I have qualities to cause problems to defenders, says Crystal Palace forward Jordan Ayew

Ghanaian striker forward Jordan Ayew says he has qualities to cause defenders problems and believes he has more to offer Crystal Palace fans.

Ayew has won three man of the match performances for the Eagles so far this season and has scored three goals times for the club in the Premier League.

Speaking to the Mirror Sports, the 28-year-old revealed he might not be like the old fashioned strikers but I have some qualities that can cause problems to defenders.

“Every footballer thrives on confidence and for us strikers we have a duty to put the ball in the back of the net,” he told Mirror Sports.

“When you don’t do that and don’t play well, of course the fans have the right to demand more from you. Last season was not the best and I want to correct that this season.

“For me, I don’t think I have done something big yet. I just have to keep working and the goals will continue coming.

"All I want the fans to know is that I might not be like the old fashioned strikers who are big and tall, but I have some qualities that can cause problems to defenders and I am working hard to show my full potential."

Jordan Ayew will be leading the attack of Crystal Palace when they host champions Manchester City in the EPL this afternoon.
