Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson admits their struggle in front of goal is worrying.

Hodgson was speaking after defeat at home to Bournemouth last night.

"We are worried, of course we are. But to score goals you need two things: to get your confidence back and then to produce the combinations, movements and quality in front of goal," he said.

"We created one or two chances in the match, which on another day could have helped us.

"But I agree that we are not currently doing enough in that regard. When one or two players return, it might also help us."
