Crystal Palace v Everton 31 January 2015 - From the Palace end.

[Rook]

Nor should Barry be dropped.

Keep both him and Besic.

The derby is no place for a fellow to come straight back after a longish lay off.

Put James on the bench.

Barry shouldn't be permabenched for the rest of the season but this is the last match he should be starting. He's a foul around the box waiting to happen and Gerrard never misses free kicks against us.

 

[deipnosophist]

wow, wow, wow

pardon?

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Creasehead wasn't even in their squad today, think the [Poor language removed] and the media are going to make it all about him in the derby if he plays because it will be his 700th career game.

 

[deipnosophist]

Sturridge back just in time for the derby.

 

[deipnosophist]

wow, wow, wow

nice palindrome

 

[Rook]

I think top 4 might be difficult, but on that performance, I reckon top 17 is pretty safe.

There have been some really good Quarterbacks who wear the No.17 proudly.

I am growing to like Robles. My dislike for McGeady is also growing

I will second that

They have Bolton in the cup before hand, so that may be his 700th career game for them. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it in the derby.

He was brilliant today.

And whilst you are right about him giving fouls away, so does Besic.

Besic is the future all right, but he is not yet in Barry's class when the latter is playing well.

Which he did today.

forgot about their cup replay

 

[Rook]

I will second that

I thought McGeady was alright from what I watched in the 2nd half. He's trying, I guess.

 

[deipnosophist]

I am just so happy to get 3 points...and for the results elsewhere.

 

[Coach]

Besic is the future all right, but he is not yet in Barry's class when the latter is playing well.

Which he did today.

I just didn't see this at all. I thought they walked through our midfield today and that both Barry and Besic were anonymous.

I don't think the switch to 4-1-4-1 in the second half worked at all.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I thought McGeady was alright from what I watched in the 2nd half. He's trying, I guess.

He's infuriating though, he does that great bit of play where he robbed the defender, he has so much time to pick someone out and he cocks up.

 

[Stutheblue]

I take it Barry avoided a yellow card today? If so he'll start in the Derby and be suspended for two matches after that game inevitably.
