Defender says there isn’t a lot wrong at Palace, despite poor run

Crystal Palace defender Scott Dann has told South London Today that there isn’t a lot wrong with Crystal Palace, however, there are a couple of things that need to be rectified.

Speaking before he and his teammates jet off for a warm-weather training camp in Spain, Dann highlighted the issues that the Eagles have.

I wouldn’t say there is a lot wrong. We do need to stand up and stick together as a team and try and grind out the win that will allow us to turn that corner.

Dann also spoke about the impact that losing Bacary Sako and Yannick Bolaise to injury is having on the side and the qualities of both players.

We have missed Yannick [Bolasie] and Bakary [Sako] and their pace and power – but that’s not the only reason we haven’t won in the league in so many games. Whoever it is who plays, we need to make sure they are ready, but when the other players come into the side it will give us a lift.

The 26-year-old also admitted that confidence is low around Palace after their recent run of poor form and that the hard work to get them to where they are could all be undone unless they improve things quickly.

We were in a good position two months ago and we’re not in a bad position now, but with the run of results we have had, it doesn’t look great.

Palace currently sit 13th in the Premier League, with 32 points after 26 games. Thier next match is against Tottenham Hotspur in the fifth round of the FA Cup, the third Premier League side they will face in the competition.
