Speroni confident Palace will shake off losing run

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Julian Speroni is confident of bouncing back from consecutive defeats.

Palace were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea at Selhurst Park on Saturday and Speroni expects a show of character when Neil Warnock's side travel to West Brom this weekend.

"After two defeats in a row, it is so important to bounce back," said the goalkeeper. "We need to show the character of the team and we will see this weekend how we respond. I am not talking about the result, because we may go there and end up losing the game, but I am talking about putting in a good performance.

"We are disappointed with the result against Chelsea but they are a good side and the way they keep the ball is hard to play against. I know the character we have in the dressing room but we have to show that now."
