Crystal Palace boss Dougie Freedman claims feels the Eagles are finding their form having put the problems of the last couple of years behind them. Palace now have new owners stabilising the club and a promising batch of youngsters coming through.
"I don't know how much progress we have made but we are definitely going in the right direction," said Freedman.
"It was difficult last year and we were playing more cagey football.
"This year we have more freedom and an opportunity to express ourselves. We are heading in the right direction."
