  • Palace (A) 3pm Sunday 21 April (not on TV)

    Well you know me by now, I can always find a positive from a display like that.

    My stream was brilliant.

    You been rustling Buffy?
    Lol no, I bought a leg of lamb when it was on special for Easter and cut it into 3 joints. Each joint is way too big for one person really, but, what can I say, I love roast lamb.

    As last week, at least I've got roast lamb to look forward to again.

    So it’s not weak officiating to not book a player because he feels he would have to also book a different player?
    I do see your point, and you have a good argument.

    Why feel sorry for Moyes? He chose to let players go in January, he chooses our defensive style, he prefers a small squad. Some or most of our players are just not at the game but it is not surprising given the above.
  • Leverkusen (H) Thursday 18 April 8pm live on TNT

    Was not able to watch it live, kept off the internet and resigned myself to what I expected to e a really tough watch, and how wrong was I, what an amazing first half that was, truthfully did not see that coming.

    Agree with all the prior comments, we gave it all but ran out of steam in the second half and the ref was appalling.

    So proud of everyone on that team, I think that all supporters ever want is to see the players give everything for the shirt and my goodness, that is what we saw last night.

    Leverkusen are not just a good team, they are a great team in top form and they know that they were in a game yesterday, and that is the greatest compliment I can give.

    That was a special occasion and we so nearly pulled it off

    Glasner has been in charge for 8 games, W2 D3 L3

    He plays 3-4-2-1 and apart from injuries he sticks to pretty much the same starting XI

    Except there have been a lot of injuries

    For starters first choice keeper Sam Johnstone injured his elbow back in March and backup Dean Henderson has been between the sticks for the last four games

    He's also having a bit of a problem finding three fit centre backs with Joachim Andersen the only CB to play all eight games.

    Marc Guehi has been out since February and Chris Richards has missed the last three. CM/DM Jefferson Lerma and RB Nathaniel Clyne have been played as makeshift CBs to fill the gaps but Lerma picked up an injury against Liverpool.

    Joel Ward faces a late fitness test with a groin problem although Rob Holding has been passed fit but he's been out since November and has only played once all season back in September.

    In the midfield they've been without DM Cheick Doucoure since November although they signed Blackburn's 20yo CM/DM Adam Wharton on deadline day for £18m with £4m add ons and reports suggest he's been impressive

    CM/DM Will Hughes slotted into midfield alongside Wharton when Lerma dropped back into defence but he's another late fitness test. If he's not available then possible options are Jeffrey Schlupp or Jairo Riedewald although neither has started this year

    No reported problems with LWB Tyrick Mitchell or RWB Daniel Munoz (signed on loan from Genk in January)and both have started the last eight

    Up front Eberechi Eze has started the last six after recovering from injury and Michael Olise started last weekend after two months off. They have replaced Jordan Ayew and Odsonne Edouard behind Jean-Philippe Mateta, another ever present under Glasner and Palace's top scorer with 10
