Crystal Palace managed to shock the current Premier League champions with a couple of goals before the first hour of playing time, giving Alan Pardew's boys their third straight victory, getting them closer to the upper portion of the standings. Glen Murray and Jason Puncheon scored for the hosts, who seemed quite pleased after today's shocking win. On the other hand, Manuel Pellegrini and his crew enjoyed most of the game's possession, but their lonely goal came thanks to Yaya Toure's shot from outside the box. Now, Manchester City is fourth in the Premier League, trailing Jose Mourinho's Chelsea by nine points, and practically surrendering their title chances.
After being dismissed from each and every tournament they played, Manchester City's fans are blaming Manuel Pellegrini for the team's misfortune. The Sky Blues' fans believe the Chilean lacked the expertise to lead a cast full of stars to excellence, being the target of most of the mockery surrounding the team. Others blame players such as Samir Nasri and Bacary Sagna, and even more surprisingly, Sergio Agüero has had to endure some trolling due to his 511 minutes without a goal in every competition.

Man City players have given up. Some of their players probably know their time at City has come to an end. Massive clearout needed

Man City haven't won an away PL game when trailing at half time for 20 years. I love a stat but that is absolutely incredible.
