From the source

Two defeats in a row, against Arsenal in the Premier League and Fenerbahce in the Champions League, is the kind of week that sends supporters searching for a saviour.

For plenty of us, the name that jumps out is Jeremie Frimpong. The Dutch wing-back is edging back towards full fitness, and with a trip to Crystal Palace looming, the big question is whether Andoni Iraola should throw him straight back in or keep him under wraps a little longer.

According to the Daily Mail, Frimpong is now nearly fully fit and could, in an emergency, be involved at Selhurst Park this weekend. The same report says the medical and coaching staff are leaning towards caution, and we think that is exactly the right instinct.
