So assuming Physio Room has everything right on injuries and we don't rush RLC or Macs back, does it look like this? Hennessy GK TFM RB Kelly and Tompkins CB Schlupp LB Cabaye and Luka CM Jairo LW Andros RW Wilf and Benteke up top Maybe Jairo more defensive and YC in behind Benteke. I'd hope either RLC or Macca pass late fitness tests. Also, does Speroni come back or PVA stay? So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

Id like to see Jules and PVA start. I think with rlc we can let him have a go, young and on loan, with decent cover behind him in macca- could also drop Wilf down to midfield and replace with sako at some point during the match to let rlc have a go in the 1st half. Wonder how we would do with sako and benteke up top with andros and wilf on the wings at some point late on Edited by tpuffpendants (01 Jan 2018 5.19am)

Selection headache for Roy, hard to drop any of the 11 after yesterday. Maybe Schlupp back in for PVA to give us more pace. You also feel that RLC will hve to fit in somewhere, probably at the expense of Jairo who was tremendous against City. Hennessey TFM - Kelly - Tomkins - Schlupp Milo RLC - Cabaye Townsend - Benteke - Zaha

I know Wayne played really well and is in good form but something is telling me to play Jules. I wouldn't start with Cabaye, I would start with McCarthur.

I wouldn't start with Cabaye, I would start with McCarthur. I really don’t think Jairo can be left out after that performance yesterday- ran TFM close for MoM in my opinion. He seems to thrive against a less physical opposition & Saints aren’t really that kind of team either. Probably the best passer of a ball we have that is comfortable at DM & it would be interesting to see him play with RLC ahead of him. Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five!

Team to be dictated not just by the Oppo but by injuries and fatigue. I have no idea who is match fit so tough to predict this one. However, I think the Dutch lads have earned a start. And poor yohan needs a rest.

I wonder if we might see Michael Phillips called up to the first team and take a place on the bench. Although we won't want to throw him in at the deep end he may have to be used. Not saying he'd be better or in front of Delaney but we should have two cover options at CB from the bench right?
