Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner believes Black Stars duo, Jordan Ayew and Jeffrey Schlupp, have quality and talent to start games for The Eagles.
He said this in the lead up to Crystal Palace’s English Premier League game against Newcastle United at 19:00 GMT on Wednesday, April 24 at Selhurst Palace.
Ayew and Schlupp have been consistent starters for Crystal Palace over the years but a combination of injuries, the emergence of Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise and the inspired performance of Jean-Philippe Mateta recently have forced the pair to start games off the bench.
Addressing the issue, Glasner praised the quality of both players on his personnel ahead of the tough test.
“I think we all agree with [Ebere] Eze, [JP] Mateta and [Michael Olise], all these three amazing players are in really good shape. Ebs scores goals, JP scores goals, Michael scores goals – and they assist.”
“Then we also have Jeffrey Schlupp, with Jordan Ayew, with Odsonne Edouard, three players who could start every game because they also deserve it, because of their quality and their talent.”
Crystal Palace beat Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield and recorded a 5-2 win over West Ham United in its last two league outings.
