Can't see Webster playing. Biggest debate will be right side of defence and who partners Dunk.

I know it will vary according to opponents, but in general I see the defensive pecking order as .....

Dunk
Colwill
Veltman
Webster
Van Hecke

Very harsh on Webby to be down there, but he needs consistent fitness to work his way back up the order.

Just looking at the team we had there for the 1-1 last season. Very different! We look so much stronger this time around.

Caciedo and mitoma ..... Not sure about so much stronger.
Mac Allister was on the bench.
Those 3 are immense for us now.

Think the key is our wide players as their fullbacks are very poor ( yes I know Mitchell is rated by most Palace fans, but he always looks like a rabbit in headlights to me). My concern is that we are not very good against teams that park the bus and think Viera is no fool and will pack the midfield and defence and try to hit us on the break. As no Zaha, they will rely on Eze and/or Olise, good flair players but very lazy ( that's my mates verdict) backed up by Palace are top of the lazy league as they don't put the legs in. Heart says win, head says draw, devil says lose.

Sanchez
Lamptey Veltman Dunk Estupinan
March Caicedo MacAllister Mitoma
Gross
Welbeck (if Fergie not fit)

Tough to leave out Sarmiento however I wouldn't be surprised if De Zerbi actually plays Gross at RB (inter-position with March)with Sarmiento behind Welbeck/Fergie, he's just crazy enough to do it!

Press conference going on now. Lallana & Colwill out but Ferguson fit.
Saying Veltman will play ( and Mac)

Is it unusual for managers to commit to playing certain players?
RDZ seems to do it a fair amount.

It seems to be different to the usual ," player is available" comments.
Or is this a language barrier, do we think?
