'Rubbish game' but Guéhi content with valuable point

Palace bounced back from Saturday's 5-1 home hammering at the hands of Arsenal by claiming a creditable point at the Vitality Stadium.

In an even contest of few clear chances, neither Palace's goalkeeper, Dean Henderson, nor his Bournemouth counterpart, Kepa Arrizabalaga, was seriously troubled, prompting Guéhi to sympathise with fans tuning in on television.

"To be honest, it was a rubbish game," the England defender told Amazon Prime. "Boring for the neutral, 0-0, not what you want to see on Boxing Day, but we'll take it! Considering what happened last game, it's kind of all you can ask for, really, a point away against a good side, so we'll take it. [A clean sheet] is positive, but we can always do better. We can always improve, so that's the goal."

If we take the view that Southampton are doomed - as a reminder, no club has ever stayed in the Premier League with such a lowly points tally at this stage of the season - then small positives must be sought wherever possible for the beleaguered regulars at St Mary's.
