Congratulations to Crystal Palace for winning this year’s community shield trophy, they have gone against all odds to defeat Liverpool after defeating Manchester City to win the FA cup trophy last season. I must commend Oliver Glasner for a great job with this Palace team and the goalkeeper Dean Henderson for his heroic performance to help Palace achieve this milestone.
This shows that Crystal Palace performance is improving overtime, and they are becoming stronger. They defeated two big clubs in EPL and lifted up the trophy at the end of last season and at the beginning of this season. We need to be on a watch for this club because they might come out with an unexpected performance to surprise us this season. I really love their confidence.
Crystal Palace has always been a strong club, and they always perform well in the Premier League, but their weakness is just that they don't have a good squad depth to compete for the Premier League title or make it to the top 4 in the Premier League to play in the UEFA Champions League competition. We have seen over the years how small clubs in the Premier League perform against big clubs every season, so I am expecting the upcoming Premier League season to be fierce, and I will not be surprised if big clubs in the Premier League find it difficult to win against small clubs because that's the nature of the Premier League.
