Dicks believes his return will boost everyone in the squad and says it is crucial that the big name players are back in first-team contention.
“Hopefully he will have no reaction and be in contention for the game against Crystal Palace.

“It helps having your big players back in the team. We have missed Andy Carroll and Andre Ayew and you need them when things are not going well. They can turn a poor game into a good game with a bit of brilliance."
Ayew has been ruled-out since sustaining a hamstring injury on the opening day of the season.
