So, I've been racking my brain, trying to come up with a prediction for Palace's finish this season. Most of the pundits have the Eagles back down to the Championship by the end of the season in May, although I did see one soul pick the Eagles to avoid being relegation fodder.
I'd like to think the club can avoid the yo-yo hoodoo (no pun or rhyme intended) that's plagued them in 1992/93, 94/95, 97/98, and 2004/05. Gosh, that's hard to look at, even now.
Obviously, the club needed offensive weapons, with Wilf Zaha gone to United and Glenn Murray out for the foreseeable future.
Re-signing playoff final hero Kevin Phillips will be a good boost in terms of leadership for CPFC, especially for the young guns on the team.
Jose Campana, the Sevilla signing, is an intriguing one, as is Marouane Chamakh, the latter being with Arsenal, always a force to be reckoned with.
I have no issues with the defense, and of course, Speroni's solid in between the sticks.
So, what do you think? Am I drinking too much of the Kool-Aid? 16th sounds pretty reasonable to me.
