Ghanaian winger Jeffrey Schlupp admitted that today’s impressive result and performance “was massive for his team,” with the Eagles ending the run of seven straight defeats.
Despite their poor run of results in seven games,the Ghanaian believes his teammates have done well in the entire season and happy to end the season with a point.
Schlupp : “We’ve been safe quite early on,” he said. “Since the restart, results haven’t been what we wanted but we wanted to finish off the season well and I think we’ve done that today.”
The 27-year-old has missed parts of the season, therefore, given long-term absences like his own, the versatile Palace man is happy the Eagles can, yet again, prepare for Premier League football next season.
“We’ve had some key injuries. All in all, it has been a good season for us; we wanted to maybe challenge for something a bit higher in the league but it didn’t happen.
The last goalscorer for Palace this season in the Premier League expressed his excitement after the Eagles managed to finish this campaign with a draw against Europa League side Tottenham Hotspur.
“We had some disappointing results but it was important for us to finish well and hopefully we can take that into the next season.
“We deserve a good break first and foremost and then we get straight back into it with a shorter pre-season than normal and pick-up where we left-off after today.”
Schlupp spent most of the season on the sidelines with an injury and scored the all important equalizer for the Blue and Reds in their final game of the season to end a seven games losing streak.
