Tony V or Tony M?
M.
Was thinking same thing. Need to know for my line up."Anthony Martial was also not seen with the rest of the travelling party, but players have travelled down to London separately in the past." (MEN)
@No Idea For Nickname @Adisa Still a doubt. Could either be out due to injury or joining later travelling separately.
You know that we will start our slow and measured (to conserve energy).
Then turn up the wick in the 2nd half, if we are drawing or losing.
Should we go 1 goal up, we will sit back, invite pressure on ourselves, make CP look like league title contenders, until the final whistle blows.
Wow looking forward to it? I still watch all the games but can honestly say I dont look forward to our games anymore. Awful to watch
I'm optimistic. Always think "this is the day when we start to play fantastic, and never look back". Usually get disapointed at the end of the game, but happy enough if we win. That day is coming, you know. Might be today.We'll tonk them cnuts. Cmon!
I keep putting money on us winning big and I’ve lost a fortune!
Add to that : Wickham, Speroni, Loftus-Cheek

Not been in on a football day, but I’d be surprised if it wasn’t reasonably safe. Good beer; like a Wetherspoons only less generic.De Gea
Valencia Smalling Lindelof Young
McTominay Matic Pogba
Lingard Lukaku Sanchez
Subs: Romero, Shaw, Bailly, Carrick, Mata, Rashford, Martial
Nice timing for us with Palace having so many injuries. Could maybe see Bailly coming in for Lindelof, would be harsh on Lindelof but Bailly needs minutes.Gone for a draw. Since SAF retired, every time I've thought "that was a good performance; maybe we've turned a corner" it turned out that we hadn't. Not moaning. Just risk-averse
Travelling Squad
GK: David de Gea, Sergio Romero, Joel Pereira
Def: Antonio Valencia, Matteo Darmian, Victor Lindelof, Chris Smalling, Eric Bailly, Ashley Young, Luke Shaw
Mid: Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay, Michael Carrick, Nemanja Matic
Att: Juan Mata, Alexis Sanchez, Marcus Rashford, Romelu Lukaku, Jesse Lingod
It's an away game. I'm not getting high hopes for the performance. We almost never play well away. Would love to be proved wrong though.
No Martial?If we get a win tonight and a win against Liverpool on Saturday (which will be very tough with the form they’re in) I wouldn’t be surprised to start seeing some players getting rested in the premiership games as Mourinho starts to concentrate on the CL and FA cup if he feels 4th is more or less nailed on and after yesterday’s results with Arsenal and Chelsea it is looking more and more likely that we’re looking at the top 4 as it stands now.Not looking forward to this. Away game, annoying crowd, probably a keeper to play on his best levelJust avoid Crystanbul and I ll be happyMartial injured?
I reckon Jose will play a two man midfield. Lingard in for McTominay and he will call it a 4-3-3 in all probability.
DDG always at his best mate.Not looking forward to this. Away game, annoying crowd, probably a keeper to play on his best level
I am going to have couple of pints over this to mild the pain of watching us away..
Going for a 0-1 or 1-2...Mata has a good scoring record against Palace, I'd give him the nod over LingardI hope Bailly gets a start tonight. Given that they are a bit toothless, may be worth seeing the future - Bailly/Lindelov partnership. Have a feeling that Pogba may have an amazing game tonight.Not looking forward to this. Away game, annoying crowd, probably a keeper to play on his best level
It's the "GK to put in a MOTM performance" that worries me.
I still remember Heaton, for Burnley was ridiculously good last season, against us, at OT.
I wanted to see what he did in his very next game. And just as I thought, I think he let in 4 goals.
The problem is that a lot of these teams/players, play MUFC games, as if it is their cup final. So they pump themselves up for the game.
A great example of this was when we played Newcastle. They are near the bottom of the table, but when we played them, they played like title contenders.Let’s actually impose ourselves on this game please and not shit the bed and concede 2/3rds of the pitch to a Hodgson team.
A big win would be good here to keep confidence high ahead of Liverpool and Sevilla.Away to CP was one of maybe three games of Moyes' tenure I actually enjoyed watching us play. I think we won 2-0 with an attack of RvP, Rooney, Mata & Januzaj in a 4-2-2-2. It'd be nice to see something similar again tonight.Martial has a slight knock, nothing serious, but not being risked. As per SFR.Hope we make good use of Lukaku as more than just a target man, he can create gaps for the likes of Pogba/Sanchez/etc to run into
I reckon it will be similar to Chelsea and Sanchez is going to be pushed up the top next to Lukaku with Lingard taking his place in 4-2-2-2. Lukaku needs a partner to flourish.Hope Sanchez has a big game. Think he needs a confidence boost and could use one before the run in and start showing how good he is consistently. Has the ability to be the main man for us, but always hard coming in January into a team struggling for form.
I've had him in my lineup for last two matches. Tonight's the night. Drop Smalling or Lindelof.Away pubs today?
This is a supposedly "leaked" XI (source: Manchester Evening News)
De Gea, Valencia, Lindelof, Smalling, Young, McTominay, Pogba, Matic, Sanchez, Lingard, LukakuAnyone know what's up with Martial?
Slight injury, just a precaution.
Little injury, apparently nothing serious. Even if fit I don't think he would have started this game anyway.
Our subs are a bit of a problem though. Can see Mata and Rashford coming on with the third sub being to give Bailly some minutes.
The Railway Telegraph, or The Flora Sandes. Both right outside Thornton Heath station- Status
