Competing in the Premier League is indeed difficult because every team needs to be more consistent from the start of the season to the end. But I'm eager to see how Crystal Palace performs next season, even if you still have doubts about their ability. However, I'm quite the opposite, because with such a surprising result, they certainly have the ability to compete at a more intense level in the Premier League next season.
In recent seasons Crystal Palace have consistently finished in the top 10 or lower well that is proof that they are not a team to be underestimated even they are better than Manchester United and Tottenham based on last season's standings, but no matter how great they are I don't think they can compete in the top 6 because in the Premier League there are still many other teams that are better.
It's true that Crystal Palace beat Liverpool a few hours ago but we can't use that as a benchmark for the competition in the EPL there are many reasons for that. To see Crystal Palace performance next season we have to wait until mid-season, it's an ideal time to monitor EPL teams.
It's great that they won the Community Shield; to say the team is weak would be a huge mistake. Just because they won against Liverpool doesn't mean they're a perfect team, but I'm sure they'll put up a good fight against many big teams in crucial league matches next season. The upcoming matches against Crystal Palace in the title race will be crucial, I'm sure.
