2. Provoke Suarez
The game at Anfield will be Luis Suarez's first game back in the Premier League since his biting antics against Chelsea. It was disgraceful behaviour and I think the whole footballing world now know (if they were in any doubt before) that Mr Saurez is a firecracker. He has bags of ability and can win matches all on his own with moments of genius and wonderment. A lot will be expected of him from the Liverpool faithful in part due a hoped continue of form from last season and also to pay back their faith in him after his summer antics of wanting to seemingly escape Anfield for a more success climate. Provoking Suarez and forcing the referee to produce a red card would surely be helpful for Palaces cause. I would like to point out I do not approve of overly aggressive behaviour on the pitch (regardless of team) and there is no place for kicking, hitting or biting in the gentleman's game. However.. Should Palace pressure Suarez while he's on the ball (fairly) and he were to snap and assault someone then it would cause Liverpool a headache in more ways then one. Much like the attention Rooney gets in games, as long as it's done within the letter of the law then no one will complain (apart from Suarez of course). It is a fact that with that early goal (here's hoping) then having to face only 10 men Palace would be very much in the driving seat.
