da marjack bet: Crystal Palace secured a 12th-placed finish with their thrilling 5-3 victory over Bournemouth on the final day and, having ended their term on a solid run of form once again, will be targeting a much stronger start to the 2019/20 campaign in the hope that they can make the top ten next time around.
With Michy Batshuayi returning to Chelsea, it’s clear that the Eagles need a new striker this summer if they’re to realise their ambition of competing with the likes of Leicester and West Ham, although club legend Clinton Morrison has indicated that the key to such an achievement is already at the club.
What did he say?
Well, speaking to Football London, the former striker said:
“I feel we are good enough to finish in the top half of the table, but I think we have got to try and keep hold of Wilf (Zaha).
“He is the key to everything. I know people put a lot of onus on him, but he is a special player.
“The fans love him, the young kids love him and he is a role model and everyone looks up to him. He is a nice guy too.”
Keeping the ‘key’
The culmination of the season at Selhurst Park a week-and-a-half ago means Zaha exit rumours have begun to rear their ugly heads again, although this time the player has added fuel to the fire by expressing his desire to play Champions League football.
Currently in his prime, the 26-year-old will undoubtedly have no shortage of suitors in the coming months having had another excellent campaign in red and blue, but the Eagles won’t let him fly the nest that easily.

The south London outfit reportedly value their star man at an eye-watering £100m – a fee Spurs have already baulked at – and Morrison seems to think that Palace must not budge on their big asking price if they want to improve on their 2018/19 campaign next season.
The number 11 proved his indispensability to the Eagles in the term just gone, scoring 10 goals and recording 10 assists – tallies Palace will struggle greatly to replace should they lose him for anything less than their reported nine-figure valuation – so they can hardly be blamed for setting what is seen as an astronomical price by anyone outside the club.
