Crystal Palace actually started this game well but it was the same familiar outcome after failing to make their dominance count.

They are 17th in the table on seven points from eight games, while they have now conceded 12 goals in their past four league and European matches.

The new manager always had big shoes to fill following the departure of Oliver Glasner, who delivered an FA Cup, Conference League title and Community Shield.

There were boos at the full-time whistle and it remains to be seen how much time Palace will give the former Lens boss, with this result coming a week after the humiliating 5-0 defeat at fierce rivals Brighton.

Palace have two away London derbies next - at Fulham in the last 16 of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, and at improving Tottenham on Saturday.
