I think it's fair to say that I am officially worried about Palace. I can easily see us being dragged down into a relegation battle. We're not scoring many goals, Zaha is injured (and hasn't signed a new contract) and we're not getting many points. Although I think there are worse teams than us, the relegation fight seems wide open this year with any number of teams below us liable to string together some results or pick up points against each other. The next run of games could be decisive: Brighton, Brentford, Liverpool, Villa, Man City, Arsenal. All teams above us, all teams that could (and should?) beat us (arguably, and shockingly, Liverpool might be our best chance of getting some points!). By the end of March, we might be in the thick of a relegation battle - and I'm not sure we've got the backbone to survive it.
