I knew it was bad, but not that bad!

Anyway, ultimately a respectable season, with a level of consistency i.e regularly winning away, and regularly not winning at home. Still, 46pts or possibly 49 points would be a good tally.

At home, we have been awful this season but despite that, we could still get our highest points total in the PL along with scoring the best goal in the only away win achieved at the Etihad all season.
We now have a homegrown defensive superstar and the promise of a new main stand in the near future.

Let's just enjoy this moment because bad news is always just around the corner in football.

Highest ever points tally and never in danger of relegation (despite what overcautious fans on here felt) so I think this is progress. Feels weird because we were so often ‘meh’ and so often ‘wow’.

If there is a criticism of Roy it’s that we really don’t take our foot off the brake enough at times. Our attacking play was often scintillating but we didn’t see this enough in the early part of the season (nor at home, apart from yesterday!). If we can nail our home form and feel confident to let the shackles off a tad more, top half and a cup run would be a nice ambitious target for next season assuming we have the personnel. Obviously, survival/midtable is our realistic target but next season will be our 7th consecutive season in the PL so see if we can build (without being all Charlton about it).

We might have dropped a place from 11th last season to 12th but we won more games than last season,scored 6 more goals, conceded 2 fewer and attained 5 more points.

And who can forget that 3-2 win at Man C ! Not forgetting the win by the same scoreline at Arsenal who prior to this game had won their previous 8 home games.The win at Newcastle who had won their previous 5 home games which included a 2-1 defeat of Man C.

Our turgid home form has been well documented so I have no desire to dwell on it ! Another season in the PL !

Yes that does put things into perspective

Over a 38 game season the table really doesn't lie. We are where we are and we ended up only one point behind Watford and three behind West Ham and Leicester.

It is a great season and as much as we can expect IMO.

Don't people realize how much money needs to be spent to start mixing it with Everton, Wolves & even West Ham?!?! Millions upon millions which we don't have so on that basis it's another great season for Palace ...

Watford are a bit of an enigma and fair play to them. They're the exception not the rule.

Well done Roy & the boys! A job well done ...

This is true, although tbh I have wanted no real relegation concerns like we’ve had every season before so I’ve had my wish that many others also had.

I’d just like to see from us than the 3 defending midfielders, no kouyate, who I think asks questions of opposition, 2 wide players, no overlapping and us in possession not doing much because we never take the initiative when there aren’t 10 of the opposition behind the ball at home.

Maybe Myer’s 2nd season will be better. Roy has given him a bit of a run. I don’t think he’s received the ball much in attacking areas though. Almost scored a first time effort v Bournemouth.

Agreed. Couldn't have said it better myself.

A good season imo, but not quite ''remarkable''.
We've had the annual flirting with relegation (that was never going to happen) which always adds some spice, a more than decent Cup-run and a few good memories here and there.
Home form obviously needs to improve for the poor souls that attend but overall, all things considered it's been ok.
