Crystal Palace, Man U this weekend. I'm dreading this game. If CP plays its usual game (a 442 thats really a 541), Man U will be running at us non-stop with 60% possession through the first half. If we're lucky Johnson will get a few shots to counter attack.

Considering how the team (and Johnson) is going through a dry spell I'll be amazed if we get a goal. Who know, it may be another CP - Arsenal game where Man U gets frustrated at not scoring and we count ourselves lucky to get a point. Or they cream us. The Tivo is set for Fox Sports world. Go Palace.

Best Case scenario: 0-0 or 1-1
Worst Case scenario: 3-0

Not too bad of a result...you guys worked hard and looked better then lower table stuff....also always nice to see Kolkka score as he always manages to get a nice goal in a big game.

Everything was rosy till about 10 minutes after the half. Man, did ManU clean our clocks. I though the never-ending waves of attacks that Arsenal threw at CP was bad, Man U was worse. The team played well, but Giggs killed us.

Hey Dowie, show us a wave and get us a Froward!

I feel bad for AJ. Everyone knows that he's the only threat we got and shut him down.

I really give Palace credit for coming back not once but twice. There's a lot of fight in that team, and if Dowie can pick up one or two impact players (preferably on offense), I can see Palace staying up another year. The goals need to come from somewhere though.

Latest stuff on the team is Dowie looking for 3 players. Another defender, A Offensive mid-fielder, and of course an experienced striker. Alot of fans feel that the team won't start winning till it plays something other than the 4-5-1 all the time. And to do that he needs another striker to back AJ up plus an Offensive Middie to feed the two of them the ball. The present Palace midfield is pretty much all defense with some counterattacking long passes forward. The team doesnt have that slow buildup in the midfield.
