Forward of what needs to be a memorable day, we spoke to Eagles supporter Robbie Scotcher (@RobbieScotcher) to listen to all about Wembley final weekend, Liverpool’s title win and way more.
Simply how particular was final weekend?
It’s laborious to explain.
It’s the one factor I at all times wished for us. I wished us to elevate the FA Cup and I really obtained to see it, and it was higher than I assumed it might be.
We’ve solely been an everyday within the Premier League for the previous 12 years – previous to that, we have been a yoyo membership. In 2010, we have been an hour away from liquidation.
I assumed the day was an enormous celebration of the membership and what we’re about.
It was top-of-the-line days of my life, and to be trustworthy, I’ve nonetheless not come down from the clouds.
Does it instantly give Glasner legendary standing? How good has he been?
Sure, Oliver Glasner and the entire squad will all get legendary standing.
Glasner has given us a strong type of soccer, which though may be defensive, is nice to observe.
He has improved gamers and improved Crystal Palace as a membership.
Who’ve been Palace’s three finest gamers?
It’s all concerning the system with Glasner, and though we now have some magicians within the squad, that system is the important thing.
That mentioned, you want a participant like Daniel Munoz to make that system work. He’s most likely Palace’s Participant of the Season.
Dean Henderson has proven actual high quality all through, whereas the defence have been distinctive as a unit.
Eberechi Eze may be unplayable, and each him and Jean-Philippe Mateta have scored some large targets. Ismaila Sarr has additionally actually settled and his targets helped take us to Wembley.
I might maintain going – in my view, it’s the perfect Palace facet ever, in its finest second.
Daichi Kamada struggled by way of many of the season till the Brighton sport, then he has grown in confidence since then.
He was an enormous participant within the cup run and was a centre-back at one level within the closing. He has had the largest journey.
How do you assess Liverpool’s title-winning season?
Straightforward, wasn’t it?
Arne Slot has completely smashed it.
From the skin, it doesn’t seem to be it was a straightforward season off the pitch, however Liverpool have been miles forward of anybody else.
Whole class.

You have got many elite world-class footballers.
However I wouldn’t swap any of the gamers we now have proper now for anybody. I really like all of them.
What’s your favorite and worst reminiscence of any sport in opposition to Liverpool?
They tie collectively. I used to be a paperboy and used to seek out out the outcomes of the midweek video games within the morning.
Liverpool 9-0 Crystal Palace in 1990 was a really laborious shift. I had simply moved and was the one Palace fan in a playground filled with Liverpool and Man United followers.
It’s within the south, so glory hunters, the lot of them!
My dad made me put on my Palace scarf to highschool and I took a superb ribbing, so once we beat you guys 4-3 in semi-final of the FA Cup to get to the ultimate, it was all of the sweeter.
That sport for a lot of is their biggest reminiscence of Palace – the ultimate was a 3-3 draw and we misplaced to United 1-0 within the replay – however this weekend simply topped that.
Waiting for Sunday, the place are the important thing battles?
Preserving the bar stocked and hoping the voice holds out till the ultimate whistle!
Lastly, what’s your prediction?
The best celebration of all time. I believe will probably be one huge, loud, joyous celebration.
This season, soccer gained.
