He told Palace's website: "It's too many awards for me, I don't feel that important!

"The most important ones are the players, because again, they have to perform on the pitch, they have to do all the stuff, and we are supporting them.

"For me it's not just September. We were unbeaten in August, and it was a little bit trickier after the international break, players arriving very late. But then, just continuing how we started this season, it was great to see.

"And, of course, every game unbeaten, every win, increases the confidence, the self-confidence, and this is what you need, because you can't achieve anything in life – not in football, in sports, in life – if you don't believe that you are able to do it.

"That's the foundation of everything: that you trust yourself, you have the confidence to win, to achieve things in life, if you have this. And, of course, you need some successes on this route, you need some positive results, whatever it is.

"It's not so difficult, it's always the same: you need to trust yourself, you need confidence, and this helps to achieve your goals."
