Emerson's ball skills leave a lot to be desired.
Did very well to get a good position with the cutback, but then, yeah...

Still hoping there's some improvement there over the summer. He's sound defensively, strong, and fit. Useful piece either way, but better as a backup in this system.

So much for the under, but I'll take a goal from Gallagher. And what a nice assist by Mitchell (who is having an incredible year).

If you didn't do it, you're hating life right now.
Well done. My captain, in contrast, Trent Alexander-Arnold, has racked up 70 points fewer than yours.

My all-time greatest Fantasy PL moment was when I was actually at a Crystal Palace game, and Yohan Cabaye had a goal and assist. And I thought, "man, I wish I had triple-captained him this week." And then Sergio Aguero, who I did TC, scored 5 against Newcastle. That probably moved me up 10 places by itself in the SoSH league.

I may regret writing this...but I don't think that even Palace can drop the points from 3-1 with only 5 minutes to go.

Another goal from Wilf (2nd in like 5 minutes). He loves to kill Watford.

I will now state with complete confidence. Palace is getting all three points tonight.

Relegation is a full on Royal Rumble at this point after the Burnley win, especially once you factor in the different number of games the teams have played. Everybody up to Brentford is vulnerable.

Burnely won back to back games in the Prem for the first time in 13 months and have 8 points from their last five games, losing just one in that time. The've gained on 7 points on Leeds and Brentford and 5 on Everton. Losing is a habit you don't want at this time of the season and i think Burnely have turned a corner. Weghorst is a great signing for them. He might not score a load of goals, but he puts in a shift and Dyche knew what he was getting, especially if you coonsider how quickly they got him in after Woods left for Newcastle. Some decent fixtures coming up for them.

Palace (A)
Leicester (H)
Chelsea (H)
Brentford (A)
Southampton(H)
Man CIty (H)
Norwich (A)

As has been mentioned previously, it's a shallow squad, but at the moment they don't have too many injury problems. Nobody thought they'd get 6 points from the Brighton and Spurs games but here we are and it's game on.

A horrific back pass by Gabriel gifted a goal to Wolves. Arsenal has had a few good opportunities that they've failed to take advantage of.
