The knock he picked up during the City game seemed to slow him down/hinder him for the rest of the match,
He played vs Palace as if he was still inhibited by the issue a bit. I'm pretty sure the issue is as simple as that (not him lacking quality, losing his form etc.).
Up until he got the knock vs City, including early on in that game, he was very much still flying.
You have to hope that the problem isn't anywhere near as serious as his back problem under Ole and you don't run him in to the ground again when he needs to recover. But it''s tough as he's also too important to the team to be without.
