Crystal Palace have been left in a difficult position after Cheick Doucoure has been forced onto the sidelines for an extensive period

Cheick Doucoure is expected to be out of action for up to six months after suffering an Achilles injury during Crystal Palace's defeat to Luton Town last weekend.
The defensive midfielder has been ruled out of the Africa Cup of Nations and there are fears that he will not feature again this season.
Doucoure's extended spell on the treatment table comes a matter of months after he was valued at £70million amid interest from Liverpool.
