So Arsene Wenger was right. In the
moments after Arsenal had secured their place in the FA Cup final, he
predicted with certainty that Everton would falter when the pressure
increased.
Not even in Wenger's dreams, though, could he have foreseen Everton make such a startling blunder at the first hurdle.
From
being in control of their destiny, knowing five wins from five games
would secure a place in the Champions League, Everton are now relying on
favours after being unceremoniously flattened by Crystal Palace at
Goodison Park.
Palace
were brilliant in extending their winning spree to a fourth game and
securing the their top-flight status for next season; goals from Jason
Puncheon, Scott Dann and Cameron Jerome gave them a 3-2 verdict that,
once again, highlighted the outstanding work Pulis has overseen at
Selhurst Park.
