Ghanaian midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp has backed his compatriot Jordan Ayew to score more goals for Crystal Palace after netting the winner against Aston Villa on Saturday at the Selhurst Park.
The 27-year-old scored in the 73rd minute of the game to help secure all points for the Eagles in their matchday four fixture.
The former Swansea City striker was on target for the second game running and through the assist of Jeffrey Schlupp, who revealed that Villa's red card helped Palace switch their formation secure the maximum points.
"Villa changed their shape. Tactically we had to adjust and I feel we did that. They made it hard for us of course but I think we got the three points and the win that we deserved," he said in a post-match interview.
"They change shape so we have to adapt to that of course but we wanted to keep the momentum going. We were playing the majority of the half in their half [of the pitch] and we wanted to keep that going so we didn’t want to change too much tactically, apart from attacking the goal and we did that.
"We want our strikers to be in and amongst the goals, every game and Jordan’s got the touch at the minute. We’re going to keep feeding him, hoping he’ll score many more."
The win lifted Crystal Palace to 4th on the league table with seven points after only four matches played.
Crystal Palace will play Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium after the international break on September 14.
