Schlupp delighted helping Crystal Palace to victory over Sheffield Utd

Jeffrey Schlupp was delighted to be part of Crystal Palace's 2-0 defeat of Sheffield United.

With four games of the season remaining, Palace secured mathematical safety against the Blades, and for Schlupp, that comes as part and parcel of a strong end to the campaign:

"First of all, it was a good performance," he told Palace TV. "We wanted to come and come in on the front foot, press high up the pitch and I felt we did that well. We created chances and managed to score two goals as well. We obviously want to finish the season off well and I think, looking at the last few games, we've started well here and want to keep that going.

"I've had a bit of a stop/start season. I've kept fit, I want to keep fit and I've had to be a bit patient - coming back from injury, obviously getting my fitness up. I'm happy to have got through 70 minutes today and hopefully I can get some more minutes and some more starts under my belt to finish the season off strongly."
