TODAY'S RESULT WAS OK

Our players were tired after Tuesday's effort. Otherwise we would have beaten them.
Look at some of the other results today:
Spurs only draw at home with Wolves. Why? Knackered after playing midweek.
Liverpool draw at home to Stoke. Why? Knackered after their midweek game v Man City.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT 100% EFFORT INTO TWO GAMES IN A WEEK.
Thankfully, we have a full week before Portsmouth Saturday.
But if everybody plays 90 mins for that game, how good can we be the following Tuesday?

Difference is same will apply to Palace.

It is the next game after Palace we will have the same problem.

Yes, you're right.
Thing is, it's worth it (just) if we can get to Wembley again.....

Just checked. after Palace on the Tuesday (24th), next game is Southampton away on Tuesday, 31st!?
