Crystal Palace 1-2 Chelsea, Tomkins, 26

Week 34 of the PL season predictions. Person with the most points at the end of the season wins a terrible Chelsea-themed prize. Your prediction should be of the score, the first goal scorer and the minute of the first goal. For example, if I am predicting 2-1 to Chelsea with the first goal scored by Zouma in the 5th minute: Crystal Palace 1-2 Chelsea, Zouma, 5 If you're predicting a 0-0, then the player name and minute should be of the first shot on target, rather than first goal. Deadline is 30 minutes before kick-off. ------------------ Correct Result (W, D, L): 1 point Correct Score: 5 points Correct First Scorer: 5 points Correct First Scorer and Minute: 15 points Correct Everything: 50 points -------------------- Current Leaderboard So Far: Scott Harris 60 Zeta 49 Amputechture 44 erksblue 37 Salato 37 axeman2526 34 Juan Nil 25 BlueLilly 23 Bonzodog29 22 chiefBlueCFC 22

That means Scott Harris has taken a commanding lead at the top, with 5 games to go. But remember, all it takes is one perfect prediction and you'll shoot to the top. Scott Harris 60 Zeta 49 Amputechture 44 erksblue 37 Salato 37 axeman2526 34 Juan Nil 25 BlueLilly 23 Bonzodog29 22 chiefBlueCFC 22

A high-scoring week this week, with a correct score and several correct first scorers. And I think I'm right in saying the first time anyone has got the scorer and time for 15 points.

Prime Cech would be conceding lots of goals in this team. The defence is absolutely awful.

Chelsea 3-0 Watford, Jorginho, 16

GK: I think we should give Kepa another year to see how he does. He's not as bad as some make out. LB: Alonso is a decent option to have, due to his goal threat. Emerson I have just not been impressed with at all. RB: Azpilicueta has been on the decline lately and might be time to start gradually moving him out of the team. James I am still unsure about, he looks good going forward and his crossing is quality, but he always looks slow and uninterested going back. Kind of like a right-sided Alonso. CB: Christensen just continues to disappoint. He's still young and I wouldn't give up completely yet, but he needs to improve dramatically and soon. Rudiger is just not good enough to be a first-choice CB. Zouma not a fan of his, but honestly I'd have him above the other until the end of the season and just see what happens. Tomori still young, but has looked dodgy on occasion. Problem is, I just don't know who else there is out there at CB who would be available and who would actually improve us. There's no point spending 50m on Ake or Rice, as they are not an upgrade on our current options.

Er.. did they? I seem to recall some piss poor performances and batterings under Sarri.

Standard defensive performance. Awful all around, especially Christensen.

When are we going to actually get better at defending set pieces? We've been appaling at them for so long now.
