Derby build up thread

Barkley wont be ready for Tomorrow and its not worth risking him by rushing his recovery.

He has a toe injury that's been rested for three weeks. Put an injection in it and get on with it.

They're not being asked to climb out of the trenches and run into no man's land in the First World War. He'll be fine.

Suarez and Sturridge will be the difference for them again

 

[lmurkder]

Apologies for it being so late lid. Proper sloppy here like.

Always. Every. Single. Week.

...playing both of them might give us an edge in midfield.

Which wont make the blindest bit of difference is Osman plays. If Barkley plays then maybe.

Huge game for Palace tomorrow night v Flat Nose Bruce X1 and I should be concentrating on biting my nails down to the quick on that really but the Merseyside Derby has fascinated me since I was a lad in the 60's. It ranks alongside the Old Firm for passion and towers over the Manc and North London games in my mind. I've always been for Everton. Steak Pie v Toffu, Debbie Harry v Lady Di, Ramones v Spandau Ballet, Jaguar XJ6 v Peugeot 305. Now there are some people in the world who would think it OK to drive Lady Di to a Spandau Ballet concert in a Peugeot 305, and they, my friends are kopites. Delude ,self righteous, entitled, kopites. For the good of football in this country.......SMASH DEEZE PLEASE.....and spare a thought for us at Selhurst. Ta.

Only if he goes 2 up top; if he drops one of them to the wings and packs the midfield it'll be a different game; they go 2 mids central, with them 2 up top, and we should over run them

For Sturridge and Suarez to make the difference they have to get the ball. And they won't see much of it.

Agreed. But...

I would be staggered if barkley plays a Derby after no game time at all.

?

 

[davek]

Agreed. But...



?

...yes, by the club easing him back. I'm saying get a jab in him and get him out.

I´m all for optimism mate but I´m note sure we´ll hog possession with Coleman, Barkley and Pienaar all out. Colemans advanced position is vital for our passing game.

Wonder exactly when the team will be announced?

I think we will tbh.

Our chances pretty much rest on him playing.
