Because it worked last time…

Following the same winning format, I’ll leave it to somebody else to put the team pic up once released.

You’re welcome.

Pretty much as expected, and good to see Pau on the bench.

Yep on Pau, I wonder if Mings was also fit enough but Emery decided he didn't need another defender or whether he failed the late test.

Great to see Pau back on the bench. I am dreading this game. Really hope this is where we break our hoodoo.

If fully fit then Mings probably gets in ahead of Garcia, with Bogey the Cash cover. Or even Konsa.

If we can't beat that line up we may as dissolve the club.

You should have a bit more faith in Watkins. ;)

CP has a makeshift right -side of defence. We have to make that work for us. Having said that, I'd have put Bogarde in the middle, taken Sancho out and played Maatsen down our left.

Just fcuking win, please.

If we can't beat that Palace team, we might as well just start forfeiting and saving the petrol money to get the bus down there.

Assume Sarr is on International duty.  So that might limit them to just 3 goals.

Onnana - whats his injury?  The Arsenal one i thought was concussion at the time - but clearly not.
