Crystal Palace boss Hodgson insists players haven't put feet up

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson insists his players aren't already planning their summer holidays.

Palace boss Hodgson - whose side were beaten 3-2 by Chelsea at Selhurst Park on Tuesday - said there would be no let-up from his squad during the final weeks of the campaign.

"I certainly don't have any fears about the players to keep going and give their level best in the rest of the games," said Hodgson, whose side have dropped from ninth to 14th in recent weeks.

"I haven't been disappointed with the way the team has performed during these [post-lockdown] games.

"There have been moments when we've done well, in particular the other night when Chelsea knew they'd been very much in a game and were quite fortunate to get away with all three points.

"We'll be trying to get as many points as we possibly can in these last four games.

"It's not going to be easy but it will be important to break the losing sequence."
