How far can we progress this season?

To me, we now have the best ever Palace squad in terms of quality. We have one often best managers in our history in charge. We have a limited number of signings to integrate into the squad, whom compliment the existing talent. Our best player has just signed a five year contract. The club and fans are pretty much aligned with other and there is confidence and a feel good factor around the place.

Therefore, what do we think this will translate into? Could we win something, finish in the European spots or, do a ‘typical Palace’ and create some unnecessary controversy or problem which details all the progress to date, with us getting relegated on the last day of the season by a virtue of a single goal difference total?

If we play to our abilities and don’t suffer from injuries, we could conceivably qualify for Europe. I would actually be very happy with a mid table and a cup run, consolidation/development and see a few young talents such as Kirby come through, plus beating the scum twice & making Mourinho even more unhappy.

I think we'll still be bottom half but steer clear of the drop zone for most of the season. Something like 12th.

I must say I hate it when the BBS gets confident
I would love top seven but will settle for Carabao Cup win and a Europa league spot and a boring league mud table season

Or CL qualification������

A safe League position and a cup win for Roy would be my idea of a great season. Securing EPL safety with 4 games to spare would be a better than usual result.

We finally have a bit of stability with a good chairman and a good manager and a good playing squad but this is Crystal Palace and anything that possibly can go wrong probably will , yes we have a good team but all the other premier league teams have also improved , i feel we are still a bit light up front especially if Benteke doesn't improve , the pessimistic Palace fan in me says I'll be happy with 17th and another season in the prem with all the riches and world wide publisaty it brings our club .

Top half depending on injuries, and there always are some. Cup run depends on who we draw

Can we gain more than 13 points from the 'Big 6' as we did in Season 2014-15?

Can we earn more than the 1 point we have won against Man Utd since our promotion in 2013?

Confident. We narrowly miss out on a Europa league place.

If the stars align for us like they did for Leicester a couple of seasons back, then there is a chance we could break into the top six. Man City and Liverpool I feel are destined for a very good season, but question marks hang over the other 4.

With the exception of Liverpool, relatively speaking our first 9 fixtures this season are decent. I would not be surprised to find us in the top 4 before we play Arsenal. Despite the fact I rate the current Liverpool team, I think we could upset them on Monday and that will really get the confidence up for the games that follow.

Should be far too strong to be in a relegation dogfight this season - famous last words! Ideal season to have a serious crack at winning a cup competition this time, we'll have to win something in my lifetime.
