Crystal Palace best XI: Build the Eagles' greatest team from across the decades

With the Premier League still waiting to return amid the Covid-19 crisis, supporters across the country have been treated to plenty of nostalgia to keep them going during the game’s shutdown.

Conversations, and inevitably, arguments, over 'Best XIs' have helped keep us entertained and here at Standard Sport, we want to know what you think, Crystal Palace fans.

Who would be included in your greatest-ever Eagles XI?

Firstly, we'll be asking you to pick from which decade - beginning in the 1950s - you would like each area of the team to be sourced, before then presenting you with the best players and combinations from that specific time period.

Options in attack could be a tough one with three of Palace's best forward talents of recent times in Ian Wright, Andy Johnson and Wilfried Zaha spread out across the last three decades.

Of course, every great team requires a manager of similar stature, and you can also select from our options of the best Palace bosses including the likes of Steve Coppell and Roy Hodgson.

Palace fans, vote in the poll above!
