Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson was pleased with their 1-0 win against Sheffield United.

Odsonne Edouard struck for the 1-0 win.

Hodgson said, "He should take confidence.

“His performance throughout the game was really good in every respect. He held the ball up well and he was a target for us when we wanted to play the ball forward.

“He had a very good game. Now he has scored a goal – and he may say two goals if he wants to contest the offside! It was a good move, I thought, and a good finish. I was disappointed to see it being chalked off.

“When you are working with a player every day like we do we are constantly telling them what we expect from them. We are constantly telling them how to become better as individuals and what you would like to see from them to help the team out with the quality they have.

“We have been looking for what we saw today since that first day back in March."
