Premier League: Crystal Palace's Kevin Phillips to discuss future over Christmas

The future of Kevin Phillips at Crystal Palace hangs in the balance with the striker set for contract talks on Christmas Day.

High winds and driving rain made Monday's training all-but a wash-out, but Pulis said his players coped admirably. He said: "You expect a bit of weather in England, everybody talks about the weather in England, what surprises me is that everyone is surprised. We just walked through stuff today instead of running through. "We couldn't get the balls to stay still, so we walked through stuff and moved through stuff. The players have been okay with that, they have been fine."
