Wilfried Zaha was Crystal Palace's undisputed FIFA king - but could Andros Townsend knock him off his perch? Tubes went to find out...

Palace, who face Everton on Friday Night Football, came from two goals down to beat Sunderland last weekend, extending their unbeaten Premier League run to four matches.

And Townsend, a summer signing from Newcastle, believes Palace fans are starting to see his best form after a slow start.

"It was good to get the transfer done early and I pretty much had the whole pre-season to get to know the boys before the first game," Townsend told Tubes. 

"I felt like I'd been here a while before the first match. It took me a while to get going but I think the Stoke game was when I kind of announced myself.

"I got my first goal, which was a relief, and an assist. I was delighted with that, but I need to kick on now and be more effective, like I was towards the end of last season."

Townsend's team-mate Zaha was Palace's best player on last season's FIFA video game - but would he keep the crown on FIFA 17?
