0-4, without Eze and Olise we are actually the worst team in the division. The approach needs a total rethink without them, and that isn't going to happen without changes in management.

Roy has a free hit with the fans with no downside and that is to put Johnstone in goal!!! A positive start (ie not conceding before 4th minute) and I fancy a 2-1 win. If he sticks with Henderson (stubbornness and poor judgement IMO) feel he will lose the fans quickly and also weaken our chances of a win 1-2 Chelsea.

Chelsea victory, whether by one goal or five. Fact is this current side under Hodgson looks lost, cant defend nor attack, the worst of all scenarios.

Agreed,Johnstone is our best option to prevent an early Chelsea lead.

Believe it was Martin Keown who recently commented that it we manage to keep those two fit and in the side,we stay up. If we don't,then we are relegated.

We have lost our last 12 (yes TWELVE) league games against Chelsea (Plus a certain FA Cup semi). The last time we beat Chelsea in the league was when we had lost the first 7 games of the season without scoring a goal and under Hodgson beat Mourinho's reigning PL champions 2-1. Ironically, we couldn't even score our first goal in that game - Chelsea had to do it for us. So as Chelsea was Hodgson's first win as a Palace manager, might Monday week be his last? Sadly, I think it unlikely and we will fall to yet another abject defeat having employed the same tactics that currently aren't working.

Happy to go down in truth. Apart from 2 brief spells when we played well under Viera and at the end of last seasons, we have had 5 seasons of setting up for 0-0 draws and trying to beat the 5 teams below us in the league. Cooper for me. Inherits a squad of decent individuals, would give home grown youth a chance, would play a more exciting brand of football and knows how to get out of the Championship. Forest fans still supported him as he was sacked. Hodgson runs off down the tunnel at the end of games, pops up in post match interviews to say "of course it is all very difficult". Only Brighton fans want him here anymore. He has become a joke. His legacy is massive underperformance accept for a brief spell at Fulham. England, Liverpool, Watford and now Palace - the fella has become a laughing stock.

I will not gallivant into the realms of the tenureship of Mr Hodgson, however our supporters at Selhurst Park have certainly been short-changed in terms of results and performances. I for one do not look forward to attending matches any more and at this moment of time I do not envisage myself making a 4 hour round trip in midweek to take my seat for the Chelsea game. Those who know me will be astonished if I happen to stay in the warmth of 'Chez Willo' rather than attend the game as they know that I have been an ardent and dedicated supporter of the club since the 60s and how committed I have been over the years.
