Crystal Palace midfielder James McArthur recognises they're rank outsiders against Manchester City this weekend.

The Scot, however, has outlined how they can win.

They've got world-class players right throughout the team they're one of the best teams in the world," McArthur told Palace's website.

We need to stop their threats all over the park, and do everything right. There's no better team in the league for dominating possession, so I think it's important we get in their faces and make it an uncomfortable place to come to.

We'll need to stick together. We know that they're going to have a lot of the ball, so we won't start running out of position. When we get the ball, we'll be patient. We'll have a good gameplan and we'll stick to it. If we do that, we've shown before we can beat these teams.

It's about everyone doing their job and working together as a team. Even if we man-mark Kevin de Bruyne out of the game, for example, it doesn't mean you're going to win because the rest of their players are very, very good but it's 11 v 11 at the end of the day."

At least on the pitch at Selhurst Park, it will be - but off it...

Our fans are unbelievable, and we are going to need them. They have been so patient when we know we're not on a good run.

We need them more than ever, and we need them to stick with us. For me, there's no better place than Selhurst Park under the lights.

"If the fans keep with us and keep driving us on, we will turn it around, and we will get wins."
