Team Updates

Crystal Palace is set to play in European competition for the first time this season while managing their squad amidst rumors regarding players like Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi. Under Oliver Glasner, they are looking to leave a mark in Europe. Their previous FA Cup victory signals a promising future, but questions remain about their consistency.

“Trophies may be forever, but the same cannot be said for the teams that win them.” (Translation: Trophies may remain eternal, but the same cannot be said for the teams that acquire them.)

Crystal Palace’s squad appears ready, yet foreign pressures from European competitions will present new challenges. As they strive for their second top-half finish since returning to the Premier League in the 2013-14 season, all eyes will be on how they manage both domestic leagues and continental matches.
