West Brom 3-2 Crystal Palace - 6 Things We Learned

3. Palace Getting Worse

After Palace had played Spurs in the league, most fans would have looked at the next five games as a chance to get their season back on track. Yes, it was poor losing to Aston Villa, whereas losing against Manchester City, Chelsea and Spurs is disappointing, but not catastrophic. Since that Spurs defeat, Palace have played Bournemouth, Watford, Swansea and West Brom and all of these would be classed as 'winnable'. Since that Spurs defeat, Palace have earned one point and their performance against West Brom was the worst of the lot, despite the injury worries clearing up and the addition of Adebayor.
