Looks like bolasie will be back.

Bolasie, Zaha and Ade is a decent threat, not to be taken lightly.

Walker got roasted by Zaha when he came on at Selhurst last year. Still a better prospect than Trippier though.
He's improved defensively. Just needs to keep his eye on the ball and not be dazzled or get sold by Zaha.

Give him a couple yards and just jockey and squeeze.

I thought Pardew might rest a few for this game seeing as Palace are sliding down the table in recent weeks but I read of him saying he wants a good cup run so he will probably have his strongest team out.

Bolasie has been out two months so I'd expect him to be either on the bench or looking pretty rusty if he starts.

Bolasie is a big boost for them, I think Palace will really go for this, they are pretty safe in the league without chasing a Europa spot so they are free to give the cup all their effort.
If they can beat us and recapture their early season form they will believe they have a good chance and I wouldn't argue with them, might even be worth a punt if this weekend doesn't go well for us.

Although a day out at wembley and winning the cup would be a great end to the season, i would have no objection if we lost today but won the league.
That in its self would be a better end to a better season seeing us become champions which has not been done in my lifetime.

Why the hell are people even bothering to discuss RB? Walker and Rose are the full backs. That was settled as soon as they started last week vs City.

That being said, I might be tempted to change the rotation in order to have Trippier and Davies starting vs Arsenal

We play tomorrow. And frankly, i agree with you. I'd use the cup to play my young players and see what we have. Hopefully CCV, Onomah, Winks and Harrison all at least get game time tomorrow. CCV and Onomah need to start.

Why do CCV and Onomah "need to start"? Both players are progressing nicely at their own paces and when Poch feels its time he will put them in. CCV has had a couple of spots on the bench and hasnt come on, that should tell you he's not anywhere near getting a start just yet, so it really is pointless to keep on asking for it.

Not interested in who plays for them and what team they have out - regardless of our starting 11 - we are at home and much better than they are, a win for us.
