Obviously a tougher game than last night. Some calls for youngsters to start may be a bit premature. Full senior squad with hopefully Aguerd, Paqueta, Pablo and Oggy continuing upward.

Another big game like the Bournemouth one. 3 points off the bottom 3 and 2 off the top 10.

A win here will settle any nerves going into our last game with Leicester, we need to calm things down a bit and make sure we’re stopping at the break with confidence.

Who’s going to score this year’s screamer? Seems like we always do with this lot.

Assuming Fab is okay……

———————————Fabianski————————————-

-Kehrer———-Dawson———Zouma———-Cresswell-

——————-Lanzini—Downes—Rice—————————-

-Bowen———————Antonio——————-Benrahma-


Subs: Areola, Coufal, Johnson, Aguerd, Emerson, Soucek, Fornals, Paqueta, Scamacca.


Lanzini (in particular) and Antonio love scoring against this mob. And Scamacca needs a polite reminder of what happens if you let standards slip. As did Antonio when he was dropped for Scamacca in the first place. But I fully expect Scamacca to respond in a good way. And what a double substitution that could be later on in the game to see Gianluca and his returning pal Paqueta come on to hopefully show what they can do again.

I was really tempted to actually play Fornals after his last 2 appearances. But Lanzini had the slight edge from me because of how good he is in possession and as mentioned his record against this lot. He has a good penalty record too should we get one.

We seem to love drawing against these at home under Moyes. And that’s what I think the score will be again. 2-2.

Soucek is starting.

It's fairly pointless proposing a team without him in it.

If Paquetá is still out, I'd like to see...

Areola
Kehrer Dawson Zouma Cresswell
Downes Rice
Bowen Benrahma Cornet
Scamacca


But I know Soucek will start, most likely for Cornet with Benny pushed out wide.

Moyes said that Paqueta will be back this week. He has been training with the team so I assume he’s fit now. Pretty sure Cornet isn’t.

In that case I'd expect to see;


Fabianski
Kehrer Dawson Zouma Cresswell
Soucek Rice
Bowen Paqueta Benrahma
Scamacca

Areola Coufal Aguerd Emerson Johnson Downes Fornals Lanzini Antonio

I always think this fixture is very unpredictable. I just hope we don't lose the momentum gained from last night.
I'm going for a 2-1 win.

I know what you mean.

Let's hope Zaha isn't interested.

Completely different challenge. Palace sit deep and counter so I expect the lions share of possesion and a higher line.

Expect Kehrer vs Zaha to be an interesting battle.
You could argue that Johnson RB and Kehrer RCB would be a better way to deal with Palaces biggest threat and let the rest of the team get on with it. But can't justify not playing Dawson, even if he is vulnerable with space in behind.

We need to use the ball well and take our chances, as we always do.

Think the 3 at the back system in Europe still had us looking threatening going forward. Agree it needs to be considered.

Option 1:

Kehrer Dawson Zouma

Option 2:

Zouma Dawson Creswell

Would like us to go 3 at the back for this one

Areola
Kehrer Dawson Zouma Cresswell
Downes Rice
Bowen Fornals Benrahma
Scamacca

I'd start fornals as he'll be full of confidence from last night's game.

I'd bring paqueta on at HT if fornals struggles to create.
