Good question - also makes you think before PVA, we were incredible weak at left back (with only Papa Souare, Jonny Parr and Moxey come to mind as out others this decade) AWB - Tomkins - Dann - PVA Luka - Jedinak Wilf - Cabaye - Bolasie Murray Bench: Guaita, Delaney, Ward, Ledley, Ambrose, Townsend, Kevin Phillips Edited by YoDougie (28 Dec 2019 12.22am)

Interestingly, your Team of Decade leaves out 3 of the 4 players who have appeared most for the team in the Premier League in Ward, McArthur and Puncheon

Ypu all keep mentioning Glenn (amd some even Kevin Phillips for that 1 goal, but he scored like...what?..6 goals in total in the Championship?) and I see no one mentioning Deight Gayle. Now, obviously, Glenn Murray scored a lot more for Palace in the Championship (well, Gayle was only brought in after the 2013 promotion), but after that moment, with Palace in the top division, Dwight played 75 matches in which he scored 25 goals, while Glenn scored just 8 in 37. Just shows the difference between the 2 at top level for Crystal Palace. Sure, Glenn was already getting older, but his age was not the issue actually. He did bag 25 more for Brighton at an advanced age in the PL ((8 were from the penalty spot though, so 17 from open play in 3 years with Brighton in the PL). But those were not for Palace and we're only talking about Palace accomplishments here. Selling Gayle for cheap (12 million) and buying Benteke for 30 million (and a ginourmous salary which I hear they're willing to extend Also, why is Luka in the starting 11? I know he's really overrated by a lot of the people here, but let's face it- Joe Ledley has a similar number of matches for Palace (about 100) and deserves that place about as much as Luka. Is it because he takes penalties?? Ok, he's a decent holding midfielder, I give him that, but not the great player some make him out to be. Plenty of errors since he came. He made captain because of fighting spirit, but that's what plenty of players have. It should be about what players actually did on the pitch, not about who got the most matches for the club and just walked around in Alan Pardew's defeats on a row. Yeah, then Kelly and Ward would be in the Top 10, cause they have "served the club for a long time". But they didn't really contribute more than AWB or PVA in their shorter time at the club. Not even more than Schlupp. My first 11: GK: SPERONI/ GUAITA DF: AWB, TOMKINS, DANN, PVA CMF: CABAYE, JEDINAK, AMF: PUNCHEON/TOWNSEND, ZAHA, BOLASIE AT: DWIGHT GAYLE/ MURRAY I'm pretty sure Cahill and Sakho will be on that list in a few years if they stay at Palace. McArthur is a good substitute for Cabaye. Even Milivojevic or Ledley for Jedinak.
