Soares believes in Palace

Crystal Palace midfielder Tom Soares insists the Eagles can still win promotion to the Premiership despite their inconsistent start to the season.
Palace have won just six matches since Peter Taylor took charge in the summer and the pre-season promotion favourites are currently 18th in the Championship table.
But with the Selhurst Park club now unbeaten in their last three games, Soares believes they have started to turn the corner.
"If we can keep defending the way we have been, we will start scoring more at the other end, and people will start talking about promotion again," he told the South London Press
"A big reason for my form this season has been the manager, who showed a lot of belief in my abilities.
"I prefer to play in the centre of midfield, and he has given me that chance over the last few weeks.
"I would like to think I have repaid his faith by showing him what I am capable of."
