Crystal Palace winger Yannick Bolasie is happy to be returning to a winning team.

Bolasie helped DR Congo finish third at the Africa Cup of Nations.

"Crystal Palace have been on the fly at the moment," Bolasie told the Croydon Advertiser. "We've won five games and lost one (under Pardew) so the mood is much higher.

"Hopefully, I can come back and restore even more confidence as well.

"Have I missed the Premier League? You could say that, but I've enjoyed my time (at the AFCON tournament).

"I think my own personal performance has been pretty good. I've got three fair play awards, two Man of the Match awards and a bronze medal, so I think it's gone well.

"It's been a great achievement for us personally and as a nation. I'm really happy because it's been a good tournament."
