Pleased to see Watson back, must be his first start in almost a year.

I guess they don't want u21 academy sides to progress as not only are they playing against older league sides but they also have the best u21 players away on International duty.

Good to see Imray there, must be back to fitness.

[Latvian Eagle]

Hoping for a Palace / Sutton win tonight.

No, I hadn't thought about that either. Will make it a very tough game but I guess it's a big opportunity for a few of them.

JRS is on international duty I think.

Eze played 90 on Saturday, chucking him into another (competetive) game 3 days later would seem an unnecessary risk as he builds up fitness.

Official site says we're fielding a strong side. What bollocks when half of the regular line up are away on International duty. Why on earth did we agree to play it this week?

He was on the bench for one of the other games recently. I think he may have come on for a bit too but can't remember for sure now.

A strong sue? Pollard?

But I doubt we 'argeed' to this date. We wouldn't have had a choice. It seems like it is simply the week the competition takes place. Loads of games in the competition tonight.

Eze is not eligible to play under the competition rules

Haha. Don't send him back onto twitter. It's dangerous!

Yes he is. In actual fact, Palace could in theory field a strong side if they wanted to.

I see Miguel Azeez is playing for Portsmouth, he's on loan from Arsenal and did very well for their U23s a few weeks back against us.

from what I read they an only field 2 players over 21 who have made more the 40 first team games, so they could put in Eze and Wilf and also include Olise as he is 19, but do we want to risk them in a game like this?

Which is why I said in theory.

Not after he played 90 minutes on Saturday. No chance.

Unlucky JKG

Thought he did really well there

[Sp1Eagle]

Should be 1-0 Palace.
