Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson is full of praise for Brighton striker Glenn Murray.

Tonight Palace could face their former striker – now in Brighton colours - and Hodgson admits he has been impressed with the 35-year-old, who has scored seven goals in 14 Premier League appearances for the Seagulls this season.

“I've been very impressed [by Murray] this season. He left a very good impression here, everyone that played with him speaks highly of him.

“He's a threat and we'll have to pay close attention to him."
