Would it be different if the difference between Prem and Champs wasn't so huge? Back in the day clubs could yo-yo between the two divs seemingly keeping the same manager for decades.

Now it can be a catastrophe if you are relegated. Then tv money wasn't an issue. Clubs have insulated themselves with different wages for players if they are relegated but it's still a massive blow for most clubs.

What a surprise, another good player that got a Premier gig on his reputation as a player rather than as a manager. Just like Gerrard and Lampard. When will clubs learn?

Not sure he can have too many complaints. They are seriously dull to watch despite all their attacking talent......... Their midfield is awful. Not replacing Gallagher has seemingly bit them on the arse.

He's just not a very good manager at all. His record is extremely patchy.

One win in 13 with it being tight in the relegation battle, can see why they're twitchy.

You can see how teams get sucked into trouble in the Prem though. You forget what a minefield it is. They went into January looking fine, then they're faced with this run.
Hard to know which game they 'should' have won.
Crystal Palace 0–4 Tottenham Hotspur Chelsea 1–0 Crystal Palace Crystal Palace 1–1 Manchester United Crystal Palace 0–0 Newcastle United Manchester United 2–1 Crystal Palace Crystal Palace 1–1 Brighton & Hove Albion Brentford 1–1 Crystal Palace Crystal Palace 0–0 Liverpool Aston Villa 1–0 Crystal Palace Crystal Palace 0–1 Manchester City Brighton & Hove Albion 1–0 Crystal Palace

Looking at the results as well is why I didn't think they were in trouble. Bar Spurs they are all close scores. They just didn't feel in trouble. It's a tough set of fixtures too mainly against the top 7/8.

Will probably be a SOS call to Woy Hodgson to save their season..... Personally I would go for this magician.....Just Like That!

Not every team can be "top" spot and some teams MUST be at the bottom. It's tough. If you haven't got mega-millions to spend on 1/2 of Spain's up and coming task force then basically you're coming back down to the Brit the following year. I guess the displays haven't been up to much either which has caused the bullet to be fired.

I'd be taking a punt on Will Still if I was Palace. Touch of the Graham Potter's about him and how he goes about his business.

If he'd got those additional 4 points then I think he would have been fine, would have then 7 points above the relegation places with nobody seemingly putting together any kind of consistent run to pull away. Wouldn't have changed their position as they would still be 12th, but may have put them into the bracket of teams unlikely to get relegated. Crazy that there is only 5 points separating 12th from 20th- should be a great end to the season for us neutrals! V fine margins this season and a lottery went it comes to deciding if/when to pull the trigger and hope for the new manager bounce.
