COYH.Īndy: Another disappointing performance and one has to ask why? With respect to Everton who deserved their three points against us, Palace should be beating teams or at least not losing to the Toffees and Luton. Arsenal here under the lights, they won’t be looking forward to it. Overall a great performance against the sort of teams that we have to win points from. Osho's return has strengthened us defensively. Kaminski is an outstanding shot stopper but his kicking needs more work. Stuart: Barkley is making a big difference and if he stays fit we have a good chance of staying up. We've let a few points slip since the season started (v Burnley, Wolves, Spurs for instance) so it was good to see that our players’ heads didn’t drop when Palace scored - great comeback to grab three points. Ian: This was a must-win game, and the players delivered. Thomas Kaminski or Tom Lockyer were joint-players of match. A team that play for each other and respect each other will always come out on top. Sue: It was on the cards, it was always going to come. We asked for your thoughts on Saturday's match between Luton and Crystal Palace. Hit 'Follow' at the top to stay up to date with all things Crystal Palace With only three points from the past five matches, the team must avoid sinking further into a winter of fan discontent. The team is still comfortably ahead of the relegation places and is one of the benefactors of the Everton points deduction. In that sense, there's no great injustice in the result at Kenilworth Road, and Roy Hodgson's team have frequently been on the other end of that dynamic. Of course, Luton Town are not obligated to roll over and gift points to any Premier League opposition, even if they look stronger on paper. They head into the busiest part of the fixture calendar - with seven matches in December - with paper-thin options in midfield to manage the workload. Those incidents, coupled with the overall lack of performance, leave Palace in a difficult position once again. However, the non-contact injury to Cheick Doucoure could well be season-ending for a player who is so heavily relied upon. The club will be more hopeful regarding Eberechi Eze's prognosis. The loss of two starters left the team shell-shocked, which arguably they didn't recover from. Just as we thought we were free from overused injury talking points and squad depth issues, Crystal Palace plunged back into the midst of them in the space of five minutes on Saturday.
