Likewise they will be thinking same of Geri.

I personally think most managers would go more defensive on that side with Geri in the form he is in. But knowing Pardew I think he will go toe to toe.

You know Pardew? Can text him and tell him he's an absolute Tit please?

A lot of good battles tomorrow but I think Coleman will be the key player tomorrow, he has to keep Bolasie at bay whilst also giving us that attacking threat, so his positional play is vital. With Dan and Delaney decent in the air I hope we feed Rom and co with balls to run on to. You get the feeling we might for once take advantage of results this weekend 2-1 us COYB

Not sure who should start at LB for this game.

Galloway has struggled at times against fast, tricky wingers (against Man City for example) and that seems to be Palace's thing at the moment.

However, Baines hasn't started this season and is only just back from injury, so maybe this would be throwing him in at the deep end.

I think Martinez will opt for Galloway.

6th with a win. hope we show up for the full 90 and take care of business at home. If we want Europe we'll need to be lights out at home

The way the weekend has gone I will no doubt be reaching for the bleach around this time tomorrow.

There was a nice article with Seamus in one of the Irish papers, basically saying give him a green or blue jersey and show him the wall you want him to run through. He is in a good place & is going to be a daddy soon - although he already is the daddy.

Big game for us this tomorrow, with most of the results this weekend going our way we have a big chance leap frog a few teams and close the gap on the rest. Oh please Everton don't mess this up.

I'm detecting that this game might be a quite important 'statement' by Everton. If that is indeed the case, we have not got a hope in hell of winning. Everton doesn't do pressure/expectation very well.

3-1 to the Blues, we dismantle a good Palace side and storm to sixth in the league.

Haven't felt optimism like this for a long time, but with this front three, any game is winnable.

Chance to gain on the teams we will be competing with for the top 4.... no chance we take it....

You know Pardew? Can text him and tell him he's an absolute Tit please?

And ask him where our firggin' Mars Bars are!

I feel exactly the same but for some reason I'm very confident we will beat them easily tomorrow. If anything it's next weeks away match at Norwich that stinks of an everton 1-1 slip up.

Palace fan here, in peace. Really looking forward to the game tomorrow. Was at last season's fixture with my wife, and son, who was just starting his Uni course in Physiotherapy in your great city. A friend who is an Everton season ticket holder got us tickets in with your fans and we sat respectfully not celebrating our three goals, but thoroughly enjoying the whole experience. Went for a drink before the match at the taxi drivers' club (?), and the atmosphere was great - welcoming and friendly, with a bit of banter. Now have a massive soft spot for Everton, and will enjoy the game on Sky tomorrow, regardless of the outcome. Would be delighted with a point. It could go any way, but I suspect you guys will win - Zaha's absence is a big factor, and we can't keep coming to Merseyside and picking up three points!

Excellent site - respect to you guys. Loved the preview and the great pics - thanks Chico.

Welcome mate, hope you have an enjoyable but ultimately fruitless evening on Merseyside tomorrow. Good luck though for the rest of the season.
