Crystal Palace must beware former favourite Yannick Bolasie

Friday night's match at Everton will feel strange for Crystal Palace fans, as they face the enigmatic Yannick Bolasie for the first time since his summer move to Merseyside. He delighted and frustrated in equal measure during his time in south London but will always be held in high regard by supporters at Selhurst Park.

Bolasie, like so many players that won Palace promotion to the Premier League back in 2012-13, arrived at the club as an outcast. Bristol City, his former club, were willing to let him go for just £250,000. Hindsight would tell you that was a foolish decision, however even at that stage, the Congolese winger's performances were so inconsistent you could understand the thinking in the decision to sell him.
