Make them change ends at kick off. It does make a difference. Guest on Hawksbee and Jacobs has recorded it all and it does. Last time Chelsea were beaten at home Liverpool turned them round.

Hazard might be out. Conte has been switching to 4 at the back when its level for the last 25 minutes. If we can keep it level to then then we could get lucky on the break. Will have to be a huge defensive performance and a lot of luck but with no Hazard we could get the run of the green.

It was claimed on TalkSh!te that big teams were more likely to get turned over when the other lot won the toss and asked them to change ends. So we need to remember our double headed coin (and make sure Puncheon knows not to call "tails" ). Edited by chateauferret (21 Mar 2017 5.42pm)

Theoretically we should not win but all theories are there to be debunked. It will interesting to see if Sam plays the same team or not. If PVA is fit again I'd like to see Schlupp played left midfield in place of Townsend as he seems to be able to defend and attack. I'd keep Wilf on the right just to have a breakaway option and look at McArthur replacing Puncheon in the Centre alongside Cabaye. This sort of formation might better stifle them and won't necessarily hamper our attacking options based on previous performances.

Like your thinking Direwolf. We've got some options now so using them might be useful in our fixture pile-up in April.

Various reports saying Courtois, Hazard, Costa & Moses are all injury doubts as is Terry. Could make it interesting.
Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five! |

I would fancy us sneaking some points against Man City or Arsenal but not Chelsea. They have been superb this season. Fully expect a loss. A point would be unbelievably good against them.
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

I won't be shocked to get beat by 3 or more, but I won't be shocked either if we sneak a win. Despite their league placings, WBA, Middlesbrough and Watford were very strong and we managed to beat them. WBA just smashed Arsenal 3-1. This could be that game that catches the league leaders out. If Palace have improved just a little on the recent form then Chelsea are in for a reality check. Answer: YES, by all means we can sneak a point and even three.
