Crystal Palace boss Vieira delighted with form of Edouard

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira is delighted with the form of Odsonne Edouard.

Vieira reserved special praise for Edouard – who assisted Wilfried Zaha for the winner against Wolves – and gave an update on the fitness of James McArthur.

“I am really pleased – [Edouard] is in a really good place at the moment," Vieira said. “He is playing every game and playing with confidence.

“He is linking with the players around him, he is working really hard and he is scoring goals. I'm really pleased with his performances, yes.

“We did not put any timeline on [McArthur's] injuries. He is progressing, and he should start doing some work on the field next week so this is a really good step forwards.

“We will let him take his time and see when he will be back."
