has very little experience playing there. Reading various comments over the last few months it seems like Eddie is spending a year educating and coaching him. Let's face it he did it with a couple of our players and massively improved them

Henderson, Grealish, McGuire and Calvin Phillips will be first on the sheet

Adds so much energy going forward. Would like to see him in place of Tripps for 3 or 4 games
