Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola reserved special praises for Jordan Ayew after his side had the edge over Ayew’s Crystal Palace side during their clash in the English Premier League.
Erling Haaland scored a second-half penalty to keep the pressure on league leaders Arsenal as City left Selhurst Park with a 1-0 win.
Obviously thrilled by the opposition offered by Crystal Palace and the input of Jordan Ayew and Zaha, Guardiola reckons they are incredible players. He acknowledged Ayew’s pace and the plenty of problems he created against his team as Man City do everything to topple Arsenal from the summit of the league.
“It is always tricky playing here [Selhurst Park]. We are always confident playing at home but I always have this belief that it is always tricky here,” the Manchester City boss told Sky Sports.
“The way they play and run is just incredible. Jordan Ayew and Zaha are incredible players. They are always running and creating spaces for the team.”
Despite netting only one goal in the ongoing campaign, Ayew has been doing well for his team to stay afloat and remain in the league for next season.
