Crystal Palace beat Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday .

It is the first time Palace have won a major trophy in their history.

The Eagles' fans drowned out the City supporters for most of the game.

They reminded me of the Newcastle fans with the way they roared their team on from the moment they got into the ground.

I'm amazed Erling Haaland gave up a penalty, but I am in his shoes.

City are in sixth place in the Premier League and out of the Champions League places.

They have got a massive Premier League game against Bournemouth on Tuesday .

Pep Guardiola's side did not move the Palace defence around enough in the second half .

But they have come to the end of their period of dominance and some fresh faces are needed.
