I will try not to sound uneducated about Palace, but it seems to be that you've got quite a promising squad, Zaha, Galye, Hiram Boateng. And your doing well compared to other team with the same squad caliber, no?
Along the flanks, Puncheon and Bolasie are usually deployed. Instead of Campbell, I wish Gayle would play upfront more often. He performed well against Liverpool, but came off injured against Swansea yesterday. I hope he recovers soon.
As for Boateng, I am not sure if he has played any premier league games for Crystal Palace thus far.

To be fair Pulis hadn't taken charge until late November last season and you could argue that the club is still in transition. Guess we'll have to judge them based on the next 3-4 games in the league although I agree that they haven't looked convincing defensively at all this season and they'll have to be in order to get points off of the big teams like they did last season. Though I don't think Warnock as a replacement for Pulis and I never expected him to do well, he's never succeeded in the Premier League whereas Pulis has done it consistently. Warnock also doesn't seem like the kind of character to accept when decisions go against him, that can have a negative effect on his players given how they might just assume they aren't winning due to poor luck rather than the fact they haven't done enough/made mistakes.
Crystal Palace was in a slump until the win against Liverpool (who was in a greater slump). Against Swansea yesterday, the team managed to secure a draw. Hopefully, Palace will be able to secure more points in the upcoming matches. Their work rate, determination and of course the fans, are incredible. Not saying just because I am a Palace supporter.
