Neil Warnock insists Crystal Palace should not fear any Premier League team after Sunday’s 3-2 win against Everton.

The Eagles claimed their first league victory of the season, hitting back with goals from Mile Jedinak, Fraizer Campbell and Yannick Bolasie after falling behind in the early stages at Goodison Park.

Warnock, who is yet to suffer defeat since taking charge, believes results elsewhere have shown that Palace can pick up points anywhere in the coming months.

"I think every fixture in this league is there to get points from,” he said.

"I know on the day most teams will get beaten by the top three or four in the league but teams like ourselves can play home or away and give a good account of themselves.

"It seems to me that apart from the top four or five we have a wide open Premier League and one we can enjoy being part of. Look at the results on Sunday. Anyone is capable of beating anyone else."

Bolasie had been rested for the recent 0-0 draw against Burnley after international duty, but marked his return to the side with a rare goal.

The winger is excited about the squad, with new signings James McArthur, Martin Kelly and Campbell all proving their worth to Palace.

"It's a joy to play in this team," Bolasie told the club's official website.

"It is a huge lift for us. We haven't lost in three games so we will be looking to carry that on and move forward from here."
