It all depends on how CH is managing them in training. I would imagine Stephens and Propper are doing minimal "fitness" work and it would mainly be ball ork and technical stuff. I ready a study about football fitness compared to aerobic fitness; the aerobic stuff should be taken as read as done in pre-season. After that it's all about managing workload and working on football specific fitness.
The report was massively scathing of Pulis (and Klopp for balance) and the propensity to run players into the ground when not playing well.

My favourite quote off of twitter is this
"Palace have not won a Premier league without Zaha since September 2016, and that was against Sunderland which doesn't really count".
Says it all for me. One man team.

Zaha is a good player, no doubt. He's so good, in fact, that I hope he plays against all our relegation rivals and scores hat-tricks against them.

Always want them relegated. All of their gloating during our Withdean years means I want nothing but hard times for them.

With all their injuries, it’s a good job the club made paying StJohns Ambulance Service, and the London Ambulance Service, a priority after their last administration.

I'm not one to wish an injury on any player, that said I hope he takes at least 12 weeks to get the proper treatment and recovery for his injury.
No way. No one is safe yet, Palace and West Ham especially. Improved form for a while is standard issue for every team in the bottom 12. After the first few games we were superb for a while, then we were shit for quite a while. Palace and West Ham were terrible at the start then quite good for a while. Newcastle were shit, then pretty good, now back to shit again. I can do this for every team if needs be, even Swansea who we all thought were dead and buried have turned it round recently. 12 teams can still go down and it is likely to stay that way until very close to the end of the season.

We've lost twice in 15 games, both times to Arsenal. I don't think we've had a bounce, I think that Roy has turned us into a solid midtable team.
Hopefully Wilf isn't out for more than a month, we've got an international break after the Everton game this weekend which would mean that he'd only miss two or three games in total. We've been incredibly unluckly with serious injuries this season
As long as he's back for the last 6/7 games (which are all against teams that we'd hope to beat) then we should still be absolutely fine.

Lovely, very pleased to hear such heartening news .

It's not an international break after the next game.We've lost twice in 15 games, both times to Arsenal. I don't think we've had a bounce, I think that Roy has turned us into a solid midtable team.

It's a break because someone knocked you out of the cup [emoji38]ol:

Leicester, Brighton, Bournemouth, Watford, Stoke, WBA in your last six....as you say 6 easy looking fixtures to end the season, but it’s feasible that four or five of them could be scrambling to stay up. None of them are going to give you the points for turning up.We've lost twice in 15 games, both times to Arsenal.

Can you imagine how desperate Stoke are going to be in that penultimate game, or Pardew in the last one at Selhurst. That’s even with Zaha.

Are you all telling yourselves it’s an International break afterEverton, instead of the FA Cup 5th round weekend that you no longer have any interest in because we knocked you out in the 3 rd round?

Which is a cracking run lets be honest, 2 defeats in 15 and like us still only 3 points clear I think is what's being suggested. No one in the bottom half can now afford a bad run of results.

I can remember when we had a myriad of injuries in the Championship especially one bl**dy match which imo cost us promotion ,and if I remember rightly the palace fans were not exactly slow to come forward then .
All teams have a crisis at one point or another and they are no different, and who says the players at their disposal don`t up their game and surprise everyone.
