Key Transfers

IN

Cheick Doucoure / £21m / Lens

Described as "irreplaceable" by his former team mates, the Mali international is a top-class midfield enforcer who should win over the Palace fanbase with his work rate, technical ability and reading of the game. 4/5

IN

Maloclm Ebiowei / Undisclosed / Derby

Continuing the Eagles' successful recruitment blueprint of cherry picking talented youngsters from the EFL, Ebiowei is a direct right winger who netted once and picked up two assists in 11 starts for Derby last season. 4/5

IN

Sam Johnstone / Free / West Brom

The goalkeeping position has been a problem area for Crystal Palace for the last few seasons and Sam Johnstone is a major upgrade. 4/5

IN

Chris Richards / £8.5m / Bayern Munich

Highly thought of young centre-half who was on loan at Hoffenheim last season. Already has eight caps for the USA and looks the type to improve quickly, a good understudy to Marc Guehi and Joachim Andersen. 4/5

Insights

1

Palace recorded a positive goal difference for the first time in their 13 seasons in the Premier League last season.

2

Palace sustained just four home league defeats last season - their fewest losses in the top flight since the 1990-91 campaign.

3

Wilfried Zaha has registered a double-figure league goal tally just three times in 13 seasons. Each of those occasions have been during the last four seasons.

4

Palace posted eight home draws last season which was higher than any other team in the division.


Season Verdict

Our prediction for League finish: 12th

Crystal Palace's 12th place extended their sequence of bottom-half finishes to seven but there were clear signs of progress in their first season under Patrick Vieira. The Eagles should continue to sail comfortably clear of the relegation scrap but without significant investment, it could be tricky to climb higher. They remain heavily reliant on Wilfried Zaha, who turns 30 in November.
