Here is the Palace squad for the game . . .

Palace: Johnstone (GK); Ward, Andersen, Guéhi, Clyne, Lerma, Doucouré, Eze, Schlupp, Edouard, Ayew<br> Subs: Matthews (GK), Whitworth (GK), O’Brien, Tomkins, Richards, Rïedewald, Ozoh, Ahamada, Mateta, Gordon, Rak-Sakyi

No & 4 of the subs are U21's. We know Mitchell, Hughes & Olise are injured, tho Mitchell, if reports are to be believe, he should/could be back for our 1st match. After that, your guess is as good as mine.

HT 1-0

Plus's for me watching, Schlupp, Eze, Clyne & Ayew. Minus's, Far side lino, niggly fouls by Lyon & Edouard.

Apart from that, a fairly tidy half by Palace, but, still have kittens every time they pass it back to the defence, Wardy doen't like it. Just my opinion.

Jairo on for Ward gone to LB, Clyne gone to RB.

Bearing in mind many believe pre-season friendlies mean absolutely nothing here is my take.
We look like an experienced (which we are) well-drilled organised outfit that have a reasonable idea of what they are doing.
Our squad now has a decent number of Premier League games under their collective belts, which I think will assist in us enjoying a non-relegation season.
