Crystal Palace defender Clyne: We just need that breakthrough win

Crystal Palace defender Nathaniel Clyne says the team just needs a breakthrough win to go on a positive run.

While Palace are without a win in seven games now, they have also lost just one of their last six, all against European-chasing opposition.

Clyne noted: “I think there's still a lot of room for improvement.

“We haven't won at home in a long time and I think we need to start picking up points, wins at home, especially for the fans, who deserve it. We're going to keep trying hard and working hard in training and hopefully we can get the next win.

“It's about taking our chances. We haven't really been too clinical in front of goal in our [recent] run of form, and that's something we need to change if we want to pick up all three points. It starts on the training ground and hopefully we can then replicate it on the matchday.

“We're just concentrating on ourselves really, and putting in good performances. We just need to get the win that we fully deserve. On another night we probably would have got the win [against Liverpool] if we played as well as we did.

“We're looking up [the Premier League table] and focusing on the next game."
