Knockaert
Baldock
Murray

Goldson purely for his better pace/athleticism than Duffy. Rosenior who’s done decent enough job at RM before and is experienced and cool headed for the hostile atmosphere.
Locadia just for the pace to worry Palace’s sometime static defence.

Defensive down the wings to double up on Townsend and Zaha.

Murray to start, but begging CH to sub him once he's knackered.

If Benteke isn't playing surely Townsend and Zaha will be the front two. Bong has the pace to defend Zaha.

My concern is a replacement for Propper, I presume the centre midfield will be Stephens and Kayak with Gross dropping in to assist. Wish Gross could tackle and compete for headers.

For me it would be:

Ryan
Schelloto - Dunk - Duffy - Suttner
Gross - Stephens - Kayal
Locadia - Izquierdo
Murray

I prefer Suttner at left back because he is a much better passer & crosser of the ball. Palace will play Zaha & Townsend in more central roles so I don’t think we need to worry about them being out and out wingers, so playing 3 in midfield is more likely to cut off the supply to Zaha & Townsend. Keep Muzza up top with Locadia & Izquierdo playing off him either side to use their pace to feed off of him and not leave him as isolated as he was on Saturday.

Like to look of this bar playing Rosenior as a right winger/ wide midfielder. Would prefer to see AK or March.

Failing this, I’d go with 3-5-2.

Keep Muzza up top with Locadia playing in a free role to use his pace to feed off of Muzza.
Starting with ten men will sure as hell confuse the living daylights out of them.

Probably.
But I'd like to see Locadia given a chance, Murray and Ulloa are good if we're delivering crosses, but our wingers don't so let go with some pace up front instead
I agree, especially as I don’t think Tompkins and the fella with the funny hair are that quick. Hughton will play it cagey though I’d have thought, at least to start with, and go with the tried and tested.

Actually, wouldn't tired and tested be more appropriate for some of our players now? CM and CB especially.

You had to play Murray against the Scum, he needs to play a pivotal part in sending franchise FC down
