Crystal Palace fans furious with Patrick van Aanholt after Leicester defeat

Crystal Palace fans have criticised defender Patrick van Aanholt after his side’s heavy defeat to Leicester City at the weekend.

The Foxes ran out 2-0 winners at Selhurst Park, with the Eagles never really looking like they could threaten Brendan Rodgers’ side.

After the game, many Palace fans took to Twitter to slate van Aanholt, who again seemed to switch off defensively in the defeat.

The fans frustrations here are easy to see, especially when van Aanholt is so good going forward.

However, he desperately needs to improve defensively, else Palace simply have to move on from the Dutchman.

It’s costing Palace too many points now.

matchday.
