Ghana striker Jordan Ayew has been praised by his manager Roy Hodgson for his wonderful display in their English Premier League game on Saturday.
Jordan lasted the full throttle of the game as Crystal Palace defeated Huddersfield 1-0.
'If we're going to have the season we would like to have, you need quality players and when they’re not playing you miss them," Hodgson said in a post-match interview.
''I thought today we were fortunate with those two [Tomkins and Zaha] and to also play Jordan Ayew at centre-forward and bring Cheikhou Kouyate into the team.
"That served us well today and their work-rate, aggressive and determination meant we were able to control large swathes of the game and keep the ball out of our box, at least for long periods."
Ayew was making his second appearance for the Eagles since moving from Swansea City on transfer deadline day.
