Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner spoke about Dean Henderson's mistake in Monday's defeat by Nottingham Forest: "He tried to apologise but I didn't allow it.

"It's not to blame anybody, he made such big saves for us this season and last - it happens, it's sport and they are all human.

"He doesn't need to apologise for a mistake he makes. It's always how we deal with them, the reaction of the team gives me a positive feeling for the next games.

"We know the challenges we have and we will need Dean and he will help us for sure."

Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, against a variety of guests.

For week eight, he takes on legendary boxing manager Kellie Maloney.

Sutton's prediction: 1-0

Crystal Palace need the win more, that is for sure. You can tell by listening to their manager Oliver Glasner that he knows he needs a positive result quickly, just to get that spark from last season back.

Glasner wants to play this expansive brand of football but results mean a bit of doubt has crept in, and that is really evident from their performances.

This all points towards a Nottingham Forest home win, which is what I am going with, but the good news for Palace is that every time I predict one of those, they stuff it up - Forest are yet to win at the City Ground this season.

Kellie's prediction: Forest are playing well and Palace need a win. I am going with a draw. 2-2

Oliver Glasner says "it isn't so settled" at Crystal Palace at the moment but they are working hard to turn their performances and results around.

The Eagles are third from bottom having secured just three points from seven games and travel to Nottingham Forest on Monday for their first game following the international break.

"Regarding the results, no, we are not going in the right direction," said Glasner. "We wanted and expected a little bit more.

"The performances for many parts of the games have been competitive but in the end we lose or draw. Sometimes we lose our focus or miss clear chances to get a better result.

"It isn't so settled at the moment and that is what we're working at. We can create more chances and situations to score goals. We can defend better.

"We don't look back. Yes, we analyse but we try to improve day by day. We stick together, work hard and let's improve because then we can get the results."

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner has been speaking to the media before Monday's Premier League game against Nottingham Forest (kick-off 20:00 BST).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• There are no new injury concerns following the international break and Adam Wharton is available.

• More from Glasner on Wharton: "He is ready [to play], but it's always the same that we have to manage him. He saw another specialist, so it's always an up and down. He trained quite well this week and he's in good shape - so it's OK."

• On whether things are going in the right direction: "Regarding the results, no, we are not going in the right direction. We wanted and expected a little bit more. Everything isn't so settled at the moment."

• He said he "tried to switch off" by spending the break with his family in Austria, but his family members said "it's like you're not really here". Glasner added: "That is the fate of a football a manager. Your thoughts are always with your team and what you can influence."

• On what he has been saying to the club during this period: "Stick together, work hard and let's improve because then we can get the results."

• He said they "tried to make the best of the break" and it "is a positive" that they have three days to prepare to face Forest.

After the October international break, the Opta supercomputer has updated its projected final Premier League table.

It is only seven matches into the campaign so much can still change, but the season is beginning to take shape. The supercomputer simulates thousands of seasons and takes the percentage each side finishes in each league position.

Southampton remain most likely to finish bottom but their one point from seven games has seen their chances increasing dramatically from 28.6% to 61%.

A solid start, despite no win yet, has seen Ipswich's probability of finishing 17th creep up from 12% to 15.2% - but a 19th-placed finish has increased from 21.3% to 25.3%.

Leicester's most likely finish has changed from bottom to 18th after their first win under Steve Cooper, while Crystal Palace's poor start has seen their chances of ending in their current position of 18th go from 1.1% to 7.2%.

Wolves finished 18th in 9.7% of simulations before a ball was kicked but the now-bottom side are now at 20.1% to end in that position after a winless first seven games.

Do you know who Palace's fastest player is?

He joined in the summer and tops the chart after seven Premier League games.

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson has revealed he had to charter a private plane so his family could watch him make his first start for England.

Henderson, 27, made his second appearance for the Three Lions against Finland, and, having only appeared as a substitute in the past, it was his first start for the national side.

The former Manchester United goalkeeper has been mourning the death of his father in recent months and featuring for England therefore provided a family occasion he wanted his mother, brother, girlfriend and girlfriend's dad to experience.

"My old man, unfortunately, we lost him in the summer," he said. "So it'd have been great for him to be here to watch me. So it's been emotional.

"I found out on Saturday during training, so it was a bit of a mad one, because obviously I wanted my mum and my missus to come out. So we were trying to do last-minute flights to get them here. To be fair, I had to go all out and get them over here on a [charter] plane.

"But I did it just because I knew that it was such a big thing for the family. I didn't want them to miss it.

"So I was delighted they made it. It was fantastic, they were emotional in the stand. I could see that."

Even though it is still early days in the Premier League season, there are teams standing out for both good and bad reasons.

The side that has impressed me most this campaign so far has been Fulham.

Under Marco Silva this term, with a couple of new signings, they feel a more solid team but have also maintained that element of threat at the other end.

When they look at where they are in the table, it is a perfectly fair reflection of their start.

There will not be many times when a team completely outplays them to the point where it becomes a non-event, so I have found that to be really impressive.

As for the team that have been disappointing and worried me the most, it is Crystal Palace.

They have sold Michael Olise and they lost Joachim Andersen as well. That's two big players across recent seasons, but I would still have expected that by now Palace would have won a league game.

Yes, they have had some tough matches along the way, but I would not expect them to be in the position they are with the low goalscoring record they have after seven games.

With the talent that they have, it is still enough to be doing better and that is a bit of a concern. The fans will know they will continue to try and they will find something, but there will be an element of disappointment and that would be valid.

I did not anticipate the quest for their first league win would be going into October.
