Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira admitted that the home supporters play “a massive part” in how Everton play at Goodison Park but acknowledged that his side did not perform in their 3-0 defeat.
The Eagles boss witnessed the power of ‘The Grand Old Lady’ back in May when the Blues fought back from 2-0 down to defeat his team 3-2 and secure their Premier League status but this encounter was far more one-sided.
Vieira said: “We knew that the fans play a massive part in how they play the game, we were prepared for it but we didn’t perform today.”
