Do you know, I started this and then bottled it. Of the likely starting 11, only Mitchell can be left out. And I bet he plays an absolute blinder next season! The one reservation I have is that, with the squad on the up, where is the room for academy graduates? Agree with all that, including the sentiment and therefore prediction for Mitchell. As for academy graduates, I would encourage them to strive for fitting Glasner's system as opposed to shining individually. Bit of an odd thought however I do wonder if within Glasner's approach, where the team is collectively more valuable than the individual, we may well become the kind of club that sells players upwards who then do not shine elsewhere as they might have done under Glasner? Just a thought...
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Get the best ones out on loan, if they can shine in the Championship at 18/19 they might be good enough.

In my humble opinion as good as Eze, Olise, Mateta are it is Wharton as number one for me as those three all require a supply an initial line.

Wharton Really, decent players that they are, i don't see them getting in the 11, the problem is if Wharton and Doucoure gel together, my opinion only

Wharton Much as everyone loves huuuuuughes, he certainly grew on me late on last season, he won’t even be in the team if everyone’s fit……and not sold

Just a thought... I wonder if this may apply to Olise and Eze? Fantastic together and under OG... but singular and under a different system?

Eze and Olise are Great players together, apart I think there is a significant drop. One compliments the other, especially Eze who looks world class when playing with Olise. No idea why, possibly one makes more space for the other. Long may it continue I say.

Which are the 5 most important players for Palace next season, not best, but important, in order. That is with the understanding that Kamada and Ryad are in the bag. I have now slightly altered my 5 to, 1. Mateta

Munoz Munoz and Wharton first for me because we’ve looked a totally different side with them, then Olise because I think he’s involved more than Eze in general through games, has a bit more of an impact, and Andersen because we all see last season when he had a dip in form we shipped goals, although the change in formation helped with that as well I think Decoure is worthy of that list.
