If we're offered a draw, I would rip their hand off. We should 'expect' to get beaten - anything else is a massive result. They are much better than we are.

Fully agree with Superfly.

Everything is relative as far as Man Utd. are concerned, all because they are not doing as well as the last number of years doesn't mean we should expect to win, they are 7th after all with joint 3rd most away wins and joint 5th fewest defeats.

If we do draw we tie level on points with both Hull & Stoke who have Cardiff & Man. City respectively, although I would prefer Hull to beat Cardiff to keep Cardiff's points as they are.

For me its not Man Utd's talent that has dropped so much from Ferguson's team last season its the mental side of their game and now they aren't so a dominant side, sides don't feel beaten before the match starts.

Find out what team is in which division, eg which division is Coppull United in?

Would love a win and believe it is possible - probably the best time to be playing them in the last decade. I will, however, go for a 1-1 draw.


I think it is to our advantage that they have been to Dubai. They are going to find playing at Selhurst pretty challenging, but they have some great players still, and will be learning how best to use Mata. Lets not get above ourselves. A draw would be a great result, and a narrow loss acceptable.

Apologies for not being able to prove this point but I read somewhere last week that if the League Season had started the day Pulis took over then we would be above United.

Seeing that we have played all the top teams since that time with the exception of Liverpool and Everton then that position isn't that false.

It would be great to take a point if not three off Man U in that so far Everton is the only club in the top 9 that we have taken a point off so far.

As long as no one dare stands up in front of you eh?

Absolutely. I would 'Tear a strip' off anyone who dared to behave in such a despicable manner.

We should all expect a win from this game.

I'm afraid I don't.
It's a massive ask for us and I can see Man Utd taking all three points.


I'm afraid I don't agree. I can see us taking at least a point off of them. The fear factor they had under SAF is long gone, but an upset win would go a long way to securing our status.

Depends on which man utd turns up. Moyes may make changes after champions league game to rest some. If they come expecting 3 points then we may just nick the win. If they come for a hard battle they IMO have the edge on us. If offered the draw i'd take it casually like i was doing them the favour

We have to start getting points off the big teams at some point if we're going to stay up.

 


It was my dream to play for Palace and to make my debut. I've always played for the club so if I'm playing here, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Getting carried away to expect that we beat Man United. Or any other team, in all honesty. I don't expect us to win games but I place more emphasis on beating the teams south of 9th place, since taking points off them has more impact on our chances of survival. Still, I would not be surprised if we get something from this game - would love it. The look on all the south London man united fans' faces would be gold. Moyes will be desperate to win this.

If the Everton game wasn't called off and we'd have put in a decent shift there, which would have served as another 90mins for our new signings to gel, then we'd have been in a much better position to get a draw or, gasp, possible win, but I think the momentum we should have got after WBA has petered out now.


Is my view. Draw - PLEASE.

NOT there Football Team at this moment in Time.
Several Clubs have beaten them who have never in the past.
WE have held our own this Season.
WE are quite a good TEAM.
Saturday will be our Day.
