Player ratings from Craven Cottage as Eagles get their act together to win at Fulham once more

The gloves were off : But how did they all fare? Crystal Palace booked their place in the last eight of the Carabao Cup with a 1-0 victory at Fulham on Wednesday night. Eddie Nketiah’s first-half goal was enough to settle the contest and ease at least some of the pressure on Eagles boss Pierre Sage. It is the first time that Fulham, who came into the derby off the back of successive Premier League wins, had failed to score at Craven Cottage this season. Here are the ratings for both teams....

Fulham flop against Crystal Palace yet again as concerns grow over lack of firepower

Hamming it up. The home end before kick-off : Picture by @YTJourno Carabao Cup Fourth Round Fulham (0) 0 Crystal Palace (1) 1 Nketiah 37 For Fulham, it was a case of 'It's happened again.' They have come to really dread a visit from the Eagles - having lost the last four to their south London rivals and having failed to beat them by the Thames since 2005 - a run of nine games before this latest reverse. Once again Palace prevailed - as they did not so long ago in winning a Premier League...

Barnet boss pleads for bigger crowds as Bees continue to punch above their weight

Dean Brennan speaking after Tuesday night's 3-1 victory at the Hive : Picture by @YTJourno Barnet boss Dean Brennan believes his club needs to do more to entice more fans to the Hive if they are to make progress and emulate south London rivals Bromley in climbing out of League Two.

From dead man walking to centre stage: Zabarnyi's unlikely PSG turnaround makes it harder for Fulham, Chelsea and Crystal Palace now: "I am learning French..."

Exclusive by Alessandro Schiavone in Paris Ligue 1 PSG 2-0 Lyon Goals: Mayulu 72', Godts 84' How can anyone go from being one of the Premier League’s top-performing centre-backs to a Ligue 1 struggler? This is the baffling case of ex-Bournemouth star Illia Zabarnyi, who was once on Chelsea and Tottenham’s wishlist. Luis Enrique had as much faith in him as Mikel Arteta currently has in Viktor Gyokeres. And the lack of playing time in big matches was a reflection of that. The Ukrainian star was...

Talking points as misfiring Crystal Palace seek cup redemption against Fulham

Crystal Palace's disappointment continues Sunk by Newcastle United, there was a muted feeling surrounding Selhurst Park following Sunday's 2-0 defeat. A lack of clinical execution and clear signs of European fatigue has cost the Eagles again. The second-half collapse illustrated such tiredness and leaves the club's management with plenty of questions to answer ahead of their midweek EFL Cup clash against Fulham. The loss to the Magpies is also a significant dent to manager Pierre Sage,...

EFL roundup: Kone makes history as QPR run riot - Late goal denies Bromley win as they begin life without Woody

Loftus Road was buzzing on Saturday as Rangers ran riot Richard Kone's star turn had QPR historians thumbing through their record books as the men from W12 came up with a statement win at Loftus Road. The striker scored a hat-trick inside the first 16 minutes to blow away high-riding Swansea City, while Jimmy Dunne added two more to make it a miserable visit for the Welshmen. It is thought to be the third quickest hat-trick from the start of a match in EFL history and the fastest since 1971...

Exclusive! Dayot Upamecano: I am rooting for an ex Tottenham superstar to win the Ballon d'Or but won't choose between him and Mbappé

Sage dead bats the concerns at Palace as Prem's traditional sack season approaches

Sage addresses the issue in the post-match press conference : Picture by Julian Taylor His short tenure has been far from disastrous up to now, but there is little doubt that the heat is on for Pierre Sage after a troubling home defeat to fellow strugglers Newcastle United. Sunday afternoon's 2-0 defeat to the Magpies at Selhurst Park leaves the Eagles one point and one place above the relegation trapdoor and having to mix the demands of chasing Premier League points with keeping up a Europa...

Palace finding the going tough as Newcastle's change of gears takes contest away from them

Battle of two early-season strugglers Premier League Crystal Palace (0) 0 Newcastle United (0) 2 Osula 47, Barnes 58 We waited patiently for something to happen. And when it did it was not good news for the Eagles. After a first half in which very little happened - Daichi Kamada and Jean-Philippe Mateta both off target with Palace's best chances - the Geordies upped the tempo to seize control. Jacob Murphy turned Jaydee Canvot to send in a beautiful cross that William Osula turned in at the...

Gunners comfortably see off Everton at Emirates

ARSENAL eased their way past Everton 2-0 at a soaking wet Emirates Stadium to go level on points with Manchester City. Ezri Konsa scrambled his side ahead after only seven minutes before Gabriel’s header wrapped up victory midway through the second half. Mikel Arteta made a handful of changes from Wednesday’s 2-2 Champions League draw in Munich. There were starts for Ben White, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Mikel Merino, Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres. Bukayo Saka missed out through injury while...
