PL's new fairytale team continues stunning rise as England star highlights champs' $70m gaffe
"Crystal Palace moved into fourth place in the Premier League as their remarkable rise hit a new high with a 2-1 win against Fulham, while Brighton stopped West Ham climbing out of the relegation zone with a last-gasp 1-1 draw on Sunday. Marc Guehi headed the decisive goal for Palace in the closing minutes at Craven Cottage as Oliver Glasner's side made it four victories from their last six league games."
"For so long one of English football's also-rans, Palace are enjoying a golden period including last season's shock FA Cup final victory over Manchester City and a Community Shield win against Liverpool at the start of this term. The south Londoners are also on track to advance from the UEFA Conference League group phase, but they might have far more illustrious European opponents next season if they can keep their unexpected top four challenge on course."
"Palaces successes this season have come despite them selling Eberechi Eze to Arsenal in a deal worth £67.5m ($A135m) deal. The London side could have also parted ways with Guehi but held firm on their £35 million ($A70m) valuation despite interest from the likes of Liverpool, who could launch another bid for the defender in January."
Crystal Palace beat Fulham 2-1 at Craven Cottage with Marc Guehi heading a late winner, moving Palace into fourth place in the Premier League. The victory marked Palace's fourth win in six league games and lifted them above Chelsea and Everton into Champions League qualification positions. Palace won the FA Cup last season and opened this season with a Community Shield victory over Liverpool. The club are on track to progress from the UEFA Conference League group phase. Palace sold Eberechi Eze to Arsenal for £67.5m but held a £35m valuation for Guehi despite reported Liverpool interest.
