Crystal Palace finds themselves with three players included in a Premier League top-10 list, but it's not the kind of recognition that manager Oliver Glasner would hope for.

The current season has been a struggle for Crystal Palace, plagued by injuries, managerial changes, and inconsistent performances. With just seven games remaining, they hover precariously five points above the relegation zone, unable to secure consecutive victories throughout the campaign.

While there have been standout performers at Selhurst Park, Glasner faces a daunting task as he took over from Roy Hodgson in February, assessing the squad's strengths and weaknesses.

However, amidst the highs and lows of the season, one statistical analysis sheds light on a concerning trend for some Palace players.

Crystal Palace's dominance in an undesirable top-10 list in the Premier League has caught attention. According to WhoScored, three Palace players rank in the top 10 for the biggest decrease in performance ratings since October 6th, 2023. Leading the pack is Joachim Andersen, with a notable decrease of 1.00 in his average match rating. Following him, Odsonne Edouard has seen his rating drop by 0.70, while Marc Guehi comes in tenth with a decrease of 0.52.

This decline in performance raises questions about the reasons behind it. For Andersen, adapting to defensive partner changes and an incident with fans during the Brighton match have contributed to his underwhelming season. Guehi's inclusion in the list is surprising considering Palace's defensive struggles and his own knee injury sidelining him since February. Edouard's diminishing role in the team, slipping behind Jean-Philippe Mateta in the striker hierarchy, has impacted his form after a promising start to the season.

Despite the challenges, there remains an opportunity for these players to redeem themselves in what has been a lackluster season for Crystal Palace.
